Benefits Of Float therapy
Decreases Stress & Anxiety / Improves Mood
The Float Therapy experience involves lying in a pool filled with 400kg of Epsom salts, with water that is perfectly heated to your external body temperature. You will quickly be transported into a deep state of theta relaxation; A meditative state your body and mind progress into for an optimal healing process. This state helps heal the body, reduces stress and anxiety, and immerses the body into deep relaxation.
Improves Sleep Quality / Decreases Chronic Fatigue
Floating can help relieve stress and boost your mood in two ways. Firstly, the magnesium levels in the float pool help regulate cortisol production (your body’s primary stress hormone). Magnesium also enhances sleep quality, which will contribute to feeling less stressed overall. Second, the sensory deprivation component of floating aids in minimising stress. Floating also triggers the release of endorphins and dopamine in the brain, leaving you with all of those feel-good hormones!
Pain Management & Reduced Inflammation
Float therapy helps reduce muscle pain by increasing blood flow to the brain, organs and limbs. Floatation therapy’s features make it an excellent choice for treating physical pain, as well as assisting the body’s recovery from injury and pain-related disorders. Floating has proved to show relief of symptoms from pain disorders such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, tendinitis, bursitis and many more.
Float therapy can be the perfect complement to physiotherapy, chiropractic or massage therapy as it helps reduce inflammation in joints and muscles. The zero-gravity environment has helped individuals with fibromyalgia by increasing energy and assisting their ease of movement.
Boosts Creativity & Mindfulness
Floating provides an ideal setting for mindfulness and meditation. The float pool removes all physical and mental distractions, allowing you to focus much more deeply. It also induces a unique level of awareness that promotes communication between the left and right hemispheres of the brain. While you are floating, the brain can hold a theta state wave while the body is awake and calm, which is normally only achievable during sleep. This mindset, combined with fewer distractions, allows you to fully absorb new information and think more clearly.
Musicians, writers, and creative performers have reported a boost in creativity after their float. Floating increased artists’ technical skills during jazz improvisation, according to a study published in the journal Music and Medicine.
