Mauro Clerici, a certified practitioner of Esogetics Colorpuncture, leads a free hands-on workshop in this gentle healing therapy Wednesdays from 6 to 7 p.m. at ImpactHub, 394 Broadway at Canal Street.

Colorpuncture leverages acupuncture points plus many others discovered by its founder, German naturopath Dr. Peter Mandel. Instead of using needles, a Colorpuncture practitioner applies treatments using a handheld device resembling a small flashlight, with interchangeable colored rods. The effect is gentle but powerful, Clerici says; people have described it as “extremely calming,” “relaxing,” “grounding” and “life-changing.”

Many ancient civilizations, including the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and Aztecs, used color therapy, he notes. “What makes this technique special is the ability to complement the most ancient knowledge with the most recent modern biophysics discoveries, and the results are extraordinary. Colorpuncture works wonders with lifestyle- and stress-related symptoms.”

Clerici says it’s his mission to introduce as many people as possible to Colorpuncture, which is suitable for all ages. “My additional knowledge in health coaching, therapeutic-grade essential oils and nutraceutics further enhance the experience and makes it a unique holistic experience for the individual.”
