In principle : Physical exercise lessens the depressive symptoms, aswell as being exposed to light (paricularly in the winter seasons).

The object of the test : to compair the effect of just exercise or to combine it with light therapy and to verify the effects on our humour and the quality of life.  The test lasts 8 weeks and the results of the questionnaire on humour and quality of life are relative to our health and are linked.

Results : Physical exercise were effective to diminue the depressive symptoms if the person was exposed to light therapy.

So, if you exercise at home install a light therapy lamp infront of your apparatus, the result can only be better.

Professional athletes have understood the interest :

Certain football clubs have been equiped in the changing rooms with light therapy lamps (Baseball football team from Switzerland).

The british rowing team, gold medalists in the Olympic games in Athens in August 2004, were equiped with dawn simulators (also known as sunrise alarm clocks or even light alarms) : 4 members of the team used the dawn simulator to awake them during the games.

One of the members ED Cooke said, “when the final starting getting closer we had to get up earlier and earlier, because it is not light in Athens till 6h30 in the morning, it was great to wake up with sunlight at 4h45 in the morning.  The simulators woke us up full of energy for the final”.

In conclusion Ed Cooke is without ambiguity :

“The simulators have certainly made a difference.  It was alot more useful than we thought it would be!”.
