FLOATING – SENSORY DEPRIVATION

Inside our floatation tank 450 kg’s of Epsom-salts are added to 600l of water, creating a deep solution, which is heated to body temperature, 35°c. This temperature means that it is virtually impossible to distinguish between parts of the body that are in the water, and those that aren’t. The buoyancy created by the Epsom-salt creates an experience of weightlessness on the body. Removing the effects of gravity.

Most people are unaware of the strain that gravity places on the body, the brain power used to deal with it every second is huge. Floating weightlessly in our pods frees all sensation of temperature, touch, sight and sounds allowing you to reach ultra-deep relaxation which resets the body’s hormonal and metabolic balance, strengthening resistance to and accelerating recovery from the effects of stress, illness, injury or strenuous exercise.

During a float experience the brain gradually shifts from its usual waking beta state to generate deep alpha, theta or delta waves, the state-of-mind That Buddhist monks try to reach through hours of meditation and years of training.
