Float Therapy addresses both mental and physical health as it aides in combating hypertension, arthritis, back pain, muscle fatigue, and insomnia.  Pain reduction is one of the most beneficial aspects of floating.  Many users report a significant decrease in pain levels after just one float.

 

In addition to these physical benefits, floating contributes to changes in the brain’s chemistry.  Research on floating has found that the brain responds positively to the floating experience by increasing the amount of endorphins produced while decreasing stress related chemicals such as cortisol, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and ACTH.  By reducing these “fight or flight” chemicals, the brain is better able to deal with daily stresses.
