NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp

Posted on | October 7, 2009 | No Comments

There is something comforting in just the name of the NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp. Darkness for some people is just a natural cycle in nature, but for others it causes seasonal affective disorder (SAD). This is a major depressive disorder that occurs mostly in the fall and/or winter as the days get shorter and the nights get longer.

It would be great if you could go outside and flip a big switch whenever you feel the blues or become depressed as nature robs you of sunlight. The switch could turn on the sun and bathe you in healing warmth and light. Surely that is what the creators of the NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp had in mind when they developed this product.

The cause of SAD is not known for sure but is most likely due to the body failing to produce certain chemicals or hormones in adequate quantities such as serotonin or melatonin. The brain doesn’t trigger the glands to produce the chemicals due to lack of sunlight according to research studies to date. The body needs a certain amount of exposure to sunlight in order to maintain balance.

Light Up Your Darkness

This Therapy Lamp can light up the darkness with concentrated 10,000-lux light. Flip a switch as you sit in front of the lamp and your eyes, face and neck are bathed in light that mimics daylight. Your body is better able to rebalance its internal clock and begins to produce the hormones needed to maintain emotional and mental well-being. You no longer have to fear the changing of the seasons after purchasing this lamp.

It’s amazing to think this compact and sturdy unit can do the work of the sun in just a matter of minutes a day. The light is emitted by specially designed NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp bulbs. But this unit also issues a stream of fresh air composed of negative ions. Special receptors in your skin, and those especially in your eyes, absorb the light and trigger the body’s natural processes.

The light therapy unit was designed specifically for home use. People who have religiously used the product have glowing reports about its effectiveness. After basking in the light for 30 minutes a day you will discover an improved ability to sleep because the body’s clock is reset to “normal”. The restored flow of natural hormones produces a feeling of well being. SAD is turned in Happy!

As for the product itself, the NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp has many quality features.

  • Ease of use
  • Durable construction
  • State-of-the-art Sky Effect technology
  • Dual purpose with both light emission and negative ion air flow
  • Compact for home use
  • Virtually maintenance free
  • Safe and effective
  • Time light capability

For many people who have suffered with seasonal affective disorder, one of the main advantages of this unit is its affordability. Going to clinics for light therapy can be very expensive and units built in the past for patient home use were large, bulky and high priced.

A Touch of the Sun

The NatureBright SunTouch Plus Light and Ion Therapy Lamp is just the opposite. It is compact, easy to move, and inexpensive. If you are one of those people dreading fall and winter or are taking medications for SAD, it’s highly recommended that you purchase one of these units and see for yourself how it can improve your life.

Or if you know anyone who has ever complained about feeling blue when the long nights arrive, this therapy lamp makes a great present for Christmas, birthdays or graduation. What better gift could you give someone than a touch of the sun?
