Float Chicago Information

Float tanks (sometimes called sensory deprivation tanks) are a wellness tool that can be utilized for rest and recovery as well as meditation and mindfulness practices. Imagine the perfect bath. The tub is 8 feet long and 5 feet wide so you have plenty of room to stretch out. There water is only 10 inches deep, but it's filled with 800 pounds of epsom salt, so you float right to the top no matter what. Now heat that water to 93.5º fahrenheit. That's the temperature of your skin so it is easy to forget that the water is even there. Put all of this into a soundproof room to eliminate interruption from the outside world. And then, when you're comfortable, you turn out the lights and relax as the whole world just sort of melts away. Once the mind is free from distractions, it can do some pretty amazing things!
