With the recent additions to the popular model of sad light lamp, the Philips HF3360 has been endorsed in the last months by international health companies. Amongst different health foundations, the National Sleep Foundation in the US have made the Philips golite lightbox their ‘Official Light Therapy Product of 2010 to 2011′.

If a SAD lightbox could be classed as a Rover, a Porsche or Rolls-Royce, then the Philips goLITE is most definitely a Rolls-Royce. The reason why is say this included many factors, not least the fact that this light looks extremely sexy, reminiscent of the apple mac and ipod.

Other reasons why the go lite is in a league of its own included the reliability and superb manufacturing that Philips offers. Philips have been developing lighting technology for over 20 years, with the last 10 years including the innovative technology of blue wave and white-light tech to treat mood disorders related to lack of natural sunlight.

The go lite is small, you can see in the images that you click through to above and below. It is suitable for use in the home, whilst travelling and also at work.

Most Seasonal Affective Disorder light-boxes of recent years have been large, clunky, and rather ugly despite the brilliant health benefits. The golite has downsized 10 fold, whilst improving in technology so that light therapy treatment is improved rather than compromised with the smaller light window.

Philips have developed this light box by adding a wider field of light. I love this feature as it has improved the treatment and reduced the treatment time needed to get the benefits of a mood lift. You only need to use the light for 15 minutes per day, or more if you choose, to have more energy and higher serotonin levels for a happier lighter mood.

Another benefit of light therapy in Winter and other times of the year is that it regulates the ‘body clock’, resulting in a better nights sleep and increased alertness during the day.

I love this light, as many do. I also love the fact that you get a product warranty that will provide you with great customer service from Philips for years to come.

Sad Blue Light Review

Golite blue Sad Blue Light Review 2010. Winter is definitely upon us now, so you will probably want to invest in a SAD blue light. We make it our business to find you the best value for money and most effective SAD lights on the market right now. If you are in a hurry, here are the links to our favourite Seasonal Affective Disorder light boxes in UK, US & Canada:

The Philips golite Sad lamp ticks all the boxes for me. Firstly, it boasts using the latest light therapy technology with the lamp being made up of a mass of small blue LED lights.

This sexy little light has the full 10,000 Lux light output that is recommended by medical professionals for the maxiumum benefits, with the blue light therapy solving the problem of a nasty glare from the lamp that can harm eyesight and cause unwanted headaches.

The Philips goLITE BLU is truly beautiful if you can really say that about a light! It is small, stylish, and can be taken just about anywhere. I have found it especially useful when going on holiday as it helps me to adjust to the time zone differences.

This sad light box can be adjusted to suit your needs. It has a light output intensity setting, a clock and timer setting to make sure that you don’t overdo your light therapy treatment, and the latest model has an improved wider field of light so that you can get on with other activites whilst using the SAD desk lamp.

Light therapy treatment is extremely powerful. I had personally suffered with Seasonal Affective Disorder every winter since as far back as I can remember until last year when I decided to invest in a Philips lightbox. I have to say that now I would never go through a winter in the UK without one again!

We found lots of glowing reviews on the Philips golite, and to date it is still the most popular SAD light of 2010. Here is just one of many reviews that we have gathered:

After 10 days of use, I noticed a “mood” change – just a slight shift that something positive was happening. With continued use, I can get out of bed by 5:45 AM and get going which is a HUGE change in the right direction.

“I recommend the product highly because it is a “proactive” solution for my problem living in a gray city.”
Ann, Seattle

Philips HF3330 Alarm Review

June 14, 2010 By Jodie Lawton

If you are looking for a Philips hf3330 Alarm Clock then I should be able to help you. The Sad Light Box Review Team have reviewed the Philips goLITE, and we have sourced the cheapest Philips HF3330 online. Here are the links if you are in a hurry:

You may be suprised to here that our favourite Seasonal Affective Disorder Lamp for 2010/2011 is the Philips golite. There are a number of reasons why we love this light box. Here is the summary:

The Philips go lite is one of the smallest sad lamps on the market, so it is ideal for using at home, at work, or on trips overseas where the time difference can affect you.

The goLITE uses a combination of white light and blue light, providing the body with the specific spectrum of light that the body needs. With this lightbox you will get the full effect of 10,000 lux White light, but with the combination of white and blue, the light is softer on the eyes.

the goLITE offers something to the user that other small light boxes don’t. It has a wider light field so that you are not limited to sitting really close to the light box, and indeed you also don’t have to look directly at the light. This is good if you want to read a book or do some work during your lightbath.

My favourite feature of this SAD product is that you can programme your light with a timer, so that you know exactly how much light therapy treatment you have had, as well as being able to sav your personal settings.

Now, the price matter. The goLITE is a mid range product, which is right on the money for us. You don’t want to buy too cheap as you will get an inferior product that may only be half as affective. You also don’t want to go over £150 or $150 as you will then be entering into buying design rather than medical benefits.

