A 2022 Frontiers in Neuroscience study found that a single float session significantly reduced both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in participants, especially those with anxiety or stress related hypertension.
๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐:
โข Stress reduction: Float therapy lowers cortisol and adrenaline, calming the โfight or flightโ response that spikes blood pressure
โข Parasympathetic activation: This slows heart rate and dilates blood vessels, helping lower blood pressure
โข Sympathetic nervous system reduction: Limiting sensory input reduces sympathetic overactivity, common in hypertension
โข Improved circulation: Buoyancy reduces muscle tension and joint pressure, enhancing blood flow

High blood pressure increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney damage, and vision loss. While float therapy is not a replacement for medical treatment, it can be a natural, side effect free complement to lifestyle changes like reducing sodium, exercising, and losing weight

Beyond blood pressure, float therapy has multiple benefits (way too many to list!). I feel the three top benefits of floating are:
โข Reduce stress, anxiety and depression symptoms
โข Improves sleep quality, which supports cardiovascular health
โข Relieves pain
