A sensory deprivation tank, also known as a float tank, is a dark, soundproof tank filled with saltwater. The water is warmed to skin temperature and saturated with Epsom salt.

This therapy is popular among those seeking stress relief and mental clarity. Curious about its benefits? Let's clear up some misconceptions first.
