Floatation is scientifically proven to be the most effective form of relaxation. However, it does so much more than just relax you and relieve stress. A huge range of conditions can be treated by regular floating. See our EFFECTS page
WHAT IS FLOATING? Floatation is the most incredible means of stress relief and relaxation available to us. The tank is filled with a heated epsom salt solution, which enables you to float effortlessly on the surface. The water is body temperature (95.5 degrees) so that you can not feel where your body ends and the water starts. The brain believes that you are floating in mid-air!
Because of the weightlessness, every muscle in your body can totally relax. With ear plugs in, the silence and darkness allows your mind to completely shut down. You brain is always working, so once your body is totally supported, there is little for the brain to do - mentally and physically - other than deal with stress, repair and then revive you.
Scientifically they explain it like this: The logical side of your brain slows down until it synchronises with the right (creative) side. This puts you in a dream-like state, allowing your brain to release vast amounts of natures endorphins.
YOUR FLOAT: You wil be in a private lockable room, with access to a toilet and shower. Inside the tank, there are 2 buttons to control the lid and light, you are in control of these for your whole treatment. We have found that 99% of users (even those who previously claimed to be claustrophobic) are floating with the light off and lid down within 3 floats. You choose whether to float with the door open, part closed or totally closed.
Dolphin music will play for the hour, which leaves you feeling totally relaxed and in peaceful sea silence. The music ends at the end of your hour and the lid automatically opens, so you know it is time to leave the tank. After washing off the salt in another shower, you can leave feeling wonderful - even your skin will feel great! Read more about the EFFECTS. Dont forget to bring your own towel.
