Because the Sun Touch Plus combines Britewave technology and ion technology, it provides powerful results using a lower level of 10,000 lux light that makes treatment easier on the eyes and more enjoyable to use. This device produces 7,100 Kelvin, making it the highest rated Kelvin light therapy unit on the market and the closest to actual outdoor light. The small size of the light box (13.5 x 9 x 5 inches) makes it easy to use almost anywhere, plus you can take it with you when you travel. The Sun Touch Plus also comes with a built-in timer to help you control the length of your session, and it automatically shuts off when your session is complete. This is helpful function that makes sure you do not overuse your light box. Apollo Health uses high-density ion technology in the Sun Touch Plus. Most regular ionizers on the market are not made to treat winter blues or circadian rhythm disorders; they simply lack the technology to create the high-density result that is needed to be effective. Apollo's ion technology was made to create an effective, therapeutic level of high-density ion, especially for those who suffer from these types of disorders. The latest advancements in ion and needlepoint repulsion technology have been integrated into the Sun Touch Plus, so you get the benefit you need and have no messy filters or rods to clean.
You might be wondering,
What are ions are why are they important? Ions are a charged particles in the air that are formed in nature in different ways. One way is when enough energy acts upon a molecule, such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, or water, to eject an electron from the molecule. This creates a positively charged ion. The displaced electron will eventually attach itself to a nearby molecule. This nearby molecule then becomes a negatively charged ion. It is the negative ion of oxygen that affects us the most. High levels of negative ions are found at the beach, in the mountains, in the country, in pine forests, near waterfalls, and many other places that people generally like to be. Think of outdoors places that make you feel good after you visit them. The Sun Touch Plus helps neutralize the "bad" positive ions -- such as those emitted by PCs, artificial lighting, forced air ventilation, and modern building materials -- that can make you feel tired and tense. Essentially, if you can't make it outdoors or to other locations that are rich with negative, recharging ions on a regular basis, then the Sun Touch Plus can help you cope with the woes and stress of modern office life.
