Floating in a sensory deprivation tank increases dopamine production, lowers blood pressure and lowers the stress hormone, cortisol. By doing so, floating significantly reduces the cause of stress related illnesses.


 

Being in an isolation tank also increases feelings of self-confidence and improves focus and concentration.


 

Spending time in a float tank helps with acute insomnia, speeds recovery from jet lag and helps with rapid elimination of fatigue.

these places.
