Float tanks, or sensory deprivation tanks, are said to have many benefits, including:
- Reducing stress, anxiety, and depression
- Improving sleep
- Reducing chronic pain
- Improving mental clarity and learning
- Boosting creativity and productivity
- Healing skin issues like eczema and psoriasis
- Reducing blood pressure and cortisol
- Improving blood flow
- Enhancing awareness and clarity
- Boosting the immune system
- Improving recovery and performance for athletes
Float tanks work by reducing external sensory stimuli, which helps you relax and focus on yourself. The high concentration of magnesium sulfate in the Epsom salt float solution provides buoyancy, so you float in complete comfort.
Float tanks may be a good option for those struggling with mental health issues. They can provide these benefits without a doctor's visit or prescriptions.
