Light Therapy Boxes are used to emit the same spectrum of light as the sun in order to treat Jet Lag, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), acne, and psoriasis.

It varies from person to person but typical use of light therapy is recommended almost every day for an extended period of time. Some side effects can occur such as eyestrain, visual disturbances, headaches, anxiety, sweating, and nausea.
