Forskning bag floatingterapi
Floating, floatation, sensory deprivation, REST (Restricted Environmental Stimulus Therapy)
Floating har vist sig at have beviselige gavnlige effekter på menneskets hjerne. Siden opfindelsen af floatingterapi i 1950’erne har en langt række videnskabelige studier fra uafhængige universiteter og forskningsinstitutioner undersøgt effekten og dens potentielle fordele på menneskets krop og hjerne.
Floating i andre lande har vundet stor anerkendelse. I Sverige er floatingterapi godkendt som en alternativ behandlingsform mod stress, angst og depression. Derudover har floating vundet indpas i blandt andet Canada, New Zealand USA, Tyskland og England.
