Float Tank

Pregnant women may use float tanks in their second and third trimesters (with clearance from their doctors). Thanks to the almost zero-gravity experience, pregnant women and new moms can find relief from the added weight of pregnancy - including the added weight of your milk production. 

BENEFITS OF FLOAT THERAPY FOR PREGNANCY: 

• RELAXATION: The weightless environment can help relieve stress and promote deep relaxation. 
• PAIN RELIEF: Floating can help with aches and pains like back pain, joint pain, and muscle tension. 
• IMPROVED CIRCULATION: Floating can enhance blood circulation, which can help reduce swelling. 
• BONDING: The sensory isolation and weightless environment can create a unique bonding experience with your developing baby. 

BENEFITS OF FLOAT THERAPY FOR BREASTFEEDING: 

• SLEEP: Floatation therapy can help increase sleep time and boost sleep quality. 
• STRESS: Stress is often the number one culprit of reduced breast milk supply. 
• MAGNESIUM: Floatation therapy can help you absorb magnesium, which is beneficial to breastfeeding. 

HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOR FLOATATION THERAPY DURING PREGNANCY AND BREASTFEEDING:

• It is recommended to feed or pump before your float.
• Try belly floating instead of laying on your back, or try turning on your side.
• Practice conscious, slow breathing to decrease stress and relax into the float.
