ABSTRACT:
A method of tanning or treatment with ultraviolet radiation consists of providing a source of artificial ultraviolet radiation; providing a motor powered turntable in juxtaposition to the source of artificial ultraviolet radiation; energizing the source of artificial ultraviolet radiation; positioning an individual or object to be irradiated on the turntable; and energizing the motor of the turntable to rotate it for a selected period of time. The sources of artificial ultraviolet radiation are preferably elongated fluorescent sun lamps which provide separate sources of UVA and UVB radiation. The turntable is rotated at least one complete revolution during the selected time that the individual or object is positioned thereon and more preferably at a rate of one revolution per minute. The sun lamps may be energized for the same selected period of time as the turntable, although when both UVA and UVB lamps are provided, the timers allow a lesser amount of time for the UVB radiation than for the UVA radiation. Preferably, the turntable and the UVA lamp are energized by the same timer controlled circuit and the UVB lamp is energized by a separate timer controlled circuit.
