Product Details

Changes in the amount & quality of light during winter months can have a profound effect on a person's physical & emotional well-being. Insufficient exposure to light can lead to a wide range of conditions. The clinically recognised condition known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (or the Winter Blues) is one of the best known. Typical symptoms of this condition include:
- Depression
- Lethargy
- Anxiety
- Sleeplessness
- Social problems

Research has shown that between 5 & 10% of the world's population can suffer with severe SAD symptoms & up to 25% suffer with milder symptoms.
Light affects the human body in a number of ways including:
- Determining the sleeping/waking cycle
- Affecting levels of melatonin, adrenalin, seratonin & dopamine (which have influence on systems such as moods, emotions, eating & sleeping).
- Affecting the thyroid gland which in turn affects the metabolism

Light treatment has been consistently proven to have a positive effect in aiding the treatment of these conditions. It can also be used to treat other conditions including:
- Classical depression
- Pre-menstrual syndrome
- Jet lag
