Light Therapy without the risk of eye damage

Light Therapy that's Safe, Comfortable, and Effective

The Best Light Therapy Lamp - Independendant Study

The Lo- LIGHT therapy lamp was found to be the "best phototherapeutic device" [light therapy lamp] in an independent study by the U.S. Air Force and the Canadian Defence Department's R&D Centre. This study of phototherapy lamps compared the Twin Tower model Lo-LIGHT therapy lamp with other light therapy devices. The research, conducted to select the optimal device for regulating circadian rhythms in a night shift work adaptation program, found the Lo-LIGHT provides the most efficient form of light therapy for chronobiological applications. For example, 10% of the light intensity (energy) from a Twin Tower Lo-LIGHT was shown to induce twice as strong a physiological response as that induced by a commercial product that primarily emits blue light wavelengths. Lo-LIGHT lamps use a patented low-intensity GreenLIGHT technology. more at Studies in the Workplace).

A Superior Light Therapy Lamp for Mood Didorders

For a decade the Lo-LIGHT therapy lamp has provided the benefits of light therapy for sleep and mood disorders including SAD (also known as Seasonal Affective Disorder or Winter Depression), safely and comfortably. Lo-LIGHT therapy lamps have provided dramatic benefits in the treatment of non-seasonal Major Depression as an adjunct to pharmacological intervention with an SSRI. Studies published in the most authoritative psychiatric journals, including the Archives of General Psychiatry and the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, have demonstrated that properly timed exposure with a Lo-LIGHT causes rapid and sustained relief of Bipolar Depression. more at Studies with Lo- LIGHT therapy lamps

It's Worth It To Protect Your Vision

Blindness from Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is reaching epidemic proportions in the developed world. Experts have linked the development of AMD with exposure to blue light wavelengths. While the risk to vision from the "blue light hazard" increases substantially after age 40, recent research indicates increased levels of exposure to blue light in young adults advances the onset of this debilitating disease later in life by several years. Sunnex Biotechnologies patented GreenLIGHT technology screens out hazardous blue light wavelengths and eliminates the risk of eye damage inherent in the use of bright light lamps and light therapy lamps that primarily emit blue light. more at Technical information on the retinal hazard from bright light and blue light therapy lamps

The consequences of AMD for users of light therapy can be severe. As reported in the journal Science in 2007, the first person to use bright light therapy explained how light therapy became less and less effective for him over the years as his eyesight faded, and concluded "Now I can hardly see, and all hell has broken loose...I have had periods of depression lasting over a year". more at Bright Light Therapy vs GreenLIGHT Therapy

Tested and Validated in the Workplace

The U.S. Coast Guard developed the light management protocol for their Crew Endurance Management System (CEMS) using GreenLIGHT lamps. Years of trials by the USCG R&D Center on military and commercial vessels have shown that low intensity GreenLIGHT lamps can be used effectively for light management of circadian rhythms in a night shiftwork adaptation program. This fatigue management program for night shift work (CEMS) is now being implemented on commercial vessels in the US and Europe. more at Using the GreenLIGHT System for counteracting night work fatigue)

Sunnex Biotechnologies low-intensity light therapy lamps are currently in trials at a U.S. Naval Medical Center to help correct sleep disorders of veterans with head injuries, and by the U.S. Air Force and the Canadian Defense Research and Development Centre for maintaining operational alertness at night. more at Studies with Lo- LIGHT therapy lamps
