During and after floating, Oasis Relaxation Systems users report a tranquil, carefree, super-relaxed feeling, a light, happy exuberance, attended by deep calmness, and a sense of wholeness. Floating enhances recovery from illness and pain, and decreases muscle tension. It has been used to control compulsive behaviors such as smoking, drinking and overeating. By combining floating with the use of learning tapes, one creates an ideal environment for advanced learning. The effects of total relaxation should not be overlooked.
Most people never experience true relaxation.
During a session, the body is completely suspended similar to zero gravity. Therefore, total muscle relaxation is possible. This promotes a sense of health and well-being that can remain for several days, at a minimum, and certainly long beyond. We would like to point out that this is merely a thumbnail sketch of the wide number of benefits available. We would refer anyone wishing to know more to The Book of Floating by Michael Hutchison.
