WELCOME!
We are going to talk to
you about the tank for a few minutes. We will include the things we have found
most people want to know before their first float.
Many people have some fear
or concern before they use the tank the first time. Fears such as being alone in
the dark, drowning, not having enough air, claustrophobia, and others. The fears
are usually the thought or the idea that YOU won't be in control of the
situation, but in this situation you are totally in control. You can go in and
out of the tank as you please. You can use the tank with the door completely
open, you can keep it partially open, or you can close it. There is no
particular way to use the tank that is more correct than another. Any way you
use it, that is comfortable for you, is correct.
Before Your Float
Reduce your
caffeine intake a couple of hours before your float. Don't be hungry and
don't be full--you don't want those distractions.
The Tank is Not Airtight
The tank is designed so that it is not airtight. You'll have plenty of air.
The air enters at the rear of the tank. You may prefer to have your head at that
end.
1,000
Pounds of Epsom Salts
The tank
environment is humid. There are 10 inches of water in the tank with 1,000 lbs.
of Epsom salt dissolved in it. When you lie back you will float like a cork.
Your ears will be under water. There are earplugs available if you would like
them, and we recommend them if you have ever had ear problems.
Buoyant
Body Positions
You can experiment with the best body position for
you. For example, hands behind head, on your chest, along your sides. If you
have tension in your neck you can relieve it by clasping your hands behind your
head or using a head float. Some people lay still the entire time, some
people are active
(i.e., self body adjustments, playing, yoga).
Keep the
Salt Out of Your Eyes!
If you get any salt water in your eyes you will be
uncomfortable for a few minutes. To avoid getting drips of salt water in your
eyes, push your hair back on your forehead when you change from lying down to
sitting up. Also keep your salty hands away from your eyes. If you do happen to
get salt in your eyes, have your towel where you can easily reach it, and use it
to wipe your eyes.
More
Ouch!!
If possible, please do not shave before your float
due to 1000 pounds of salt in the water. If you have cuts or scratches or
have recently shaved, there may be stinging for several minutes. If you have any
open cuts use liquid bandage or petroleum jelly (provided) to seal them.
Last
Stop Before Boarding
Remove your metal jewelry. Shower, shampoo, rinse
thoroughly and dry your face before you get in the tank.
The End
Then get into the tank. After an hour passes a
friendly person will knock on the tank which will let you know your time is up.
Please knock back to acknowledge that you have heard the person. Sit up,
stand and squeegee the solution from your body before getting out of the tank.
Step directly into the shower in front of the tank.
Housekeeping
Care
Your body has salt water all over it, shower, shampoo
well, and dress or use the bathrobe that is provided. The bathroom has the
amenities you need.
Reflects
Your Life
At the beginning of each float you can set an
intention for what you would like to accomplish during your float. You may also
use your float to observe where you hold tension in your body or your mind. You
will develop many of your own ways of using your floats. We don't say more
because we don't want to spoil your own adventure.
Remember, one hour in the floatation tank is equal to 4
hours of sleep, so, expect to experience the deepest relaxation you have ever
felt--you deserve it.
We are honored
and delighted to have you as our guest.
Namaste,
