Flotation Therapy

A method of relaxation, flotation therapy involves floating in a large tank filled with water containing a high concentration of Epsom salts. You wear earplugs, the lights are switched off, and the water is kept at the same temperature as your skin. The result is most people, even many who are highly stressed, relax deeply within minutes.

Flotation therapy may help stress-related problems such as anxiety, migraines and headaches. People with back pain and muscle fatigue may also benefit. The therapy tends to reduce pain because it stimulates the body to release its own natural painkillers, hormone-like substances called endorphins. Some people even experience euphoria.

We just produces a guide on Flotation Therapy, has some interesting facts also such as did you know Nicolas Cage spent time in an isolation tank, probably doing some sessions of Floatation Therapy for training of his character, in the film World Trade Center.
