Green Light Therapy for Migraine: Allay Desk Lamp Light

Recently, I’ve been trying the Allay Desk Light after loving their green lamp. I use green light therapy for migraine which reduces my light sensitivity and pain. The desk light offers the same benefits as the Allay lamp but in a thinner design made for workspaces. In this post, I’ll tell you about the Allay desk light, the differences from the lamp, and have a GIVEAWAY  and DISCOUNT CODE!

The Allay Desk Light was given to me in exchange for my honest review. The links I use may be affiliate links which means I’ll receive compensation. This money supports My Migraine Life, thank you! Remember that I am not a medical professional and any new treatment should be discussed with your doctor.

What Color is Good for Migraine?

Allay Desk Light vs Allay Lamp

Both lights give the same quality green light therapy. The green desk light illuminates a focused area with the patented Allay narrow-band green light wavelength. The “throw” of the light is more direct.  The Allay Lamp illuminates the entire room and area with green or white light. When I use the lamp, I use it to play games with my kids, as my only light in a room and in a way that illuminates a big space.

The Allay Desk Light directly streams green light in a more precise way. This is great for extremely light-sensitive people with migraine, like me. The 180-degree arm is designed to shoot light in a smaller, more direct way while still giving the benefits of Allay green light. The desk lamp is thin and sleek in style. It is lightweight and easily portable.

The question I’d ask yourself when purchasing is, how much light do I want and how will I use it? If you are looking to illuminate your room, then I’d go with the original Allay Lamp. I use it when I’m cooking as my only light when we play games at night, and during bedtime stories. We’ve also used it for power outages. The cost is $149. (But you can get $25 off ) If you are looking for a more direct green light experience for reading or smaller throws of light, then I’d go with the desk light. Really, you can’t go wrong. They both provide the patented green light therapy for migraine.

Allay Desk Lamp Review

While I think of the desk lamp as something I would be reading under, I use it for different reasons than that. I have been using green light therapy for migraine next to my bed. I already have lots of things on my nightstand, so the small design fits perfectly.

The desk lamp is the most beneficial, for me, in the middle of the night when I’m fumbling around for medication. I often wake up with migraine attacks and it’s scary and disorienting. If I flick on a regular white bulb during this time, my migraine attack gets exasperated. But when I lift the Allay desk lamp arm, I light only a small space with green narrow light. I can keep it dim or brighten it enough to light a path to the bathroom or my nightstand to reach for relief.  Since it shoots the light down, my room is not fully illuminated and the light doesn’t trigger my migraine attack further. My eyes are not overstimulated or pained and I’m able to return to sleep more easily.

There is something so soothing about Allay’s green light and I can see why research is backing it. When using it, I get a sense of calm when typical overhead lights make me feel tense. The green is hard to photograph and often doesn’t show the soothing color that it is. The desk lamp offers a less expensive option with a more controlled light source.
