Chromotherapy
The Forgotten Medicine of Light: Chromotherapy at beem® Light Sauna
In a world increasingly obsessed with quick fixes and synthetic solutions, few wellness practices offer the elegant simplicity and time-honored credibility of chromotherapy. At beem® Light Sauna, chromotherapy is not a sideshow to our infrared light sauna offerings. It is an integral component of a deeply considered, multi-sensory healing experience.
Though sometimes dismissed as mystical or niche, chromotherapy is rooted in centuries-old traditions and now finds a stronghold in contemporary wellness backed by emerging science. When combined with the benefits of infrared light therapy, chromotherapy offers a gentle and precise way to support both body and mind.
The Science Behind Chromotherapy
Chromotherapy, also referred to as color therapy, utilizes wavelengths of visible light to encourage balance within the body’s energetic and physiological systems. Each color possesses a distinct vibrational frequency, which can activate targeted responses when absorbed through the skin and eyes.
More than mere mood influencers, colors influence circadian rhythms, hormone production, neural activity, and cellular regeneration. When administered in a controlled therapeutic setting, such as a light therapy sauna, colours become tools of transformation: sophisticated instruments of recalibration for mind, body, and spirit. Within the walls of beem®, chromotherapy is offered as science in service of serenity.
Chromotherapy, color by color
A Spectrum of Therapeutic Potential
Choose a color for your infrared sauna session. Tap each one to see how it contributes to healing, renewal and equilibrium.
Invigorating
Red
Invigorating and primal, red light enhances circulation and energizes tired systems. It’s particularly supportive of those experiencing chronic fatigue or struggling with low mood and stamina.
Uplifting
Orange
Orange invigorates digestion, stimulates creativity, and uplifts the emotional landscape. It fosters joy and helps recalibrate those who feel disconnected or uninspired. Within a light therapy sauna, orange is the ember of inner fire.
Bright & focusing
Yellow
Bright and uplifting and associated with mental agility, yellow stimulates concentration and clarity and also assists in clearing the skin.
Grounding
Green
The color of nature and regeneration, green invites emotional relaxation and has shown potential in decreasing anxiety and depressive states. In chromotherapy, green is often the anchor, the grounding force.
Clarifying
Turquoise
This hue evokes clarity and purification. Turquoise light therapy aids and supports skin rejuvenation and stress relief, especially when aligned with infrared sauna detoxification protocols aimed at eliminating environmental toxins and heavy metals.
Cooling & calming
Blue
Cooling and contemplative, blue light is nature’s sedative. It assists in reducing inflammation, calming overworked minds, and lowering blood pressure. For individuals prone to headaches or restlessness, blue is a balm.
Soothing
Violet
Violet soothes the nervous system and bolsters the immune response. It’s especially beneficial for those managing chronic conditions or systemic inflammation. It also supports infrared sauna immune support when combined with deep heat therapies.
Gentle
Pink
Subtler than red and infinitely gentler, pink light purifies. It’s associated with inner calm, providing a sense of peace and tranquility. Ideal for those seeking softness in a harsh world.
Why Chromotherapy Belongs in Your Wellness Regimen
Wellness is not merely the absence of illness. It is the presence of clarity within the self. Chromotherapy provides a nuanced means of inviting that clarity back. While the physical warmth of an infrared sauna penetrates deeply to aid muscle recovery, stress reduction, and toxin removal, chromotherapy adds a layer of emotional and energetic care. This multi-dimensional approach is not an indulgence. It’s the new standard in sauna therapy: an experience meticulously designed to cater to the holistic needs of every person.
Whether you’re navigating the fog of chronic fatigue, seeking refuge from daily pressures, or striving to optimize cellular vitality, chromotherapy offers a rare clarity. When color, light, and heat are orchestrated with intention, the results are quietly revolutionary. With every color, every wavelength, and every carefully curated session at beem®, you are invited to return to yourself. Not just as you are, but as you could be.

What is Chromotherapy?
Chromotherapy is the science of using colors to adjust body vibrations to frequencies that result in health and harmony. Each color possesses frequencies of a specific vibration, and each vibration is related to different physical symptoms. During your infrared sauna session, you can choose from 8 different colors, with each color addressing your individual needs.

How do you sanitize the therapy rooms?
Keeping our saunas clean and sanitized between each use is our top priority. Did you know that infrared heat kills 99% of bacteria and germs? This means that infrared saunas are already a very sterilized environment to begin with – but on top of that, we use all non-toxic cleaners to ensure the cleanest and most healthy environment for our guests.
