About Zero Gravity Dry Float Therapy

There have been many scientific research studies over the years that have proven the benefits of floatation therapy in the support of pain management, mental relaxation, meditative enlightenment, addiction cessations and many other human debilitating conditions. Researchers and float tank users report many different beneficial effects from floatation, from general well-being through to mental and physical benefits.

However, there are health conditions that make it more challenging for some to float absorbed in a wet Epsom salt floatation tank.

The Zero Gravity Dry Float system provides the same buoyancy effect as the wet except you are kept dry by the protective membrane between you and the water beneath.

water inside the bed is regulated as close to human skin temperature to protect the user from the sensation of being overly hot or cold during the session and unlike the wet float, you remain fully clothed during your session.  There is a platform built into the bed to help you get settled and into a good position and when ready the simple touch of a button, the platform falls away, to create the weightlessness whilst comfortably supported by a waterproof membrane which offers the user with a cocooned warm embrace throughout your session.

Your session can be tailored to have the soothing effects of chromotherapy throughout the session or you can choose to have them switched off. You are also provided with an eye mask and headphones playing healing frequency during your session. Some users prefer to bring their own device and follow a medication track they are familiar with.

How does Zero Gravity Dry Floating work?

As you sink into your dry floatation session, you’ll start to feel the zero-gravity effect of weightlessness ease the aches and pains from your body. Releasing the gravity pressure from your body along with the removal of external sensory stimulants will help your mind relax and enter into a deep state of relaxation. Similar to that of a wet float, around 30-40minutes into the session you may find you lose all sense of time and space as your brain waves move into a theta state similar to deep meditation or a conscious dream like state.

Zero Gravity Dry Floatation has been found to benefit in helping you feel refreshed and replenished, very different from what you would feel if you’d taken a 30 or 60minute nap. Frequent dry floaters report the benefit of reduced stress, the elevated feelings of waking from a fantastic deep power nap, reduced pain on the body and results in a good night sleep. 

Most of us find chronic stress issues that impact us in our day to day lives. They creep up and are completely unexpected ignoring these early warning signs can have serious consequences for the body. Some of these symptoms present as tiredness, lack of focus, aches and pains and athletic recovery. Regular dry floatation sessions help reduce these stressors and therefore provides a beneficial tool in helping you restore Wellness.

Once you’ve purchased and booked your first session with us, you’ll receive an automatic confirmation email with a link to the dry floatation disclaimer. You can save time on the day of your session and complete this ahead of time or complete it once you arrive at the center.  Please arrive 10minutes prior to your session to allow time for onboarding and to settle in. Your Wellness associate will accompany you to your dry float bed and get you set up, explaining the process to help you get the most out of your experience. 

We recommend you wear light, loose clothing without zippers or pockets to avoid damage to the membrane. We can provide you with a light Turkish towel or warmer covering to help you relax into the session and feel at ease in the space.

Once the session has come to an end make your way to the Restoration Lounge and enjoy a refreshing glass of reverse-osmosis water or choose from a selection of herbal teas. 

Simply sit back, relax and reflect on your renewed energy and ready to take on the world.
