What’s truly impressive about float tanks is that almost every one of the benefits experienced lasts for several days, beyond the float itself. In fact, the lengthier the float session and the more often float therapy is utilized, the effects become stronger and last longer. In our regular salt therapy floaters, we can see these improvements, in person, at every appointment. Fortunately, floatation creates a positive cycle of recovery and health that simply works to reinforce itself, providing people everywhere with a path – and a means – to a better life.
If you are questioning, “What is float therapy and is it for me?” review the below sections, which will reassure you that our Float8 floating tanks welcome everyone – without discrimination – for this incredibly healing ritual.

In addition, floating regularly can help boost focus – especially if you are experiencing difficulties from concussions – and visualization tactics to improve your sports performance. Read More
