Now the machine is t he one with cancer.
Too bad they left it behind; those things aren't cheap (at least for someone like me), and are infinitely helpful...
Interesting that the medical community is now touting Vitamin D as the cure all for several types of cancer. Now they are saying that a little bit of sun is more beneficial!
grow light
thats really good.
weird but awesome.
(:
the sun lamp could also be early treatment for patients with Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) most people when dx'ed with that have special lighting. There is a chance that S.A.D wasn't around when this hospital was up and running- that i am not sure of.
I am fairly sure it was..It is not as though {sad] is or was a trend.
Sun lamps were also used to treat some skin conditions.
Also, much more effective in treating "bi-polar", depression, and SAD.
That machine has had it's heart broken so many times.


For SAD you need a big panel of soft diffused light you can sit or lay next to.
they also thought that sun light helped cure tuberculosis....
Looks like a droid from Star Wars - like something the Jawas would try to sell
u got one hell of a tan with that thing
