Tao Garden Health Resort introduces:
Floatation Tank for Relaxation, Health Therapy and Enlightenment

Deep Relaxation

An idea developed in the 1960’ies by consciousness pioneers such as Dr. John Lilly, has matured in this perfectly designed Floatation Shell from Germany. Originally conceived by the Space Agency Nasa to mimic the state of zero gravitation, Dr. Lily and his colleages started the use of Floatation Tank to more easily reach higher states of consciousness The experience of floating in the water reminds of our stay in the womb, where perfect shelter from the outside world, combined with a perfect match of fluidity and temperature kept us in a blissful state all the time. Once more this experience is brought to you in Tao Garden.



Float for 45 minutes to one hour or more in water containing enough Epsom Salt to render you weightless, and brought to skin temperature to make you feel one with the water. Like being in the womb of your mother surrender to the Oceanic Bliss of full relaxation and travel in the realm of your own mind. Once you are lying in the water and feel ready, just press the button and the cover of the Floatation Shell will come down; then leave behind the outside world for a while and surrender yourself to the floating experience.  

Once the Shell has closed, you have entered another world. Take off on a dream and let the twinkling star-lights and the special music guide you into the world of the Great Relax, or push the buttons to turn them off and take a dive into the world of Sensory Deprivation. With no sense data to excite your senses, the first hurdle to deep meditation has been taken: to cut off distraction from outside.

The flotation tank looks like a very large clam shell. Originally conceived by the Space Agency Nasa to mimic the state of zero gravitation, some 40 years ago scientists started the use of Floatation Tanks to more easily reach higher states of consciousness The experience of floating in the water reminds of our stay in the womb, where perfect shelter from the outside world, combined with a perfect match of fluidity and temperature kept us in a blissful state all the time.
It is recognized for its great healing for the mind. A physical therapist is always on hand to assist through the treatment.

Floating on Epsom salt

  • Improves heart and circulatory health, reducing irregular heartbeats, preventing hardening of the arteries, reducing blood clots and lowering blood pressure.
  • Improves the body's ability to use insulin , reducing the incidence or severity of diabetes.
  • Flushes toxins and heavy metals from the cells, easing muscle pain and helping the body to eliminate harmful substances.
  • Improves nerve function by regulating electrolytes. Also, calcium is the main conductor for electrical current in the body, and magnesium is necessary to maintain proper calcium levels in the blood.
  • Relieves stress. Excess adrenaline and stress are believed to drain magnesium, a natural stress reliever, from the body. Magnesium is necessary for the body to bind adequate amounts of serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain that creates a feeling of well being and relaxation.
  • Epsom Salt also delivers sulfates , which are extremely difficult to get through food but which readily absorb through the skin.
  • Sulfates serve a wide variety of functions in the body, playing a vital role in the formation of brain tissue, joint proteins and the mucin proteins that line the walls of the digestive tract.
  • Sulfates also stimulate the pancreas to generate digestive enzymes and are believed to help detoxify the body's residue of medicines and environmental contaminants.
