Is this Lamp certified for therapy

There isn't an official certification process, but this is one of the most highly recommended lamps for therapy by both sleep doctors and psychiatrists. This is because this specific lamp was tested in more scientific studies on circadian rhythm and seasonal depression than any other lamp.

sorry I have no idea. I don't use it as a lamp. I just use it as a hanging decoration.

The information about how long to use it each day must be in the packaging. This is a medical device. There is a prescription of X number a minutes at x distance. Yes, you can increase the distance-to a point. If the information is not in your packaging then I question that this is actually a light therapy lamp. At too great a distance it is no longer a therapy lamp - just a nice lamp. Most doctors refer their patients to Northern Lights Technologies.

Not sure I fully understand your question - seems more suited for your therapist but I can tell you this is one damn good light. Hope it helps you find what you're looking for.

I would not purchase this lamp. I received a third degree burn plus an ugly scar just by touching one if the bulbs. I am not sure if the voltage.

I looked on the paper that came with the lamp and it didn't have any company contact information-maybe that was on the box ? Sorry I couldn't really answer your question !

I do not remember. This is not a good lamp. You get better at Walmart or Target.

I believe it is. I love this lamp. I use it as a lovely night light. It has a dimmer and is very bright, I can read with it, to a low soft light even my husband can sleep with. It disperses the oils efficiently. I am ordering another as a birthday present for myself to have in my living room. I recommend this!

It was immediately for me. It was subtle, but I knew I felt moew hopeful after the first session. As long as I get 15-30 minutes of light therapy, I am much more hoeful, & I sleep more soundly as well. I LOVE THIS LAMP!!!It has made winter much more bearable for me. Heck, I may use this thing year round. I highly recommend trying it if you get depressed every winter & have trouble sleeping. Sincerely, Kara:)

It is not "officially" a SAD lamp but that is just because it is not marketed as one. I spent some time looking though medical journals and other scholarly articles and found that this lamp has the same output that has been reported to be effective for many people. But you are not "many people", the only real way to find out if it will work for your SAD symptoms is to give it a try. Yes, it worked for me, and I predict it will work for you. Remember that having the bright light near you is important so you experience the intensity, twice the distance is one fourth the intensity. Also, having the light at or below eye level has been reported to be the best angle. If this lamp does not work you can keep it as a very good desk lamp and buy a more expensive SAD light.

Yes, but I wouldn't purchase this lamp. Mine only lasted a few weeks before it shorted out and stopped working.

I believe, the supplier offers the warranty, not the manufacturer "if" it is indeed the EXACT lamp....

this is a standard lamp base ( also known as an Edison base or medium base ), not a candelabra base. This lamp also needs to be in an open environment due to its heat output. ( not enclosed in a fixture )

I'm not sure. The lamp is rated 4000 hours, 5000 hours in Eco-Mode. Maybe your not opperating in Eco-Mode?

No, because this lamp does not produce ultraviolet (UV) rays. Your skin only produces vitamin D when it's exposed to UV-B light.
