Treatment Time 30 Mins
AS SEEN ON THIS MORNING WITH DR. CHRIS STEELE 26th JANUARY 2010
Dr Chris investigates the Phillips goLITE BLU for winter blues and Seasonal Affective Disorder on ITV’s This Morning.
He goes onto to say “Just sit with it by your side for just 15 minutes a day, and that lifts your mood. Good for people that are shift workers, for people suffering Jet Lag and specifically for people that are suffering from Winter Depression. When the suns not out it’s not just cytological, light has an effect on chemicals in the brain”
A recent Harvard study revealed that exposure to a new specialised type of 'blue' light can help alleviate the symptoms of winter blues and restore people's summer mood and summer energy levels.
Philips goLITE BLU is a portable and rechargeable SAD Light Box for quick and natural relief for winter blues, low energy, sleep problems and the symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder.
Introducing the Philips goLITE BLU. The worlds best selling SAD Light Therapy product has been updated with the release of the most feature packed goLITE ever.
Formerly the Apollo Health goLITE BLU (Apollo Health is now owned by Philips) the Philips goLITE BLU is the very latest in SAD treatment technology. Using Apollo Health's expertise and experience of being a world leader in LIght Therapy for more than 20 years this SAD LIght Box brings together the best from both companies.
BLUEWAVE, TECHNOLOGY OF THE FUTURE:
BLUEWAVE™ is so significant because it provides a higher effective response than most full spectrum light at 1/10th the intensity 10,000-lux. This means light therapy is not only convenient, but easier on the eyes. Because BLUEWAVE™ is so effective it is now considered the SAD Light Therapy treatment technology of the future. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations. Philips BLUEWAVE™ Technology is the only clinically proven blue light source to treat mood disorders. ] For many years, leading light therapy researchers and doctors have known that full-spectrum, 10,000 lux conventional light boxes can be very effective at treating seasonal affective disorder and other circadian rhythm related mood disorders. Now Philips have developed the world's best blue spectrum light therapy device - the goLITE.
Recently, researchers have discovered that a very specific range of blue light is the most effective color (wavelength) in treating these disorders. Philips has spent several years working with leading experts at medical universities and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop a new product based on this research, and we're proud to introduce the goLITE P1. This patent-pending product delivers only the most effective wavelengths, which means a more convenient treatment than traditional 10,000 lux full-spectrum light therapy devices.

The Philips goLITE BLU retains the most important features of the original goLITE models but improves upon them by adding a host of features including: a new design (even more compact) developed in conjuction with Phillips, a new diffuser system giving softer more even blue light, backlit touch screen for easy control and a superb rechargeable battery. The Philips goLITE BLU is ideal for those on the go, who may not have time to plug in their light, work the night shift, or travel frequently. The improved long-lasting Lithium Ion battery technology means power for up to 5 to 7 treatment sessions on quick charge and 8 -9 sessions on a full 8-hour charge. Flexibility is key in the design of the BLU and It can also be used directly from Mains power.
The Phillips goLITE BLU uses patented BLUEWAVE technology and is a leap forward in the treatment of Seasonal Affective Disorders and other Circadian Rhythm related problems such as Jet Lag, sleep disorders and problems brought about by shift working. At only 14cm high ( 5.6”) x 13.5cm wide ( 5.4”) x 2.5cm deep (1” ) the goLITE BLU is the world’s smallest Light Therapy product. However there has been no compromise on treatment and effectiveness, as it still boasts a full treatment time as quick as the most expensive conventional light boxes. The goLITE uses L.E.D.’s rather than bulbs to deliver a quick, safe and effective Light Therapy treatment. This means the goLITE is considerably smaller and lighter than conventional light boxes – in fact it is 10 times smaller in volume than the Litepod (the smallest conventional bulb based light box available). Add the above to the fact that the goLITE BLU features a rechargeable battery and it makes the product the ultimate in portable, convenient and effective light therapy.
WARNING – Due to the outstanding success of the goLITE products we have become aware of cheaper various copycat LED products. Please be aware that these products may not be produced to the same safety standards and can also make unproven claims as to their effectiveness and treatment times. The reason why the Apollo goLITE has such a fast treatment time is because of the patented BLUEWAVE™ technology, the treatment of SAD using specific Blue LED’s is supported up by over 20 years of research in conjunction with the US National Institute for Health. Please do not waste your money or put your health at risk and only purchase products that are backed by specific medical research and safety standards. If you prefer to buy a white light we would strongly recommend a proven Full Spectrum Unit that is backed by medical research, and not a copy cat small LED product.
Light levels determine the sleep / wake cycles of both animals and humans. The desire to sleep is brought on by the secretion of Melatonin, and the bright natural light or the light from a SAD lamp significantly reduces Melatonin, greatly improving our energy levels. Typical symptoms of SAD are depression, lethargy, anxiety, craving, social problems, sleep problems and loss of libido. These symptoms can be commonly resolved through the use of the Silverlite light box.
