The Benefits of Floating: Beyond Relaxation

The benefits of flotation therapy extend far beyond the immediate sensation of relaxation. Clients of Soulex have reported astonishing physical rehabilitation benefits, making it an efficient choice for those looking to recover faster after injury or intensive physical activities.
Accelerate Physical Rehabilitation
Floating at Soulex isn’t just about relaxing; it’s about fostering healing. The nurturing environment of the float pod provides the body with an optimal condition to expedite the healing process. Clients suffering from back and neck pain, sprained joints, or recovering from broken bones have all reported significant relief after float therapy sessions.
Enhance Athletic Training
For athletes, flotation therapy can aid recovery and enhance performance. The post-training recovery is hastened as floating helps reduce lactic acid production, leading to less muscle cramps and fatigue. Furthermore, the distraction-free environment inside the float pod is the perfect space for visualization exercises to build muscle memory and efficiency. Regular float sessions can also help prevent injuries, ensuring optimal physical and mental relaxation.
Alleviate Emotional Pain
Soulex’s flotation therapy is not only effective for physical pain but also provides significant relief from emotional pain. In the tranquil environment of the float pod, clients are free to work through traumatic or painful memories in a calm and safe space. The sensory-deprived environment also assists in breaking the cycle of stress hormones production, promoting emotional healing and resilience.
Boost Immunity & Vitality
Floating is a revitalizing experience for the body. As the stress and tension are unwound, the body is free to boost its immunity. This leads to better overall health and a lower likelihood of falling ill.

Find Relief from Medical Conditions
Clients suffering from various medical conditions such as Fibromyalgia, high blood pressure, arthritis, and scoliosis have found relief from regular float sessions. The gravity-free environment inside the float pod allows the body to focus on healing, alleviating symptoms and improving quality of life.
Stress Relief & Wellness
At Soulex, they believe that flotation therapy is a powerful tool for stress-relief. Floating helps access deep senses of peace and calm, creating a buffer against the stress and strains of life. The water in their pods is heated to the ideal temperature and saturated with over 1000 pounds of pharmaceutical-grade Epsom salt, creating the perfect environment for floating and facilitating the ultimate relaxation experience.
The First Float: What to Expect?

Embarking on the first float therapy session can feel daunting, but Soulex has every detail sorted to make the process as comforting as possible. From a private room equipped with all necessities to a choice of silence, music, lights, and/or aromatherapy during the float, Soulex ensures the first float experience is nothing short of remarkable.
Relax and Let Go
Soulex encourages clients to release any expectations prior to a float and simply enjoy the experience. Various relaxation techniques can be used during the float, such as focusing on the rhythm of your breathing or repeating a mantra.
Be Still
Floating can also help cultivate a sense of holistic stillness. By focusing on your breath or repeating a mantra, you can achieve a state of profound relaxation and timelessness.
Optimal Float Position
While the position is a personal choice, Soulex recommends two positions for optimal comfort. The first position is with your arms at your side, palms down. The second position involves placing your arms over-head with your palms up.
