Item Description

Thank you for your interest in our float center. We are a float spa in Portland, Maine. Looking for a new experience? Try the ultimate tool for relaxation. Our sensory deprivation tanks will help you to relax your muscles and clear your mind. If you experience chronic pain, enjoy meditation, feel overwhelmed by sensory over load, are looking for that competitive edge, or just want to relax, then treat yourself to a session in one of our float pods or our float room!

Gravity Reduction

Resting in a float spa greatly reduces the force of gravity on the body. Reduced gravity eases pressure on joints and muscles. Energy is reserved when we spend less time resisting the forces of gravity, our bodies can then use this surplus of energy in expediting healing processes.

Gravity reduction can aid in the treatment of many medical conditions including:

Arthritis
Scoliosis
Fibromyalgia

Sensory Reduction

Today’s fast paced society bombards our lives with nearly constant stimulation, leaving us physically overwhelmed and exhausted. The body's “fight or flight” response is essentially continuously firing. Floating dampens the senses and this allows us to turn off these automatic responses to constant stimuli. The body and mind are able to completely relax and decompress. This true relaxation can have a hugely positive impact on stress-related disorders and can aid in mental processes.

Magnesium Sulfate - Epsom Salt

Magnesium Sulfate is a chemical compound comprised of magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen. It has hundreds of uses throughout the body, including regulation of cell-signaling pathways. Over three hundred enzymes in the body require magnesium for various cellular functions. An estimated sixty-eight percent of American adults are magnesium deficient. Magnesium sulfate can be ingested as a dietary supplement, though it is most efficient and effective when absorbed through the skin, such as during floatation therapy.

Magnesium helps to:

Regulate and catalyze production of over three hundred enzymes
Facilitate calcium absorption
Shorten duration of migraine symptoms
Lessen the symptoms of PMS

and helps to prevent:

Diabetes
Asthma
Osteoporosis
Stroke
Heart Attack
