FLOTATION THERAPY

Complete physical & mental de-stressing

Flotation Therapy was developed from the early work of Dr. John Lilly who was a neurophysiologist and psychoanalyst. In 1954 he conducted research into how the brain would react when it was denied external stimulation.
His flotation tanks were originally called sensory deprivation chambers. When the therapeutic benefits of these chambers were noticed the name changed to Flotation Therapy.

Flotation Therapy is a way of isolating the mind and body from any external stimuli. A way of attaining the deepest rest that humankind has ever experienced. This in turn helps produce deep relaxation

Lie suspended in a warm solution of Epsom salt only 25cm deep. The salt solution in a floatation tank or floatroom is so dense that you float effortlessly. Gentle music helps you to relax. In short, "It's complete mental and physical relaxation."

The treatment involves the patient lying in a sound proof tank of water. The water has salts and minerals dissolved into it which enables the body to float.

These days most flotation tanks are installed in health clubs. The tanks measure around 8ft long by 4ft wide..

The flotation takes place in complete darkness. Some flotation tanks may play relaxation tapes or there may be a two way microphone so you may talk to a practitioner.
