I appreciate an objective and complete overview of what floating is, its benefits and the evidence, or lack thereof, to support them. You float in super saturated epsom salt water that is the same temperature as you. Your body doesn’t have to expend any energy to warm up or cool down or stay afloat. Watch Doctor Mike give his take on floating and its benefits, and what he personally got from it.
Here are some summary quotes of his experience. Watch the full video on youtube
I definitely felt more relaxed
My muscles that were tense after my workouts definitely felt a little more relaxed and at ease
I had a boost of creativity
I’m very wound up, going in this tank let me block out the external negative stimuli and really focus on what was important to me
That brainstorming session was incredibly productive.
