We strongly recommend float therapy to relieve the stress of modern life. There’s no relaxation more profound than the relaxation you feel floating in a sensory deprivation tank.

Is Float Therapy Sanitary?

Fibromyalgia Awareness
May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month. Sometimes awareness months are just gimmicks. But in the case of fibromyalgia, having an awareness month could help to shed light on a widely misunderstood condition. Nobody has been able to pin down the cause of it, and although it affects about 2% of the adult population, there are still Read more…
Float Therapy for Muscle Recovery
In this blog, I have suggested a lot of uses for floating. They include weight control, managing PTSD, increasing creativity, reducing stress, and improving sleep quality, to name a few. But I haven’t yet gotten around to writing about its most spectacular success. So this week, we’ll look at float therapy for muscle recovery. And we Read more…
Float Therapy for Fibromyalgia
Should you try float therapy for fibromyalgia? In my opinion, you should. There’s good evidence from the world of research to back that opinion up.

Float Pod for Fibromyalgia
The float pod is the best stress buster I know. If you have stress or even anxiety (and who doesn’t?), float pod can relax you. It can even help to put your troubles in perspective. But did you know it can help with specific medical conditions, too? Take fibromyalgia. Can float pod be a help Read more…
Float Pod for Sleep
I have a confession to make. When I use the float pod here at Peak, I invariably fall asleep in it. I know I am supposed to use floating to solve tough problems or get creative insights. But when I pull the lid down and lie back in the skin-temperature water, I find it difficult Read more…
