How does floatation therapy help to relieve migraines?


Float therapy enhances deep relaxation and provides many physical and mental benefits. Studies suggest that during this state of supreme relaxation, the body stimulates the release of endorphins, that act as painkillers. As muscles relax, blood flow increases countering blood vessel constriction, and the body's natural healing capability is evoked. With all these happening, the body will slowly recalibrate its chemicals and metabolic levels, decreasing the chance of imbalances and stress that may lead to a migraine attack.
