Float tanks may seem a little confusing to those of you who have never used one before, but we at Naples Massage and Neuromuscular know what incredible benefits await those who give it a try. If you are considering stopping in and trying out one of our float tanks, be sure to read on to find out what incredible benefits lay ahead for you.
Sleep
If you struggle with insomnia, a session in one of our float tanks may be exactly what you need. The peaceful calm can often lull our clients to sleep and pull them into a deep state of relaxation. Many of our clients have reported having a wonderful night’s sleep after a session with us, which can even inspire a chain reaction of excellent sleep in the nights following. Those of you who may be experiencing jet lag after a trip may feel more well-rested and adjusted to the time change after a session with us, as well.
Creativity and Energy
There’s something to be said about the benefits to shutting down our brains for just an hour a day. Many people experience a surge in creative energy and thought after spending time in a restorative float tank. For those of you who pursue more athletic activities than creative ones, we encourage you to try playing your sport of choice after a session with us. Many athletes report pain disappearing and a higher energy level for the duration of their activity.
Focus
There was a study done at Ohio State University in which Professor T. Fine took a group a competitive rifle target shooters to spend an hour in a float tank. The rest of the shooters were given restful sleep in their beds. After an hour in the float tank shortly before a shooting event, the floaters performed better than their non-floating counterparts and even exceeded their past personal scores. Resetting their minds for that hour before the competition helped them to better focus and stay in control while shooting.
Depression Relief
If you are someone who suffers from depression, float tank therapy may be able to help. The relaxation your body feels can elevate your happiness and help alleviate troubling thoughts. Women struggling with post-natal depression come to us as well for help relaxing their minds and bodies.
Pain Relief
Our bodies are very powerful healing tools, but they require adequate amounts of rest and low-stress levels to truly heal. Floatation therapy allows many people to relax in such a way that your muscles will relax, and arthritis pain can even be soothed.
