Beneficial effects of treatment with sensory isolation in flotation-tank as a preventive health-care intervention – a randomized controlled pilot trial

Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy for your Mind • Body • Spirit • Focus

Wow, that’s a long title. That happens sometimes with scientific papers. This from the National Center for Biotechnology Information’s website. I’ll include a quote from the results: “Stress, depression, anxiety, and worst pain were significantly decreased whereas optimism and sleep quality significantly increased for the flotation-REST group. No significant results for the control group were seen. There was also a significant correlation between mindfulness in daily life and degree of altered states of consciousness during the relaxation in the flotation tank.”
I pulled the art from a Calgary Herald article.
