    They are always good for the Rudolf look!! My kids think it is hilarious. I never use it consistently enough to know if it works though. You have reminded me to get it out the cupboard again!!

    The bad news is, this has absolutely no basis in science.

    Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 1997 Apr;78(4):399-406.
    Narrow-band red light phototherapy in perennial allergic rhinitis and nasal polyposis.
    Neuman I, Finkelstein Y.

    CONCLUSIONS: Allergic rhinitis, if uncomplicated by polyps or chronic sinusitis, can be effectively treated by narrow-band red light illumination of the nasal mucosa at 660 nm, with marked alleviation of clinical symptoms. Whenever possible, candidates for phototherapy should be selected by endoscopic examination.

    There are other studies too. I checked it out before I bought. Search on pubmed using the terms "phototherapy" and "allergic rhinitis"

    i bought one of these last year for my dust allergy and it works brilliantly! it works so well that i have stopped putting off dusting as before using this i could either dust once a week and suffer for 2-3 days afterwards or dust once a month and suffer 2-3 days afterwards, so you can imagine which one i chose, now i can dust every day if i like and i have this to keep me from getting the headaches, runny nose and raw throat i would normally get :T
