I take it none of them ever lived in Alaska where you get very little sunlight for six months out of a year. A lot of folks have these to simply keep healthy.
Light therapy is used to treat various skin conditions (acne, psoriasis, eczema) as well as mood and sleep disorders. In many cases doctors will prescribe special light bed or light booth treatments. The lights are designed to give specific wavelengths of light and are strictly regulated by the FDA. These prescription treatments may be administered in conjunction with medications to relieve the condition. In cases where it is not practical for the patient to go to the doctor's office for the treatments they can purchase the equipment for home use.
