"50 airbags and a power consumption of 230 Watts is pretty darn good if you ask me. All said and done, the Favor 03 is very much a compression intensive massage chair, and I think that’s it’s biggest strength."

"For what is is, the Real Relax is a great chair with exceeding functionalities, there’s nothing we’d want to change really. It is hands down our top best massage chair under $1,000. Without the massages on, it even makes for one very comfortable recliner chair to sleep, rest or read in."

Light Therapy

Light therapy, or phototherapy, treats a variety of disorders. By exposing individuals to different kinds of light (for example, monochromatic, polychromatic, ultraviolet), symptoms can often be delayed, reduced, and eradicated. Immunological, neurotransmitter, and neuroendocrine systems play key roles in response to this type of treatment.

Best known in psychiatry, light therapy serves as a treatment for seasonal affective disorder (SAD), or winter depression; bulimia nervosa; sleep disorders; and “sundowner’s syndrome,” the late afternoon confusion and agitation sometimes accompanying Alzheimer’s disease. Shift workers can also experience difficulties related to light exposure, and light therapies may provide some relief. Reduced environmental light is a factor in the etiology, onset, or maintenance of these problems. Thus, treatment involves exposing individuals to bright, full-spectrum light for specific time periods. Duration of exposure and light intensity vary by the disorder and the individual treated.

In dermatology and oncology, light therapy treats psoriasis, skin ulcers, tumors, and esophageal cancers. The type of light and the intensities used, however, vary considerably from those applied for the treatment of psychiatric disorders.

The Whittemore Wellness Room offers a variety of lighting combinations in order to best accommodate an individual's preference.

The overhead lights in the room are controlled by a switch just to the side of the door.

Smaller tabletop lights are also available in the form of lamps and electronic candles.  These can be turned on and off individually as necessary.  We would like to remind people leaving the room to make sure these types of lights are turned off, since they will not do so automatically when not in use.

There are also devices in the room that provide more customizable ambient lighting.  More information about these options appears on subsequent tabs.

Sunlight is an essential ingredient for a healthy lifestyle, but many of us don´t get the amount of bright light we need to experience its benefits.  The HappyLight® Lumi light therapy lamp safely brings daylight indoors by emitting a bright white light that mimics sunlight. Plug it in & get happy!

This speaker can pair to your device through a Bluetooth connection, but it can also function silently as a multicolored light.  Simply press the power button to turn it on, then set your desired display color by touching its top.  There is even a mode that will automatically cycle through all six available colors.
