Innosol Aurora SAD Light Therapy Box Lamp

Treatment Time - 1 hour

With this cool SAD lamp making a style statement in your home, no-one would ever suspect that you are looking at a light therapy box! The ultimate in SAD light box designs, the new Aurora will add a touch of class to any room. The new design provides 360 degrees of light which can be dimmed. Its graceful wavy lines give off an intense but relaxing light, for effective treatment in your home, and when you have finished your SAD light therapy treatment, it can be dimmed to act as mood lighting. This is really a departure from what we normally recognise as a SAD light box!

The graceful wavy contours of the cool opaque shade give an elegant feel whilst the contemporary chrome base adds a modern touch. The total effect of the Aurora is a relaxing and atmospheric light which is great to look at and provides treatment for Seasonal Affective Disorder at the same time. You will not want to switch this SAD light box off!

Using the same high power lights as the Diamond range, it is fitted with 2 x 36W lamps and many of our customers report that they can get a full treatment in as little as 60 mins.

This light box was featured in the Daily Mail as 'One of the Top 5 Cures for SAD'!

The Society for Light Treatment and Biological Rhythms (SLTBR) recommends light therapy as the best non-drug therapy to treat seasonal depression.

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 Aurora SAD light box.

Light therapy has been proved effective in up to 85 per cent of diagnosed cases of Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. For more information about Seasonal Affective Disorder and its Treatment please read our FAQ page.

When's the best time to use the Sunny light box?

Most people find that light therapy in the mornings works best so, if you are just starting out, try this first. Try not to use your light late in the evening though (i.e. within 3 hours of going to bed) as you may find it difficult to get to sleep.

If you have trouble waking up in the mornings then you should definitely use a light box first thing.

Claiming Exemption is easy

When placing an order you will have the option of choosing VAT exemption or not. 

If you choose the VAT exempt option we will send you a form which will need to be completed and returned with 7 days otherwise you will be charged VAT at the appropriate rate. 

Exemption is activated by signing and returning the form we have sent you. 
No other proof is required, but fraudulent claims could be checked and could constitute an offence. This form can be signed by the person themselves, a guardian, a carer, a parent or a representative.

An example of a fraudulent claim might be for example if a lightbox was purchased as a colour lamp for art work- this would not be a zero-rated supply.

Items for use in an institution, or if you are re-selling the goods you are not eligible for zero-rating.
