WHAT IS FLOATATION THERAPY
Floatation, simply put is floating in salt water in a
specially designed Float Tank. Floatation is a luxurious process of enabling
your one and only body to relax by soothing and healing it free from stress and
give it the treatment it truly deserves. Imagine yourself free from the hold of
gravity or floating in outer space. Unless you’re an astronaut you won’t know
the feeling. And this is where floatation comes in. It’s a unique, fun and
carefree method to maximize your brain’s potential whilst also healing your
body from this world’s constant external stimulation. Allow yourself to float away
and ESCAPE from all those worries through floatation therapy!
FLOAT TANK
Floatation therapy is primarily utilized in a float tank or
a pod which is about 8 ft long and contains 11 inches of water and is maintained
at the human body temperature of 93 degrees F or 36 degrees C, the consistency
of which is 65% water and 35% Epsom salt. A float session typically lasts for
about 60-90 mins.
SENSORY DEPRIVATION
One has to simply lie down in the pod and effortlessly start
floating. The float tank is placed in a room devoid of sound and light which
enhances the floatation experience. This practice is commonly called ‘Sensory
Deprivation,’ the inception of which began as a test to enhance the nervous
system by depriving the body of any external stimulation. Once the floatation
begins, the body adjusts in sync with the water and enters into a rhythm with zero
gravity. The spine elongates and one can feel every part of the body heightened
to awareness followed by relaxation. The only sound one can hear is the
constant beating of the heart. On a daily basis the brain uses up about 90% of
its energy to sense gravity and compute how and where to move and how not to
fall over. With floatation, one is shielded from all sorts of external
stimulation and the brain is free from these complex computations and conserves
90% of its energy thereby reducing the normal workload and enters a 100% state
of relaxation allowing the brain to tend to other important matters. The
effects of this therapy continue even after hours and days of the float
session.
HEALTH EFFECTS AND
BENEFITS
The body at this stage is floating and completely relaxing.
For some it’s like watching a movie wherein one just forgets the problems of
life for those few hours. For another some, it’s the perfect time to allow
oneself to think and boost creativity. Another secondary effect of floatation
is the correction of magnesium deficiency. The Epsom salt contains magnesium
which is absorbed by the skin through a process called ‘natural molecular
diffusion’ and has phenomenal effects on the skin and hair. Epsom salts contain
medicinal properties that provides just the right amount of momentum to let go
of those tense muscles and relax every single muscle in your neck, back, arms
and even ears! Floatation enhances the circulation of blood and also ails in
various problems such as chronic back pain and migraines, stress and anxiety,
insomnia, jet lag amon
gst others.
