HOW TO POSITION YOURSELF WHILE FLOATING

At Inner Outer Health, we like to ensure your floatation tank experience is the best it can be.  To accomplish this, when you come in for your first float, a staff member will be happy to go through a number of techniques and tips with you as to where you can position your hands and arms.

Your hand and arm positioning can help with comfort and relaxation, but also to provide ultimate stretching and tension relief.  Some of the tips we provide you with, have been described below.  When you come in for your next float, ask your therapist at Inner Outer Health for a demonstration if you are unclear on the descriptions below.

BY YOUR SIDE
While floating, try resting your hands by your sides, either touching the sides of your body or floating nearby. To read more click here.











ON YOUR STOMACH
You can place your hands on your stomach.  You can either keep both hands on your stomach while your fingertips are touching, or sit one hand on top of the other. To read more click here.

BEHIND YOUR HEAD
Rest your neck and head by placing your arms upward, keeping your hands underneath your head for support.  Let your head fall into your arms, which will be supported by the buoyant water. To read more click here.











BEHIND YOUR BACK
Join your hands behind your back near your buttocks, either keeping your palms open, facing and touching each other, or by interlocking your fingers.  Stretch by pulling your shoulders back.

OUTSTRETCHED TO YOUR SIDES

THE MERMAID

THE SCARECROW

SITTING
The floatation tank room is your own space.  If you are feeling uncomfortable, or prefer to sit up for a portion of your experience, this is okay.  To read more click here.

HANDS AND FEET
While floating on your back, try stretching your wrists and ankles by moving them in circular motions.

PILLOW
Our float rooms include a neck pillow for your use and comfort.  We suggest that you float without it initially and encourage you to let your head fall back allowing the dense water to lift it for you.

While you are free to do whatever you feel like during your time in the floatation tank, trying some of these positions may be very helpful in achieving a deeper state. Whether you want to lay completely still, or move your body around, there are plenty of options to improve your floatation experience. Give them a go today.
