Light therapy is a way to treat conditions by exposure to artificial light.

Light therapy is thought to affect brain chemicals linked to mood and sleep, and can ease pain symptoms. Using a light therapy box may also help with other types of depression, sleep disorders and other conditions like PTSD. Light therapy is also known as bright light therapy or phototherapy.
