Benefits of light therapy devices include:

* Feeling more naturally energized

* Improve your mood

* Achieve more restful sleeping patterns

* Safely bring the sun indoors year round

In clinical trials it has been shown that the short treatment time (around 30 minutes) and portability of light therapy devices may increase patient appeal and adherence over other treatment options, including chemical antidepressants.

Many people seem skeptical of light therapy and unsure about exactly what it is and what it does.

But consider how many hours (each day) most folks spend indoors? 14 hours? 20 hours? 24 hours?

Most people today are stuck in an office for 8 hours a day, then come home to the TV for another 3 or 4 hours before finally going to bed. This kind of routine leaves very little time for soaking up the sun and reaping the benefits of light exposure.

We were not made to be locked in the dark day after day. Mother Nature did not intend us to be so deprived of light. Our bodies don't function correctly without light exposure; that is simple scientific fact. Winter months (in the Northern hemisphere) tend to be the worst time for those suffering from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) and many people are prone to bouts of depression at this time of the year (often without knowing why). About 30% of North Americans appear to suffer from SAD, a condition that also causes fatigue and weight gain. It gets worse: other symptoms often include great difficulty concentrating, cravings for carbohydrates, social withdrawal and insomnia.

Fatigue is a common and often serious problem for many people. Working mums have to endure long hours at work and long hours with the kids - a recipe for tiredness and stress! Maybe you've noticed: - Headaches or stomach aches - Reduced sense of humor - Drowsiness

Without enough light, our bodies tend to suffer from something similar to jet lag. Also, our melatonin (the sleepy hormone) and serotonin (the feel-good hormone) levels appear to get out of whack. However, with the right kind of light, pointed at the eye at a 45-degree angle, it seems to recalibrate things.

But the situation is gradually changing. Light therapy researchers have made great strides over recent years and are beginning to get a clear picture about why we need to expose our bodies to light. More and more people are becoming aware of this need for light and it is no longer considered a fringe therapy.
