Flotation Tanks/Immersion Therapy for ME/CFS and FM?

[Cort]

I imagine that it does work - I imagine it feels wonderful for the body to relax like that - I wonder if you do it enough it would help the body to kind of reset itself somehow. You've got 800 lbs of Epsom salts in each one! I imagine it is very expensive as well!

  Bliss is the word to describe how I feel after having a Float session at the @Wellness Studio Geelong today. I really can't recommend a float session enough for CFS sufferers.
  
  I was thinking back to when I was severely ill with CFS and I would have absolutely LOVED this therapy. The feeling of weightlessness from the water added with the removal of all light and sound in the float tank is something that would have helped ease symptoms so much.

THE PATHWAY TO ACHIEVE A STATE OF COMPLETE RELAXATION:

RELEASE YOURSELF FROM GRAVITY…

Floating offers a safe haven where you can escape everyday life, focus on healing and explore different states of consciousness. Floating offers many advantages:

• pain management, including back and neck aches, migraines, muscle and joint soreness
• stress management
• athletic recovery and performance visualization
• relief from discomforts of pregnancy
• help with sleep disorders
• spiritual discovery and meditation
• creativity enhancement and super-learning.

Inside the float tank. This solution is 30cm deep and warmed to skin temperature (34.5 degrees). This extremely dense solution enables people of all body types to float effortlessly and, to a large extent, escape the pull of gravity. The flotation tank is light and sound-proof, greatly reducing sensory stimulation. This unique environment frees the brain from the bulk of its processing duties and prompts theta wave production.