Here is a review from a happy customer (other than me):

“The Philips goLITE BLU is well designed and has loads of built in functionality. While it is not it not inexpensive it may very well hold the key to helping you feel more energetic in the winter months.”
Charles Evans, North Carolina

More Philips HF3330 Alarm Tips

The Philips goLITE is an economical product to buy for many reasons. It uses LED lights rather than specialised lightbox bulbs, so they have a much longer life. There is also a lesser risk of fire due to the fact that LEDs generate much less heat than other light sources.

You must look into the light from time to time to get the full benefit of the light therapy. The light is only absorbed by the eyes and not beneficial on the skin, although it does feel good!

Philips goLITE Review

April 21, 2010 By Jodie Lawton

Philips goLITE If you are looking for information and product reviews on the Go Lite Sad Therapy Light Box then you have come to the right place. The Go Lite happens to be one of the Sad Light Box Review teams favourites. If you are in a hurry, here are the links to the cheapest Go lites that we could find in the UK, US and Canada.

The golite lights therapy box by Philips is one of the most innovative of its kind. It ticks all of the boxes for us, and here’s why.

Firstly, it is a mid range priced product, so it wont break the bank. At the moment it is 50% at our UK source, and is as competitively priced in the US.

You may have heard good reviews about the goLITE p1. This was one of Philips earlier models that sold out almost everywhere.

The new goLITE HF3330 shown above is the lastest Philips sad box. The goLITE uses blue light tehcnology unlike other lower range sad light boxes that use white light. Blue light is specifically important to the success of sad light therapy treatment because there are special light receptors in our eyes that respond most efficiently to the blue part of the light spectrum.

The Sad Light Box Therapy Review team also found that the Philips goLITE blu produced the fastest results, with users depressive symptoms being alleviated in as little as 3 days just by using the light for a minimum of 15 minutes each day. This was much faster than other lightbox products that we tested (such as the Apollo GoLITE that is a variant on the original Philips goLITE).

We love the Philips golite blu light because it can be taken anywhere and used anywhere. Alot of the sad light boxes on the market are larger and clunkier models which are not great for everyday use. Consumers often buy these instead of the compact models because they believe that the larger surface area of light is more beneficial to the smaller light panel. To put it plainly, this is not true, especially with the Philips golite blue.

The goLITE HF3330 has a new wider field of light that allows you to engage in other activites whilst getting your light therapy. This is brilliant otherwise getting your quota of daily light could seriously set you back and make you late. Instead you can now get ready, eat your breakfast or catch up on your emails whilst sitting in front of the goLITE.

Don’t just take our words as gospel on how highly we recommend the Philips goLITE. Here is a review that we sourced from a customer who took a ‘break’ from using thier goLITE to see if it had really made a difference in altering the levels of serotonin in the body, or whether it was all just a placebo:

“Edit 23-2-10: I tried out a week of not using it to see what would happen (a ‘control’ week, if you like), and the effects were noticeable, even though they crept up on me rather slowly; I became rather irritable and tired after 5 or 6 days – snapping rather unpleasantly at loved ones, and I found it hard to get to sleep. Rather than continue the misery I switched on the light again, and three days later I’m feeling a lot better for it again.”
L. Hennessy, London, 3 Dec 2009

Whether you have tried Seasonal Affective Disorder lightboxes before and have not found the right one for you, or if you are a beginner and want to make the right investment without wasting lots of your hard earned cash, I strongly recommend that you take a look at the Philips Golite to see just how well it will fit into your lifestyle.

Additional Philips goLITE tips and news

If you are planning on using the Philips goLITE blue light therapy box, and it is your very first experience of sitting in front of blue light, I recommend a few ways of getting your body used to the change in light frequency.

Firstly, if you can, start using your Philips goLITE over a weekend. I say this because if you use it for the first time on a normal working day, there is a small chance that you will experience some mild side effects – usually either a headache or slightly blurred vision. I hasten to reassure you that this is all perfectly normal, and the symptoms will subside in a few days (if you get them at all).

If you are severely affected after light therapy treatment, try taking some painkillers and wait 2 days before starting light therapy again. If symptoms persist, it is only then necessary to see your doctor as a precaution.

Another way to avoid headaches is to ease yourself into light therapy gradually. Start by using your light on its lowest setting (if it has a light adjustment setting). Then build up to the light level that is most comfortable for you over a period of a week.

If you suspect or you find that you are particularly light sensitive, try opting for a dawn simulator sad alarm clock to begin with. This is a milder version and will get you out of bed in the morning with lots of energy and in a good mood no matter what the weather is outside. Here are two of our favourite SAD alarm clocks:

>>>>NatureBright Dia2 Blue Light and Dawn Simulator Alarm Clock (US only)

>>>>learn more about iBoutique Natural Sunrise Alarm Clock (UK only)

If this works well for you, but you still need help to alleviate unwanted depressive or fatigue symptoms, then try using a light box with a maximum of 10000 Lux.

Most of all, enjoy being bathed in light!
