Float 606

What is Floating? Float therapy is the method of using a special flotation tank for a light-proof, restrictive environment stimulus experience. The floatation tank or pool is filled with roughly 11 inches of skin temperature water mixed with pounds of Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate, MgSO4). The float solution keeps the body completely weightless, which alleviates many of the effects of pain, stress, and anxiety to which we are constantly exposed in the outside world. Pretty much anyone can enjoy a float. The use of float tanks is not limited to a particular demographic. People who need to manage stress, increase creativity or reducing pain find floating therapeutic. There are conditions where you should not float: if you have epilepsy, drug or alcohol intoxication, infectious disease, open wounds and serious psychological conditions. It's also important to mention being able to get in and out of our pod or float pool without assistance. It is similar to getting in and out of a bathtub. Our staff is not trained in transferring clients. The salt water is very silky. No light. No noise. No sound. Those looking for more of a scientifically supported reason to try floating will be happy to know it's backed by a lot of ongoing research. Although there's still a lot to learn regarding the physiological effects of a reduced stimuli environment, floating is believed to potentially help alleviate all sorts of stress-related problems, such as: Mood Related disorders and symptoms of depression and anxiety. Lowers cortisol, the stress hormone Headaches Burnout and frequent sick days Chronic fatigue and low energy Jet lag Difficulty sleeping or insomnia Sports Recovery Chronic pain relief Stress reduction Symptoms of withdrawal Just having a little "Me time" is good for the soul!
