No gravity, no touch, no sound, and no sight.

The buoyancy puts your body into what is essentially a zero-gravity environment: your muscles and bones get to relax, your joints and spine decompress, and the strain on your circulatory system is greatly reduced.  It’s basically like your entire body breathing a sigh of relief.

With no external stimuli coming in, your system stops worrying about all the background tasks that usually keep it occupied—mostly related to not dying. Your fight-or-flight response gets a chance to kick back and stop bossing your brain around, lowering your production of adrenaline and cortisol. Instead, studies show signs that your dopamine and endorphin levels rise, giving you a natural mood high which often lasts for days. 

Floating helps to release deep muscular tension, this starts a chain reaction that spreads through the body to every organ, tissue and cell. Blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tension and oxygen consumption (cell metabolism) are reduced to healthy levels. Harmful stress related hormones such as cortisol are reduced in the blood stream, enhancing emotional well being. The level of T-cells rises in the blood stream, strengthening the immune system. The brain releases a large amount of endorphins as it relaxes deeply into the theta state, relieving fatigue and chronic pain.
