Float Spa Therapy

[carterscutie85]

So there's a place here that advertises Float Spa Therapy. You go and float in this sensory deprivation tank for an hour. It has Epsom salts in it and idk what else to help with pain. So many people swear by it for pain relief so my DH is going to go on Wednesday to try it since his back has been hurting him.

Anyone try it? The place has been there for awhile so I assume they must be doing well if they are still in business. They have lots of good reviews online and on their FB too.

I'm going to ask a really dumb question..... is it a closed-in tank? Kwim?

I've never tried anything like this but it sounds like heaven. I hope your husband finds some relief from going. I know backache far too well.

They have both. I could never do a closed one. I'm way too claustrophobic for that lol.

Is it completely dark? I’d think I’d gone blind The whole time, probably last three minutes. But if you’re not the anxious type I would think it would relax your whole body and that helps certain types of pain. He should try it.

That's why I asked and because I'm very claustrophobic as well. lol

I'm not really sure. It doesn't sound like something I would enjoy because TBH I can't just float for an hour. I'd be too bored lol. From their page it seems like they have a lot of options and you can do whatever you are comfortable with.

I love floating in pools, I might try an open one if they do those. But the idea of being closed in total darkness with only my thoughts scares me a little.

There was some weird 80s movie about that. Forget the name but the guy spent so much time in a deprivation tank he started devolving. Literally. Fictional of course but I’ll pass on those sorts of tanks lol.

I can’t get my mind to stop racing. I get bored after 10 minutes of a massage and forget getting my nails done. Actually maybe you would be good for people like us. Learn to be able to float mindlessly for an hour. Actually maybe 10 minutes would be better.
