Floating Therapy
Your Gateway to Relaxation, Recovery, and Self-Discovery
The Origins of Float Therapy
Float therapy, originally developed in 1954 by neuroscientist Dr. John C. Lilly, was born out of a desire to understand human consciousness. Dr. Lilly invented the world’s first sensory deprivation tank to test the effects of removing all sensory input.
His groundbreaking studies revealed that floating in a sensory-free environment allows the brain to relax, often leading to powerful feelings of relief, calm, and even personal insight. Many participants reported experiencing epiphanies and a profound sense of self-awareness. Today, T-Float brings this transformative experience to you with modern amenities and customization options, offering a safe space to unwind and reconnect with yourself.
Choose Your Float Experience
At T-Float, we provide two exceptional floating environments designed to cater to different relaxation preferences:
The Orion Suite
For those seeking an expansive, tranquil float experience, the Orion Suite offers a luxurious cabin filled with 1,500 pounds of magnesium-rich Epsom salt.
This spacious environment is perfect for a deep, restorative float experience. You can customize your session length, choosing from 60- or 90-minute floats, or extend as needed for an extended journey into relaxation.
The DreamPod
Step into a futuristic, cocoon-like pod designed to fully immerse you in sensory deprivation.
The DreamPod is infused with a highly buoyant Epsom salt solution, creating the ideal setting to let go of external distractions. Choose a 60- or 90-minute float session for a deeply calming, introspective experience.
Float Therapy
A Timeless Escape
One of the unique sensations of float therapy is the feeling that time stands still.
Without the usual sensory cues, like clocks or daylight, you may lose track of time, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the present. It’s a deeply introspective experience, free from the pressures of schedules, where you can simply be in the moment.
Unmatched Benefits for Mind and Body
Float therapy offers a wide range of benefits that address some of today’s most common challenges:
Reduce Stress and Anxiety
In the peaceful environment of the float tank, you can escape external stressors, leading to a notable decrease in cortisol (stress hormone) levels and a rise in mental calm.
Relieve Pain and Muscle Tension
The buoyant Epsom salt solution supports your body, relieving physical tension in muscles and joints, making it ideal for those managing pain or recovering from injuries.
Boost Emotional Wellness
Float therapy can release endorphins that elevate mood and reduce symptoms of depression, providing a much-needed sanctuary for emotional relief and well-being.
Enhance Athletic Performance and Recovery
Athletes find float therapy highly beneficial for muscle recovery, focus, and overall performance. It’s a natural way to support the body’s physical recovery process.
Improve Sleep and Mental Clarity
Floating helps to quiet the mind, reduce racing thoughts, and support a deeper, more restful sleep. It can also promote creativity and clarity by giving the brain a “reset.”
Aiding Overall Health and Physical Recovery
The benefits of float therapy extend beyond mental relaxation, providing support for various health conditions. Floating has been known to help:
-
Lower Blood Pressure: Float therapy promotes deep relaxation, which can aid in managing blood pressure levels.
-
Complement Physical Therapy: The buoyant environment supports the body, reducing pain and pressure on joints, while magnesium aids in reducing inflammation.
-
Manage Chronic Conditions: Float therapy may complement treatments for conditions such as fibromyalgia, lupus, and even “chemo-fog,” helping you feel clearer and more centered.
For those recovering from injuries or dealing with chronic pain, float therapy offers a soothing, healing environment that enhances the body’s natural ability to heal.
