Based on a revolutionary science called Restricted Environmental Stimulation Technique (REST), the floatation tank is now used as an ultimate therapy solution.

The floatation tank was first developed by John C. Lilly in the 1950’s, a medical practitioner and neuro-psychiatrist. He used it in order to test the effects of sensory deprivation during his training in psychoanalysis at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in Washington.

The remarkable effects of the float tank has been systemically studies, researched and endorsed at over 100 universities, hospitals, sports training centres around the world. Floatation therapy is now used for meditation, relaxation, stress reduction, pain relief, injury recovery, accelerated healing, performance enhancement, and pregnancy relief and in natural alternative to some medicines.
