Bright light is proven to be an effective treatment for SAD and using Zip every day over the autumn and winter will make a big difference to symptoms such as tiredness, over-eating and a lack of energy and motivation.
The LEDs used in Zip have been specially selected for their extra light output in the blue part of the spectrum that's known to be particularly effective at regulating circadian rhythms. So it might not be as bright as a traditional 10,000lux lightbox but it's just as effective.
Recommended treatment time is 30 minutes. The adjustable stand will help you to position Zip correctly and the timer will ensure you don't skimp on your light therapy.
Its handy size and re-chargeable battery make Zip extremely portable; use it at home then pop it in the travel pouch and take it to work.
Just as sunlight naturally makes you feel good, getting extra bright light when you're stuck indoors is proven to put you in a better mood, boost alertness and help you to feel more awake.
Zip can also help with jet lag, providing bright light at key times to help the body adjust much more quickly to a new time zone.
