Floatation Therapy comes to Doncaster

DONCASTER, U.K. - Aug. 30, 2021 - PRLog -- Doncaster is set to be home to South Yorkshire's  first ever Floatation Tank Centre.
Based in Thorne, Float Space is opening it's doors early September and is set to attract hundreds of customers from throughout the region and beyond.
A family operation, Pete Sullivan stated that 'Floatation and wellness in general should be something more people start to take seriously.'  'Floating offers a release from high cortisol levels that are rampant thanks to constant advertising and people using technology all day long.'

Pete Sullivan added his own discovery story.
'I found floatation tanks when looking into ways to help relax, de-stress and achieve some of the benefits usually associated only with meditation.  Float tanks help me reach that inner peace, a calm that allows me to fully switch off from the world and recharge.

Float tank therapy is a sensory deprivation tank that consists of water and almost 800 pounds of magnesium sulfate and Epsom salts. These salts help in the promotion of floating inside the tank. The concentration of these salts is usually higher to keep the person afloat in the water. In the float tank, a person tends to stay afloat and awake yet relaxed.

The atmosphere and temperature around these tanks are usually about skin temperature. At the same time, the room is soundproof and dark to induce relaxation. These tanks help in decreasing the sensory states of the external environment.

In isolation pods or float tanks, an individual tends to float free of gravity. In this state, your blood vessels tend to stay dilated. The dilatation of the blood vessels helps in immediate relief from hypertension and smooth blood flow through them. Floatation tank therapy maximizes the supply of oxygen, blood cells, and nutrients to the body cells. Float tank therapy is a great way to balance blood pressure.
