Chromotherapy in the shower to improve your well-being
25/07/25

Chromotherapy in the shower is a wellness technique that uses the application of different coloured lights during bathing to positively influence mood and emotional balance. Based on the principles of colour therapy, this practice is integrated into special showers with LED lights that project shades such as blue (relaxation), red (energy) or green (harmony), creating a sensory experience that combines water and light. Although it is not a substitute for medical treatment, chromotherapy is valued as a complement to relaxation and self-care routines.

    There is a wide range of methods that allow us to feel better about ourselves, such as exercise, mindfulness and relaxation techniques. An increasingly popular feature in wellness centres is the chromotherapy shower, an LED light bath that can influence mood and is proving to offer excellent results when integrated into anyone’s daily routine.

    What is chromotherapy in the shower and how does it work?

    Chromotherapy in the shower is a coloured LED light therapy that is carried out during bathing with the aim of positively influencing emotional and physical well-being through very specific light vibrations.

    This emotional shower is simple to use, as all you need to do is install LED heads or strips that project different colours depending on what you want to stimulate or balance.

    Each colour vibrates at a specific frequency, which has a very different effect on the body, stimulating hormones and balancing very specific emotions. For example, blue calms, green balances and red activates. A slow shower is recommended, combining water with colour to achieve relaxing or revitalising sensations.

    This simple yet effective technique is leading to a high influx of visitors to wellness spas with chromotherapy compared to those without this type of sensory technology.

    Colours and their emotional effects: a practical guide

    Colour therapy in the shower offers multiple possibilities depending on the colour chosen at any given time, as each colour is linked to different emotional effects.

    • Red: Conveys energy and vitality, stimulating circulation and combating apathy. It is perfect in the morning or at any time of day when you need motivation.
    • Yellow: Promotes joy, optimism, improvements in digestive processes and combats states of low mood or mild depression.
    • Orange: Invites emotional and physical growth, increases energy, relieves fatigue and boosts mental activity.
    • Blue: Relaxes, as it has the power to reduce anxiety, facilitate mental disconnection and improve sleep quality.
    • Green: A symbol of balance and calm, it helps reduce stress, stabilises emotions and promotes inner harmony.
    • Violet: Promotes emotional calm and is capable of relieving deep tension and even insomnia.

    Benefits of incorporating colour therapy into your daily routine

    Incorporating colour therapy into a person’s daily routine transforms the shower into a space for daily well-being that goes beyond hygiene, promoting emotional balance, energy and rest in a natural and accessible way.

    • Enjoying a colour therapy shower with colours such as blue and green promotes relaxation, relieving accumulated tension and improving night-time sleep, which helps to improve your emotional state.
    • A colour therapy session with warm tones such as red, orange or even yellow stimulates energy and motivation, lifting the mood and increasing activity and positivity.
    • A chromotherapy shower at night with cool tones sends signals to the nervous system that allow you to fall asleep quickly and effectively.
    • This combination of light, water and colour turns this type of sensory shower into a mindful moment, which is reflected very positively in the perception of one’s own body.
    • In addition, we have already mentioned that colour therapy stimulates hormones and has a positive influence on stress levels.

    How to choose and install your chromotherapy system in the shower

    Choosing the right chromotherapy system for your shower involves assessing the quality of the product, its electrical safety in wet areas, its ease of use and also its energy consumption.

    Pay particular attention to the LED technology used, its IP certification for water, compatibility with your existing wellness centre installation and whether it allows you to change colours easily.

    When it comes to installation, these are the most important steps to follow.

    1. Be sure to hire the services of a licensed electrician and check that your system can handle the required volume.
    2. Purchase a suitable head or panel and check that it is installed as specified in the manufacturer’s instructions.
    3. Check that the electrical installation is safe.
    4. Test that everything works as it should.

    If you have any questions, at Fluidra we can advise you so that you always choose the best option.

    Tips for getting the most out of your session

    To fully enjoy a chromotherapy shower, it is necessary to prepare the environment well and acquire certain habits that enhance its physical and emotional benefits from the very first minute.

    • Choose the right colour for your objective.
    • Combine the LED light bath with music and relaxed breathing to intensify the balancing effect.
    • Shower with warm water, avoiding extremes of heat or cold to facilitate sensory absorption of the colour and avoid distractions.
    • Do not exceed 5 to 10 minutes of colour therapy in the shower, which is more than enough time for chromotherapy to work without tiring the skin or interrupting your daily routine.
    • Finish in silence or with a short meditation.

    This will transform your chromotherapy session in the shower into a totally transformative experience. Don’t wait any longer to try it!
