Dr Justin Feinstein, a researcher at the Laureate Institute for Brain Research in Tulsa, Oklahoma, has released results from his groundbreaking clinical trial of floating in sensory deprivation tanks to relieve symptoms of acute anxiety. In his study of 50 research participants with severe anxiety, he found that in every single participant, very strong reductions in stress and anxiety occurred after just one floatation session! Amazing results.
Floaters were connected to blood pressure, heart and brain monitors while floating, and within minutes of beginning to float they experienced blood pressure drops of 10-15 points. Floaters also reported feelings of peace and serenity which lasted for days after their float. Dr Feinstein explains that what is so amazing about the floatation treatment is that the participants don't have to do anything to experience the benefits of floating - the environment alone is enough to significantly change their mental, physical and emotional states.
Our very own Lena Yammine was lucky enough to hear Dr Feinstein's presentation in person at the 2015 Annual Float Conference. Dr Feinstein has done ongoing research in the floatation field and plans to commence an extended clinical trial examining the effects of regular, ongoing floatation sessions for people suffering from anxiety and panic disorders as well as PTSD.
