Floatation-RESTClinical research investigating Floatation-REST, although limited, has reported largely beneficial effects across a range of different stress- and pain-related conditions, including: hypertension, chronic tension headaches, chronic muscle tension pain in the back and neck, and stress-related pain with burnout depression. There have also been several studies focused on individuals with clinical anxiety, including generalized anxiety disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anorexia nervosa, panic disorder, agoraphobia, and social anxiety disorder, with many of these patients also presenting with comorbid major depressive disorder. The evidence published thus far suggests that Floatation-REST is a safe technique for rapidly reducing levels of stress, pain, and anxiety. |

A deeper understanding of the neurophysiological processes underpinning floating’s anxiolytic effect could have important clinical implications.Specifically related to cardiovascular changes that occur as the result of Floatation-REST, several studies have reported significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure when comparing measurements taken before and after a float session |
