Welcome

Welcome to the Healing Sun. This website examines the positive influence of the sun's rays on human health. Although in recent years the therapeutic properties of sunlight have received rather less attention than the hazards of exposure, for many thousands of years solar radiation has been used to prevent, and cure, a wide range of afflictions.

So the aim of this website is to bring together information on sunlight and health to complement that already presented in the book The Healing Sun. As more scientific evidence of the benefits of sunlight exposure and of getting sunlight into buildings becomes available it will be examined and discussed in the following pages.
