Historically, treatment for depression and thus Seasonal Affective Disorder involved the use of drugs. However, in recent years research in the USA and UK showed that SAD sufferers responded, often quite dramatically, to Bright Light Treatment. Our fully proven lightboxes have been specifically designed for bright light treatment and they are a recognised method of alleviating S.A.D.

Lack of light causes an increase in the production of Melatonin (the hormone that makes us sleepy at night), and a reduction of Serotonin, the lack of which causes depression. The exposure to bright light therapy reverses the process, with the additional benefit of being drug free.

Beginning light thereapy treatment is quite literally as easy as flicking a switch. You should start to feel the benefit within 7-14 days of using a lightbox.

By providing summertime levels of light during the winter you can successfully alleviate the symptoms of SAD with the result that former sufferers can lead a normal, happier life and beat the Winter Blues. In fact almost everyone can benefit from increased energy levels when using a lightbox.

All of our lightboxes are produced by the SAD lighbox company, a division of Full Spectrum Lighting Ltd. They were the first company in the UK to design and manufacture lightboxes specifically for alleviating SAD, and after nearly two decades they continue to design innovative, and extremely effective, light treatment products.
