Floatation therapy was developed in the 1950s at the National Institute of Health. The concept is similar to the mineral salt baths at the Dead Sea in Israel. Multiple therapies are occurring when you´re in a salt bath. First and most obvious is the elimination of gravity. A 1/2 ton of Epsom salt is dissolved into a shallow pool of skin-temperature water to create this effect. Aside from floating, only deep sea divers and astronauts are able to enjoy this break from gravity´s pressure. I was recently at a seminar on spinal decompression during which the chiropractor said that if we could get free of gravity, we could eliminate back pain. I used the low gravity environment of the float tank to accelerate the healing process. Within three days, I brought six years of debilitating back pain to a complete stop. That was four years ago. After recently looking at my x-rays, my chiropractor concluded that I should still be in constant pain. He also attributes my recovery to float therapy.
Magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt) is a mild muscle relaxant, which contributes to the deep relaxation experienced while floating. When you float, your brain responds to this deep relaxation by releasing endorphins, which help to relieve pain, improve mood and boost the immune system.
Third and most unique is the fact that floating quickly changes brainwaves from beta to theta, which is where accelerated healing occurs. If someone suffers chronic pain, hypertension or insomnia, they´re probably not getting the benefits of theta when they´re sleeping. This is the reason why many users claim that 1 hour in the float tank feels like 4-8 hours of quality sleep -they´re enjoying the theta state in a fraction of the normal time needed.

1. Have you ever wondered why astronauts are always smiling? Zero gravity feels great!
Floating combines weightlessness, a huge burst of endorphins, and a shift from beta to theta brainwaves. Theta is where accelerated healing occurs.
I went from nearly paralyzed to pain-free in one hour.

5. While we have learned much about REST in the last twenty years, its potential in applied psychophysiology has barely been exploited. In this age of cyberspeak, we might begin to think of expanding the clinical bandwidth of applied psychophysiology by taking another look at REST. Private Membership

7. Flotation tank in unique property, that of a lighthouse,
at the junction of the Severn and the Usk Estuaries, overlooking the Bristol Channel.
While you float, your body produces beta endorphins which make you feel good. Toxins are extracted through the pores of the skin and your body will feel cleansed from inside out. It is just an amazing experience!
