Have you heard about one of the best kept industry secrets?
Floatation therapy is the latest beauty weapon!
Often when you hear about the benefits of floatation therapy, you’re told about its effects on your mind as a relaxation tool. Often the benefits that it has on your physical appearance is often overlooked.
The high concentration of Magnesium in our float pods that gets absorbed through your skin can do wonders for your beauty routine. Magnesium is a vital mineral, which is proven to be most effective when absorbed through the skin, as opposed to being digested. This makes floatation therapy the ideal way to get your regular dose.
Epsom salts, or Magnesium sulphate, even acts as a natural facial and all over body cleanser. Just by soaking in the highly concentrated water, you should notice less acne, blackheads and the re-hydration of skin cells, whereby reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Magnesium also acts as a natural exfoliator, which means that you are gently removing dead skin layer effortlessly, just while you glide into R.E.S.T. (restricted environmental stimulation therapy). With regular sessions, these improvements will become more amplified.
Another benefit of regular floatation therapy and exfoliation is a reduction in the appearance of cellulite. Floatation Therapy helps to improve your blood circulation and relaxes your muscles, which in turn can make cellulite less noticeable on the top layers of your skin.
