@deborah I agree that it would probably be a good idea to be able to see the tank before trying it for the first time. This is something that wouldn't be for everyone, but very beneficial to those that would enjoy it.

Though I've never been in a sensory deprivation tank, I've always wanted to. I've heard about the peace and tranquility associated with them and love the idea, though I do believe that my anxiety would act up if I did actually try it.

@lanajacksoniectskin-com I don't have claustrophobia but i do have anxiety so i completely understand where you're coming from.

@jaydensugickiectskin-com I do agree that it would be freaky to be in an enclosed space like this. But I will say that the tanks water level is never deep enough to drown just because you are unable to swim.

I have tried this, I found a Groupon and thought I would try it.  It is a great concept, and if I could do it more than one time it would be very therapeutic.  I felt like in my experience, it took most of the time for me to get situated in the tank and comfortable with the water in my ears etc.  I would try it again, it's nice to float without trying to float like in a swimming pool.  

@student I personally did not feel claustrophobic, the top of the container was high enough up that I didn't feel closed in.  If I remember correctly, I could move my arms straight out without touching the sides.

@student I didn't know what to expect but it was a great experience.  The quiet is deafening!

I am very curious about floating and have always had an interest in doing it. I am not claustrophobic or anything like that, but it does make me feel a certain way when I think about getting into a small float tank. I have heard that people like having those senses taken way and making them think about life.

@melissalandersiectskin-com That's what I was thinking, that it would be nice to float without trying to float. I think it would be a great experience for me because life is life'n and I would enjoy the total silence.

I would love to try this for the brain effects. Wonder how well it could calm the squirrels. The article sounds like this is definitely worth a try and the experience was greater than expected. 

@melissalandersiectskin-com Good to know! I'll have to check out Groupon for this!

@torimcneilliectskin-com yeah it does kind of feel odd to think about being is such a small tank floating but worth a try!

@laurenjohnsoniectskin-com OH my!!! I constantly think about those movies and how random weird stuff happens. Mostly while driving near a big truck that is hauling something that could fall off.
