Bright Light Benefits
Daily exposure to bright light helps to maintain your circadian rhythm, boost energy and manage sleeping patterns. Light therapy is also the first line of recommended treatment for the Winter Blues. For many, morning sun exposure is limited by work, school or other commitments, even in the summer. The TheraLite is a bright light therapy lamp designed to fill this gap.

Symptoms of Overuse
Negative effects are rare with light therapy. However, if you experience increased irritability, excessive energy, and/or any consistent discomfort during or after use, decrease session time or move the light further away. Using the lamp late in the afternoon or in the evening is not advised, as this may disrupt your sleep. It is recommended that you consult your doctor before beginning any bright light regimen.
