Benefits of Float Therapy

Float therapy, or sensory deprivation therapy, has gained popularity for its potential health and wellness benefits. Some of the reported benefits include:
  • Stress Reduction: The sensory deprivation tank provides a calming environment, reducing external stimuli and promoting relaxation. This can help lower stress levels and promote a sense of tranquility.
  • Pain Relief: Floating in buoyant, salt-infused water can alleviate pressure on joints and muscles, potentially offering relief from chronic pain conditions such as arthritis or back pain.
  • Improved Sleep: Regular floatation sessions may contribute to better sleep quality by reducing stress and promoting a state of deep relaxation, making it easier for individuals to fall asleep and stay asleep.
  • Enhanced Creativity: Some people find that float therapy can enhance creative thinking and problem-solving abilities. The quiet and distraction-free environment may allow the mind to wander and make new connections.
  • Mental Clarity: Float therapy can provide a mental reset, helping individuals to clear their minds, reduce mental fatigue, and gain clarity in their thoughts.
  • Muscle Recovery: The buoyancy of the water and the Epsom salt content can aid in muscle recovery, making float therapy popular among athletes for post-workout relaxation and recovery.
  • Mind-Body Connection: Floating can facilitate a deeper connection between the mind and body. It allows individuals to focus inward, promoting mindfulness and self-awareness.
  • Reduced Anxiety and Depression Symptoms: Some users report a reduction in symptoms of anxiety and depression after regular floatation sessions, possibly due to the relaxation response and sensory reduction.
It's important to note that individual experiences may vary, and scientific research on the specific benefits of float therapy is still evolving.​

Floating for Health

The “pure” physical relaxation of floating is known to trigger the body’s natural powers of healing and regeneration, which can be suppressed by the day-to-day stress of competitive urban life. Customers leave the tank feeling refreshed, recharged and revitalized. You can have a silent float or we can play soft ambient meditation music into the tank for part of the the float session. The music comes up through the water from underneath the tank.
