My partner has epilepsy (not photo-sensitive).
Is the light safe to use with him in the same room?

Photosensitive epilepsy is triggered by flashing lights but our have a very high frequency flicker. Coupled with the fact your partner is NOT photo-sensitive it's unlikely to be a problem. Hope that helps?

Hi, Lumie here. Firstly, we recommend 40W max in the Bodyclock Classic. You can order them from us if you can't get them locally.
Brightspark or Desklamp would be good whilst you're on a laptop.
Can't find any studies where lights were used specifically to help with menopause.
Please phone us (we don't bite!) on 01954 780500 if you have specific queries - we're not alerted to posts here.

Is it safe for my 12 year old Grandaughter to use the light box. Is there a lower age limit? Thank you.
