The invention that provides Pacific sunshine in Britain
Briefly

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) affects an estimated 2 million Britons, particularly women, due to insufficient sunlight exposure. Symptoms range from low energy to lack of enthusiasm. The Real Sunlight Clinic offers artificial sunshine experiences, allowing visitors to enjoy warmth reminiscent of tropical locales like Mauritius and Miami, without the need for travel. This service caters to those unable to access genuine sunlight during cold winters, providing a potential remedy supported by NHS advice for managing SAD.
At the flick of a switch, you can flit between Mauritius, Miami and Bali - or, at least, their sunshine equivalents. It's estimated that 2 million Britons suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), caused by a lack of sunlight, with up to three times more women than men affected.
In the past, if you were down in the dumps during winter, the advice would be to buck up or buy a ticket somewhere hot. But what if you can't afford to?
Symptoms include low-level depression, lack of energy and a loss of enthusiasm for life. The syndrome is so widespread, the NHS has set up a web page giving advice on how to tackle it - which includes artificial sun.
