Float Therapy and Pregnancy: Float therapy is a large enclosed bathtub designed to reduce distractions: lights, sounds, gravity, and tactile sensations. The water is heated to skin temperature and is filled with 1000 pounds of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate), making it denser than even the Dead Sea. You will find yourself floating effortlessly and losing track of where your body ends and where your body begins. As you lie in a float tank, about 90% of neuromuscular activity is decreased. Cortisol levels drop significantly, blood pressure lowers and a deep sense of relaxation starts to take over your body. Whether you are trying to get pregnant, pregnant or recently had your little one delivered, floating will help lower stress by unwinding your mind and body as it goes through this very transformative time. Floating during pregnancy also helps promote excellent sleep patterns, alleviates spine and back pain, reduces swelling & inflammation, helps your baby get into position around the 36th week of pregnancy and gives you the chance to experience a deeper bond and connection with your child.
Vitality Float Spa offers 60 and 90-minute float sessions. A pool noodle is offered during the 2nd and 3rd trimester, so you can lie on your stomach or side for comfort while you are floating. The more often you float during pregnancy the more benefits you will notice.
