The Findings
I have been accumulating this data since May 23, 1984 and have applied color therapy for 1,478 patient visits. I began compiling the data on a computer spreadsheet in December, 1997.
Combining glass gels and filters, there were:
- Six number of colors in the red spectrum
- Seven number of colors in the orange spectrum
- Seven number of colors in the yellow spectrum
- Eleven number of colors in the green spectrum
- Nine number of colors in the blue spectrum
- Seven number of colors in the indigo spectrum
- Twelve number of colors in the violet spectrum
- One white glass gel
This is a total of 60 different colors.
Based on an estimate of the glass gel or the filter's Angstrom wavelength of light and percentage of absorption, a second number was assigned to each color representing its position along the color spectrum relative to the other filters in that color. For example, the nine blue filters were numbered 5.0 - 5.8 from lightest to darkest shade.
