Light can set the tone for a therapy session in therapy rooms. Flexible lighting, with a variable colour temperature can boost activity or create a relaxing environment. The use of colour can also be beneficial.
The lighting design must be flexible as most therapy activities do not require a specific room layout or equipment and these spaces are often multi-functional. Natural light has a positive effect on stress and feelings of anxiety and can be helpful in a counselling setting. We have developed lighting, to support daylight and help regulate our circadian rhythm.
Tuneable white lighting can be raised to a cool colour temperature to replicate daylight providing an energy boost or lowered to a warm colour temperature to create a restful environment.
Technical Support
Vertical illuminance must be considered to ensure good personal interaction. Lighting vertically onto surfaces can also help spaces feel less oppressive.
