The growing availability of LED-based portable therapy lamps and wearable devices is further strengthening product demand among individual consumers and wellness centers. Manufacturers operating in the seasonal affective disorder therapeutics market are increasingly adopting strategic initiatives, including product launches, technological advancements, partnerships, digital integration, and geographical expansion, to strengthen their market position.
