Float Your Way to Deep Relaxation, Stress Relief, and Mental Clarity



What Is a Sensory Deprivation Tank?


A sensory deprivation tank—also called a floatation tank or isolation pod—is a specially designed space that removes external sensory input. You float effortlessly in skin-temperature water infused with Epsom salt, creating zero gravity for your body and complete stillness for your mind.


At Flotstone Spa in Lake Bluff, IL, we’ve perfected this experience to combine science-backed wellness with luxury comfort, serving both Chicago and the North Shore.



Why People Choose Sensory Deprivation Tank Therapy


1. Deep Stress Relief

Floating reduces cortisol levels and activates the parasympathetic nervous system, bringing your body into a state of calm.


2. Pain Management & Recovery

Zero-gravity floating helps reduce muscle tension, joint pain, and inflammation—making it ideal for athletes and those with chronic conditions.


3. Improved Sleep

Regular float sessions can help reset your sleep cycle, leading to deeper, more restorative rest.


4. Mental Clarity & Creativity

By quieting the mind, sensory deprivation tanks encourage theta brainwaves—boosting problem-solving, creativity, and focus.
