Pain Relief

"All 27 respondents had received treatments other than those from this pain program: 81% had used pain medications; 56% had had some form of pain injections; 70% had received physical therapy; 59% had received chiropractic treatment; 22% had undergone surgery. These patients reported more short-term and long-term pain relief from flotation than from the other therapeutic modalities."

If you wonder what floating offers in the way of pain relief, consider these testimonials. Be sure to see even more testimonials on our Customer page.

"A few months ago, I fractured my upper back, and along with it I had severe muscle spasms and tension. After a month of being on Vicodon and other medication, with no signs of improvement, my brother informed me about this 'amazing experience' that relieved his stress and pains. I visited Aguasal soon after, mainly because my back was hurting severely, and I was worried it was getting worse.

After floating for what seemed like 10 minutes (actually more than an hour), I crawled out of the tub, feeling very little pain. After the float session, my fractured bone ached slightly, but all the back muscles that had been spasming were very loose and surprisingly pain-free.

I'm almost positive that if I floated regularly while my back was still broken, the healing process would have been 10 times faster. My floating experience was very positive and hopeful. I will definitely be
visiting Aguasal next time my body needs some help." - Ryan Sherman

"I had soreness in my neck & shoulder area for several months. I've gone to a naprapath, a chiropractor, and have had massages, but the tightness continued.

I came to the floatation center and boy am I glad I did. I must have dozed off in the float tank, because before I knew it, I heard the music, signalling me that the hour had passed. I couldn't believe how relaxed I was. But what was unusual was that I wasn't groggy or tired in the least. I felt relaxed and peaceful. I noticed the soreness in my shoulder was almost completely gone." -Mary

"My boyfriend Herb and I wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic experience at your floatation center recently.  We both suffer from lower back pain and live stressful and demanding lives. The combination of the floating and massage is just what we needed to feel whole again.  I did not realize how much the pain I was living with was affecting me physically and mentally. The relief for both of us was instantaneous. Thanks to you we now have a place to go to relax and reenergize. You truly hold the prescription for immediate relaxation and pain relief." - Tracye D. Hinton

"I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis eight years ago. I cope with stiff, sore muscles and fatigue. After floating for the first time, I purchased a monthly float pass for unlimited float sessions. It was a wonderful month. For me, floating was not only a stress reliever and relaxing escape, it was also therapeutic. During my month, I visited Aguasal two to three times per week. My muscles were able to fully relax and release. My chronic aches and pains were lessened, and my skin glowed. Many people commented on how healthy and rested I looked. Even my chiropractor was impressed at how relaxed my neck and shoulder muscles were. In my opinion, saltwater floatation is an invaluable therapy." -Ann Berg

"From the perspective of pain relief alone, you offer a far better tool than any I have ever been exposed to."  - Christopher Olesch
 
"After being referred to Aguasal for a painful lower back, I was welcomed with no appointment at a moments notice.  I have never been in a place that caters to an individual's every need, with the ultimate in professionalism. In regards to my back pain, I arrived with difficulty standing up and walked out so relaxed and un-stressed I almost forgot the discomfort I came with!" -Michael Chesler
 

"I've tried several different therapies to find some relief from the pain associated with fibromyalgia. I've tried acupuncture, massage therapy, medicines and biofeedback. I found more relief from the pain and exhaustion in 1 hour of floating than any of the other therapies I've tried. I got the best sleep I've gotten in YEARS after floating! I felt the effects of floating lasted for several days afterward. I slept better and more deeply, I had more energy, and I had less pain."  - Kami Hartig 
 
"I suffer from a disease that is rare for a man. Fibromyalgia is normally found in women. It's a muscle disorder and at times it is debilitating. I have found products to help, but sometimes when the stress is overwhelming it seems as though nothing helps. Then I was introduced to the floatation center, Aguasal and after a 1 hour session I felt totally tension free. With the tension and stress gone so were the aches and pains from the fibromyalgia. I took another session about 4 days later and felt so at ease I went to sleep. What else is amazing is that I am also claustrophobic, but felt no closed-in feeling despite the size of the tanks. I will continue to use Aguasal along with the other products I've found because they work so well together." - Mike Newby
 
"I have a condition with my hip where there's a pinched nerve and it makes my quadricep a little numb from time to time. I came in and did a 1 hour float and at the end of the float I noticed that I could actually feel the quadricep a little more than I had been able to prior to the float. It turns out that the pressure on the nerve had been released and it stayed that way for a good couple of weeks afterward." - Greg Williams

"...numerous studies, including one from the National Institutes of Mental Health show float sessions can help treat hypertension and reduce stress related hormones..."
