Float Pod

Floatation Therapy is a luxurious way to soothe and heal the body from the constant stress of life’s daily pressures. Our Float Tanks use Epsom Salt, Magnesium Sulfate, in a high concentration so that the relative density of the solution is about 1.25. The density assists floating, particularly making the head buoyant, so that the nose and mouth are well out of the water for breathing.

Leave the noise and confusion behind and experience total relaxation and deep healing in your own private, peaceful space … it is truly the ultimate ESCAPE!

Benefits of Floating

Magnesium is absorbed through the skin due to natural molecular diffusion. Magnesium is naturally absorbed from our diet, but in many areas of the world over-cropping without adequate replacement of magnesium makes the normal diet low in magnesium. The body naturally optimizes the levels of magnesium, so there is no overload effect from floating in salt water for an extended period of time.

Flotation Therapy requires a soundproof and lightproof Float Tank filled with heated water (to skin temperature of 94-95 degrees F) and a very high concentration (800 to 1,000 lbs.) of Epsom Salts. The resultant high density allows ones body to float naturally and spontaneously without effort. Due to the high salt levels in the water, the Flotation Tank creates a zero gravity environment.

Zero gravity allows you to relax every single muscle, your neck, arms, back, and even ears. The Float Tank enables you to find those areas you are holding tense so you can let go. The Float Tank creates a state of sensory relaxation as the mind and body are shielded from all the external stimulation. The brains normal workload is reduced by up to 90%, the body conserves energy and has a chance to heal and rejuvenate itself. Floating in darkness allows areas of the brain, which are always in use when awake, to be liberated from their work.

Tests have shown that there is a drop in electrical activity of the brain and you begin to generate theta brain waves, which are associated with deep relaxation. The darkness during Floating also induces a balance between the left and right brain. There is a shift from the normally dormant left side of the brain (logical, analytical, rational) to the right side (intuition, mental clarity and creativity). For the first time, both sides of the brain are in harmony and the balance it creates allows you to use huge amounts of previously unavailable brainpower. One of the major sources of stimulation in humans is the temperature gradient change on the surface of the body. Temperature inside the Float Tank is isothermal over the surface of the body so that the nerve endings covering the surface of the skin no longer perceive a separation between the skin and the solution inside the Float Tank.
