Flotation Experience

Over 500kg of Epsom salts are added to the i-sopod floatation tank and mixed with 1,000 litres of water. This creates a highly buoyant environment in which people will naturally float to the surface without any effort. Floating in this way allows the user to escape the forces of gravity, relaxing the muscles and releasing tension.

With the light switched off and an absence of any sound there is no external stimulus for the brain to focus on. It is then quite natural to slip into a deeply relaxed mental state.

As well as being pleasant and enjoyable, it is where we are able to rest and regenerate our physical and mental functions. A session of floatation in the i-sopod will typically lead to an enhanced sense of wellbeing and improved physiological functioning as the combination of both deep mental and physical relaxation provides a host of benefits for the user.

After each session the pod initiates its cleaning cycle. The total contents of the pod are displaced 3.75 times by the industrial strength pump through the 1 micron filter, ensuring that the environment is totally free from any detritus. The titanium-encased heater keeps the water at a constant skin temperature and the automatic disinfecting makes sure that no bacteria or pathogens can survive.
