From the mid US to the Canadian North, as much as 25% of the population may suffer from "winter depression",
SAD. Although it may vary in severity from one individual to another, recurring seasonal symptoms of fatigue,
low energy, increased appetite, weight gain, wanting to avoid social contacts, lack of sexual interest and
the need for increased sleep are usually present in its victims.
Light therapy was first described in 1984 and has proven to be the most effective treatment for SAD. The
exposure to specific light sources have produced results in as high as 70% in the first week of treatment.
Light Therapy has also been successful in treating:
- Circadian Rhythms
- Sleep disorders
- Fibro myalgia
- Bulimia
- P.M.S.
- Jet Lag
- Shift Work
