What Are Chakras?

There are seven chakras in the human body, each vibrating at a different frequency. Energy flows through the chakras from one part of the body to another. If your chakras are blocked, your energy can become stuck. Each chakra corresponds to a color and internal organ or body part. They are numbered from the bottom up; the "first" chakra is the lowest one and the base of your spine.

Energy Balancing and the Chakras

There are seven main energy centers in the body, known as chakras. The definition of chakra is a point of spiritual energy in the human body according to yoga philosophy. Each chakra has a particular location, color, and correlation to specific body parts, mental thoughts, and emotional moods. 


When the energy center, or chakra, is blocked or weak physical or emotional dysfunction can occur. When we release the blocked energy and open up the chakra, it can give ease to the mind and the body, undoing tightness, stiffness, or malfunction in the body. There are different ways of releasing energy. Since being a chiropractor is all about releasing stuck energy in the spine, joints, and muscles of the body it was only a matter of time before I started to release blocked chakra energy in my patients. 


I muscle test the chakras by putting my hand in the energy centers. Not only do I check the front of the body's chakras but also the sides and back. This is because chakras are not one-dimensional but think of it as a ball of energy, and we can check the four sides of the body for it. After muscle testing and finding out which ones go weak, I prioritize which ones need the most healing and balance that chakra first.

I then have the patient wear the appropriate colored sunglasses corresponding to the weak chakra for at least 60 seconds. Wearing different-colored sunglasses puts that specific color or wavelength into the brain, which helps reset the blocked chakra to allow energy to flow again.


There are lots of different ways to open up and balance chakras. Sometimes the issue isn't a blocked energy but an energy that is too open that needs to be balanced.

Working with the chakras, I found many beneficial ways to balance energy. Singing bowls I have all seven at home and use regularly are wonderful, using sound to balance. I also love using tuning forks, crystals, essential oils, yoga, and color therapy. Seven different chakras correlate to the seven different colors of the rainbow - starting from the bottom, the first chakra is red, and up to the 7th chakra, white or violet.

Chakra Classes at Healing Arts NYC

After developing the glasses, I wanted to incorporate exercise and movement into opening up and stimulating the chakras, so I created a new Chakra Class.


In this exercise class, you will go through a movement sequence to help open up and stimulate all the chakras. After a good workout, you will leave the class feeling light and rejuvenated!
