The Phillips GoLite Blu Light Therapy Device is a portable and convenient treatment option for people suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder, SAD. This device completely eradicates the need for drug therapy or stimulants such as caffeine to combat SAD symptoms.
Seasonal Affective Disorder affects approximately 10 percent of the population. Sufferers of SAD report feeling depressed, lethargic, and anxious. In addition, there are often other symptoms such as a loss of libido, muscle and joint pain, and behavior problems.
These symptoms are the body’s response to the shifting of seasons. Some people are able to adjust with no visible troubles but others experience problems severe enough to disrupt their daily lives. The Phillips GoLite Blu Light Therapy Device Works to help this group of people.
Seasonal Effects
Seasonal Affective Disorder occurs as a result of the lack of natural sunlight during the winter months. From September to April a person with SAD is likely to exhibit some, or all, of the symptoms listed above.
When the body is exposed to natural sunlight certain biological processes begin to work. These processes affect hormones and chemicals in the brain. During the long, dark months of winter exposure to natural sunlight is limited. The chemicals and hormones in the brain will not interact properly with the body during these months unless a substitute for natural sunlight is found.
A Desk Lamp
You may be asking yourself why you can’t just turn on your desk lamp or other lights in your home. Lighting that combats the symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder is a different kind of light that can deliver a ‘natural’ dose of sunlight in a very short time.
The human eye is programmed to absorb blue light from the sky. Once absorbed this light helps to keep the body’s systems in balance. A desk lamp or room light is no substitute for a Blu Light.
Blu Light therapy is more successful than white light in treating SAD. Blu Light is soft and does not cause eye strain, headaches, or any other problems that result from bright lights, reflections, or glares.
The Phillips GoLite
The Phillips GoLite is easy to carry and easy to use. It has an ergonomic design with touch screen controls. The touch sensitive screen allows users to determine the intensity of the Blu Light, set the digital clock and alarm, and set the automatic stop time.
This remarkable device is wonderful for use at home, at work, or while traveling. It folds for easy storage and fits in a laptop bag or briefcase. When open, the unit measures 5 ¼ inches by 5 ½ inches. It can be placed on a desk or side table with ease.
Customers rave about Blu Light technology. Many customers have tried other light boxes and have had no results. As soon as they tried the Phillips Go Lite they began to notice an improvement in mood, sleep, and energy levels. Consistent use will keep the symptoms of SAD at bay throughout the winter months.
The Phillips GoLite Blu Light Therapy Device utilizes the latest technology in the treatment of SAD. For you or anyone you know with Seasonal Affective Disorder, the Phillips GoLite is the perfect solution for this age-old problem.
