What is syntonics?
Syntonics is a branch of optometry dealing in the relationship between various frequencies of light and neurophysiological responses. Syntonics is used in the treatement of vision problems by shining pencil thin beams of coloured lights onto the retina to activate healing responses from the autonomic nervous system. Good results are obtainable for the treatment of myopia, astigmatism and hypermotropia. Consult a syntonic optometrist for more details. Blue-green light has been shown to be beneficial as therapy for myopes. You can do this at home using coloured lighting gels and a flashlight. You can experiment with different colours to elicit an emotional response. Often colour therapy will trigger the release of bottled up emotions and memories.
