FLOAT THERAPY

Floating in a super-saturated solution of Epsom salts and water liberates you from the sensations of gravity, temperature, touch, sight, and sound. This deeply restorative experience rejuvenates your body and mind, offering a reset from the stresses of daily life.

 

 
 
 

What is Float Therapy?

Float therapy, entails floating effortlessly in a tank filled with skin temperature water saturated with Epsom salts. This environment eliminates external stimuli such as light, sound, and gravity, creating a sensory-free experience.

It promotes relaxation, reduces stress, relieves pain, and enhances mental clarity. Floating may stimulate creativity, meditation, and introspection. Many people report improved sleep quality and reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression. Float therapy provides profound physical and mental benefits, offering a unique form of relaxation and self-exploration.

Why float?

If you seek relief from stress, pain, and anxiety while aiming to enhance athletic performance and overall well-being, float therapy could be your solution. The restorative tank environment conserves and redirects significant physical and mental energy, leaving you rejuvenated, relaxed, and at ease.

Weightlessness in the tank decompresses the spine, inducing deep relaxation, reducing cortisol, and increasing dopamine and endorphins. This accelerated healing process addresses the tolls of modern life, including stress, sleep deprivation, intense workouts, and jet lag.

  • Float therapy enhances stress resistance by promoting deep relaxation and reducing cortisol levels. Immersion in a sensory-free tank allows for complete relaxation, easing tension and anxiety.

  • Float therapy addresses poor sleep by inducing deep relaxation, lowering cortisol, and increasing serotonin production. In a sensory-deprived tank, individuals experience profound relaxation, promoting restful sleep. Float therapy offers a natural solution for improving sleep quality and overall well-being.

  • In the tank's isolated environment, external inputs diminish, giving the nervous system a much-needed break. In our busy, media-packed lives, such silence is rare yet rejuvenating. This experience revitalizes both body and mind, countering chronic stressors like noise and pollution, which can contribute to various health issues.

  • Float therapy fosters mindfulness, allowing individuals to observe and reflect on their behavioral patterns without distractions. By providing a serene environment free from external stimuli, it promotes introspection and self-awareness. This heightened awareness can empower individuals to identify and modify unhealthy behaviors, leading to positive changes in their lives.

  • Float therapy enhances brain synchronization by promoting communication between the creative right and analytical left lobes. Additionally, it fosters vertical communication among the reptilian, limbic, and neocortex brains. This synchronization leads to increased creativity, non-linear connections, and deeper realizations, facilitating overall cognitive coherence and well-being.

  • Float therapy enhances interoception by heightening awareness of internal bodily sensations. In the sensory-deprivation tank, individuals focus inward, improving perception of subtle physical cues. This increased interoceptive awareness fosters mindfulness, emotional regulation, and self-understanding, leading to greater overall well-being

  • Float therapy enhances visualization by combining deep relaxation with heightened alertness. In this tranquil environment, individuals can vividly visualize their goals, whether it's athletes preparing for competition or public speakers rehearsing presentations. Research supports the effectiveness of mental rehearsal in achieving optimal performance outcomes.

  • Float tanks offer a conducive environment for super learning. The combination of deep relaxation and heightened focus promotes accelerated learning and memory retention. Individuals can absorb information more effectively, making the tank ideal for studying, language learning, or any task requiring enhanced cognitive abilities.

  • Float therapy triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers and mood elevators. In the sensory-deprived environment, individuals experience deep relaxation, reducing stress and pain. This leads to a surge in endorphin levels, promoting feelings of well-being, calmness, and euphoria.

  • After float therapy, senses may feel heightened due to the contrast of sensory deprivation. With reduced external stimuli, individuals become more attuned to subtle sensations, colors, and sounds, leading to a heightened perception of their surroundings and increased sensitivity to stimuli

  • Float therapy aids pain management through sensory deprivation, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. The weightlessness of the body in the buoyant water alleviates pressure on joints and muscles. Additionally, the release of endorphins provides natural pain relief. The absence of external stimuli calms the nervous system, decreasing sensitivity to pain signals. Float therapy enhances circulation, facilitating the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues, promoting healing. Float therapy offers a holistic approach to pain management by addressing physical and psychological aspects of discomfort.

  • Float therapy enhances immune function by reducing stress and promoting relaxation. Stress reduction lowers cortisol levels, which can suppress the immune system. Additionally, the release of endorphins boosts immune response. Improved sleep quality and circulation further support immune function, creating an environment conducive to overall well-being and health.

  • Float therapy accelerates athletic recovery by reducing muscle soreness and inflammation. The buoyancy of the water supports joints and muscles, promoting relaxation and enhancing circulation. This aids in the removal of metabolic waste and delivery of nutrients to muscles, facilitating faster recovery. Moreover, sensory deprivation fosters mental relaxation, reducing stress and promoting overall well-being for optimal athletic performance.

  • Float therapy enhances meditation by providing a distraction-free environment. The sensory deprivation allows for deep relaxation, promoting mental clarity and focus. Buoyancy reduces pressure on the body, facilitating a comfortable and tranquil experience. This serene setting fosters introspection and mindfulness, making it an ideal space for deepening meditation practices.

  • Floating fosters musculoskeletal awareness by eliminating external stimuli, allowing individuals to focus inward. In the weightless environment, people become more attuned to their body's subtle sensations, noticing areas of tension or discomfort. This heightened awareness enables them to address imbalances, improve posture, and enhance overall body awareness for better musculoskeletal health.

  • In float tanks, the Epsom salt solution contains magnesium sulfate, which can be absorbed through the skin. Magnesium is known to support muscle relaxation, alleviate soreness, and promote overall relaxation. This absorption can enhance the therapeutic benefits of floating, aiding in muscle recovery and stress reduction.

  • While not replicating zero-gravity like outer space, floating disperses gravity's forces across the body's surface due to the density of the Epsom Salt solution. This relieves ailments caused by rigid postures and muscular tension, such as lower-back pain, neck pain, shallow breathing, and high blood pressure, by minimizing gravity-related stimulation.

  • Deautomatization in the float tank refers to the process of breaking free from automatic or habitual thought patterns. In the sensory-deprived environment, without external distractions, individuals can more easily disengage from routine thinking and allow their minds to wander freely. This can lead to increased creativity, introspection, and a deeper understanding of oneself.

  • Float therapy supports sensitivity buffering by providing a tranquil environment that minimizes external stimuli. In the sensory-deprivation tank, individuals can gradually desensitize themselves to sensory overload. By allowing the nervous system to relax and recalibrate, float therapy helps individuals manage and regulate their sensitivity to external stimuli more effectively over time.

  • The tank inhibits the sympathetic nervous system responsible for the stress response (fight or flight). Instead, it stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation, healing, and replenishment. This elicits decreased muscle tension, reduced blood pressure, lowered stress hormones, heightened endorphin levels, and an enhanced sense of well-being.
