​A new, simpler approach to make your next floatation experience even better.​

23/5/2019

0 Comments

 
Inner Outer Health has been servicing the Bellfield community for over 7 years by offering floatation therapy, myotherapy and several different forms of massage ranging from remedial, relaxation and deep tissue massage.
 
We have recently decided to change the way we offer floatation therapy.
 
We have made ALL our float sessions 90 minutes for $99. The reason for this is that we want you to have more time in the float tank to create a profound experience and gain greater value from the experience.
 
We also wanted to make things simple without creating confusion with too many options. Bearing in mind floating is not a one-off experience. Floating in is a learned skill, which requires patience, trust, allowing your-self to surrender to the weightless environment, letting go and with each session going deeper and deeper into a meditative state.
 
We are here to serve you, look after you and create a memorable experience.
 
To create the optimal result, we recommend you float once a week, for 3 to 4 weeks, then you can extend it to every 2 weeks after a few months and gradually get to once a month. Floating is an individual experience and really depends on what you want to get out of it and what the context of your floating is; how much stress and pressure there is in your life.
 
If you have any unused 1-hour gift vouchers, your float session moving forwards will be 90 minutes at no extra cost.
 
Numerous clients have trailed the new 90 minute floats and they noticed:
 
1.    They had more time to reduce, dissolve the mental chatter
2.    They felt more relaxed and able to get into a deep relaxation and meditative state
3.    The session duration was the perfect amount of time
 
To make your next float appointment, you can call us on 9440 9453. Please leave us a message and tell us what 3 time slots you would like in order of preference and we will call you back to confirm your session(s).

We look forward to seeing you again for your next float!

P.S.
We are promoting DOUBLE FLOATS? 2 people floating at the same time in the evenings after 7pm for $99 per person.

5 Things to Avoid Before Your Floatation Tank Session

16/1/2014

0 Comments

 
Floatation Therapy is such a wonderfully relaxing and enjoyable experience… however there are a few things which are best avoided prior to floating to ensure that you CAN relax and enjoy all that the Floatation Tank has to offer you.

Picture
1.  Avoid Stimulants such as Caffeine or Nicotine

Whilst it may be difficult to skip the morning coffee, or to avoid smoking cigarettes, if you can it is best to avoid any stimulants before you float, as this will interfere with your ability to go into a deep relaxation. People who have stimulants such as caffeine before they have a session in the float tank, struggle to mentally relax and experience the deeper states of relaxation that Floatation Therapy offers. Caffeine has a half-life of 2.5-4.5 hours, but depending on how much you have, caffeine metabolism can vary so could be longer in some people.

2.  Avoid Shaving before your Floatation Therapy session

If you must, make sure you allow plenty of time between when you shave and when you float, otherwise you will have to deal with the sting of the super-salty water which can be irritating and distracting  to any open skin for up to around 20 minutes of your float! When shaving your face – wait 6 hours or longer, and when shaving any other part of your body – wait 12 hours or longer. 

Picture
3.     Avoid Colouring your Hair

We love coloured hair – it looks great! Just not so great when it’s in the water inside our Floatation Tanks… In fact, you MUST NOT FLOAT with hair colour that is still washing out when you have a shower. It is a very expensive exercise to clean up the tank and the water inside it if hair colour leaches into the Floatation Tank! If you choose to float with coloured hair, you are responsible for any extra costs associated with cleaning or repairing damage, so it is best avoided! When you have NO colour washing out of your hair, it is safe for you to float.


Picture
4. Avoid Eating Large/Heavy Meals or Skipping Meals

If you eat a heavy/large meal, or if you don’t eat at all, you will be spending a good part of your float listening to the sounds of your digestive system… which can be kind of funny and interesting… but can also be annoying if that’s all you can focus on. It is suggested that you eat a light, easily digestible meal 1.5-2 hours before your float session to satiate your hunger and allow time for digestion.


Picture
5. Avoid Drugs and Alcohol

Whilst you may have come across information about other people deciding to get high before floating, we do NOT condone the use of alcohol or drugs at inner outer health (Floatation Tank Melbourne) – before or during your session! This is for both your and our safety. When you come in for your first float, you will sign a statement that includes your agreement to adhere to this for every session at inner outer health (Floatation Tank Melbourne). If we suspect that you are under the influence of either alcohol or drugs, you may be asked to leave, which would be disappointing for us both. On a lighter note, there is really NO NEED to consume any consciousness-altering substances, because one of the benefits of floating is an all-natural high from those wonderful brain chemicals called ENDORPHINS! These wonderful pain-relieving and feel-good neurotransmitters can leave you with a feeling of increased wellbeing both physically and mentally.

Following the above "5 things to avoid before you float" will help you to have an enjoyable and trouble-free float! If you have floated, and feel that we have missed something from this list, please comment below to share your suggestions!

Floatation Tank - Eye On The Bay Video

1/4/2011

0 Comments

 
It was really ironic, I was surfing the internet to do some research and I stumbled on this YouTube video called Float – Eye on the Bay. I thought you might be interested in it. Check it out!

It’s a floatation centre and art studio. The co-owner Allison Walton was interviewed by Brian Hackney about the benefits of the floatation tank.

When I watched the video of the floatation tank I didn’t really like the look of the tank.  It looked like a chamber. The image below is the floatation tank we will be having at our centre in the next couple of months once the red tape through council is completed and we can start the renovations.

Apollo Floatation tank

With the Apollo floatation tank it is made here in South Australia and exported all over the world.The Australian Institute of Sport uses the Apollo ELV floatation tank. The ApolloTM ELV floatation system has a high level of safety, and is the only floatation tank that satisfies the high European CE standard.
