Light Therapy Products, Education and Services for Treating Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
DELL PHARMACY LETS YOU TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
|
While most people who suffer from seasonal affective disorders respond well --and quickly-- to SAD light therapy, a 14-day trial can tell you if light therapy, or a particular kind of light, works for you. Rent a unit from Dell for a two week period for only $50. If you decide to purchase the light therapy product, your $50 rental fee will be applied to the cost of the unit.

If you dread the shorter days of fall and winter, you're not alone. Up to 25 percent of Canadians experience some symptoms of seasonal affective disorder each year.
SAD is characterized by recurrent depression at the same time every year. The most common type is winter seasonal affective disorder or "winter blues."
Light therapy products are the most effective means of treating seasonal affective disorder--and they are available at all Dell Pharmacy locations across Ontario.
But heading to the mall and picking a light off the shelf may not get you the results you're looking for. Visit your local Dell Pharmacy for high quality products and information and advice from our specially-trained staff, including:
- a range of SAD light therapy units, carefully selected for effectiveness and safety
- in-depth consultation, instruction and follow up;
- small group learning sessions on SAD seasonal affective disorder, facilitated by a Dell pharmacist;
- a trial rental period for SAD therapy products, including SAD light therapy (not applicable to mail order);
- an official medical receipt, since some benefits programs will reimburse you for SAD light therapy; and
- a free information package.
Choose Safe Lights for SAD Therapy
Dell Pharmacy protects your health by making product safety a top priority.
Some light therapy boxes used for treating seasonal affective disorders emit white light, which peaks in the blue light spectrum. Blue light can be hazardous to eye health--it has been recently linked to macular degeneration, which is a serious eye disease. To ensure patient safety, Dell Pharmacy only carries lights for SAD that do not peak in the blue light spectrum.

Dell Pharmacy carries a variety of Canadian-made 10,000-lux light boxes and portable lights for treating seasonal affective disorder. Below we feature three of our most popular light therapy products. Visit any Dell Pharmacy to see our complete line of lights for SAD and learn more about treating seasonal affective disorder.
