The importance of the sunlight to healthy living is already well understood. The problem is that the modern lifestyles lack natural light. HumanCharger® is designed to bring light back to the modern lifestyles safely and efficiently. HumanCharger®'s unique and patented mechanism of action is based on recent discoveries (www.humancharger.com/research) that have shown that the surface of the brain has photosensitive receptors, much like those located in the retina of the eye. HumanCharger® earbuds beam calibrated UV-free white light through the ear canals to those photosensitive receptors and stimulate the brain.
Already 12 minute's dose of HumanCharger® bright light therapy helps to
+ increase energy levels,
+ improve mood,
+ increase mental alertness,
+ reduce effects of jet lag and
+ keep the winter blues at bay.
HumanCharger® is used by athletes, shift workers, travelers with jet lag, office workers spending a long time inside, winter blues beaters, and more.
Valkee Ltd., the maker of HumanCharger®, is a health technology company focused on harnessing the benefits of bright light for both mind and performance.
With the HumanCharger®, bright light therapy treatment has evolved beyond a bulky lamp, into an easy to us, beautifully-designed discreet personal appliance to accompany users wherever they are. Valkee Ltd. continues to pioneer research and develop bright light therapy technology further.
