BLUEWAVE Light Therapy Units from Philips/Apollo
This is supposedly my “Pagan Therapy Blog”, and it is, but my interests lately have been with easy-to-use gadgets that can help my clients with stress and depression.
I recently scooped up 10 little portable light therapy units in a cheap eBay auction! I now
have 10 goLite P1 “BLUEWAVE†light therapy units for use with seasonal depression and sleep disorders.
The nice feature about these units is that they are very small and portable. They can run on battery — so clients can move them around from place to place and carry them from work to home. Recent research seems to show that only certain bluelight spectrums of sunlight are required for benefits — and so smaller LED portable units like these have been developed.
More on BLUEWAVE and it’s research claims can be found here and here.
I suppose if I really stretch I could make a link to Paganism… these units were originally manufactured by Apollo Health before Philips bought them… Apollo is the Greek God of the Sun and Healing… his son is the Greek God of healing Asklepios… his daughter is Hygeia — the goddess my counseling practice is named after…
I’m very good at stretching things.
