I’d really like to have an isolation tank but do not want to shell out $10K. Where can I get my hands on some designs to build one myself? Any ideas?

To the previous person who posted – you can find a more up-to-date US directory at http://www.wheretofloat.com. FYI, there is a float center near Indianapolis!

For all of you that say you would like to float, if you go to: http://www.floatation.com/wheretofloat.html it will allow you to hopefully find a facility near you. Unfortunately these facilities are not very common as I do not have one near in Indiana where I live. We used to have one very near by, but it has shut down 6 months ago for unknown reasons. Anyway for anyone looking to float that website should help.

Yes, the movie was called Altered States. I saw it many years ago but ever sicne I’ve always wanted to experience and Isolation Tank, maybe even build one for myself. Sadly, I’ve never had the chance.!

I have wanted to try a float/isolation tank but haven’t found one in my area. I wonder if you could build one or if there are building plans on the net. have tried Centerpointe Holosync – have you heard of or tried this before?
Thanks, Tom

I’ve floated twice – loved it both times – can only say that you do not feel your body after a while, and you come out of it very relaxed and refreshed…great before a massage, if you can find a masseuse with one.

Hi Vern, I too have always wanted to experience one of these tanks. Maybe with your prompting now I will seek it out and do it. I think I can probably find one somewhere in Vegas. If not somewhere in Phoenix I bet… Happy Floating!

I’ve floated 100s of times since 2001 when I discovered that floating eliminated my debilitating back pain and gave me my life back. Since then, I float for stress relief, meditation, creativity and brainstorming.

Achieving the theta brainwave state is easy in a floatation tank (it usually takes 35-45 minutes) and when you’re in that state, deep meditation becomes effortless. I’ve tried meditation several times and have been frustrated in my efforts to quiet my mind, but in the floatation tank, it’s so easy as to seem like cheating. Instead of meditating to change my brainwaves. I can float to change my brainwaves and this facilitates effortless meditation.

I’ve had several interesting experiences while in this deep meditative state, but my goal in posting here isn’t to bring attention to myself but to encourage people to give the floatation tank a try. You can learn more about floating at floatforhealth.net
