Consists of exposure to specific wavelengths of light using
lasers, LEDs, fluorescent lamps, dichroic lamps or very
bright, full-spectrum light, for a prescribed amount of
time. It has proven effective in treating Acne vulgaris,
seasonal affective disorder, and for some people it has
ameliorated delayed sleep phase syndrome. It has recently
been shown effective in non-seasonal depression. Proponents
claim demonstrable benefits for skin conditions such as
psoriasis and, more controversially, a degree of "skin
rejuvenation."
Exposure to whole
spectrum light is the controlled exposure to sunlight, full-spectrum,
ultraviolet, colored, or laser light as a treatment for
chronic pain and depression, or to stimulate the immune
system. Associated with a stronger immune system response,
as well as, prevention of cancer, fatigue, carbohydrate
cravings, insomnia, bulimia, PMS, SAD, migraines and memory
disturbances. Especially beneficial during the dark months
of winter. Also, different colored light bulbs can be used
on the chakra system and the secondary vortices.
