Natural light normally regulates our internal biological clocks which control our alertness and energy. When dim indoor lighting, dark winters or shift work disrupt our body clocks, our bodies get out of sync, causing lethargy and moodiness. Light deprivation is usually due to the short days and long nights of winter. Insufficient light may also be the result of indoor working conditions, health and age related indoor confinement, or unseasonably cloudy weather.
Leading medical centers worldwide recommend bright light boxes for the depressive effects of winter, sleep disorders, insomnia, shiftwork and PMS. Bio-Lights are research quality light boxes that simulate daylight and its positive, regulating effect on the human body. Bio-Lights are designed to meet the specifications researchers have found necessary to regulate body rhythms. Bio-Lights use a unique combination of broad spectrum fluorescent tubes, quiet flicker free electronic ballasts, reflectors and diffusers to provide maximum light intensity, minimizing your treatment time and providing optimal visual comfort. All units are carefully calibrated and come with a chart showing the lux levels dispensed at specific distances from the unit.
