Description
Information on Light Therapy from the May Clinic:
Light therapy is used to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and certain other conditions by shining a therapeutic light source on exposed skin.
During light therapy, you sit or work near a device called a light therapy box.
The box gives off bright light that mimics natural outdoor light.
Light therapy is thought to affect brain chemicals linked to mood and sleep, easing SAD symptoms. Using a light therapy box may also help with other types of depression, sleep disorders and other conditions. Light therapy is also known as bright light therapy or phototherapy.
Why it's done:
You may want to try light therapy for a number of reasons:
-
Your doctor recommends it for seasonal affective disorder or another condition.
-
You want to try treatment that is safe and has few side effects.
-
You want to increase the effectiveness of antidepressant medication or mental health counseling (psychotherapy).
-
You need to avoid antidepressant medications during pregnancy or while breast-feeding.
