Sensory Deprivation Tank in Denver, Colorado
We invite you to step into your own private float suite equipped with a private shower, audio-equipped sensory deprivation tank and an area to dress/undress. There you will have the freedom and privacy to fully release all of your stress. In the float suite, you will find a shower, towels, earplugs, and anything else you may need for your float. After showering off and securely placing your earplugs you will step into your float to experience true R.E.S.T.
R.E.S.T. is Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy. The water is super-saturated with 1000-1,200 pounds of Epsom salt to create a weightless environment. The water is so dense that someone can float on top of it; which effectively removes the constant physical stress of gravity on the bones and feeds the muscles a natural relaxant in the form of magnesium. The water and air temperature are the same to ensure that you will lose track of where the water stops and the air begins. This is truly one of a kind therapy to give the brain and body a break from Light, Sound, Touch, and Gravity.
What is Floating In A Sensory Deprivation Tank?
Inside the float tank, eight hundred pounds of pharmaceutical-grade Epsom salt is dissolved in ten inches of water warmed to skin temperature. Like the Dead Sea, this extremely dense solution enables people of all body types to float effortlessly.
The float tank is dark and quiet, greatly reducing sensory stimulation. This unique environment frees the brain from the bulk of its processing duties and prompts the production of theta waves. The nearly universal response to floating is one of profound relaxation and a sense of well-being, even joy.
Where did sensory deprivation tanks originate?
Invented in the mid-1950s by neuroscientist Dr. John Lilly, floatation therapy tanks were originally named “sensory deprivation tanks,” and sometimes “isolation tanks.” Over several years, the name was changed to float tanks or floatation therapy tanks. Though floating was originally invented in the United States, it has also grown quickly over the past two decades in Europe. You can now easily find a float tank around the world.
