Float Sixty was originally planning on opening on Michigan Avenue and we first posted about that back in 2016. It's been a long journey to open the store in the Sloop, but we're certainly intrigued by the therapy. The website states:
Getting rid of all sensory input allows the ‘constantly-make-sure-you’re-not-dying’ part of your brain to chill out for a second, allowing the creative, relaxed part of your brain to come out and play. Without the constant pressure of analyzing the world around you, your body lowers its levels of cortisol, the main chemical component of stress. Your brain also releases elevated levels of dopamine and endorphins, the neurotransmitters of happiness.The site goes on to list a wide range of benefits ranging from increased immune function to "super-learning".
Anyway, we hope to try it out someday. In the meantime, anyone been yet? If so, please share your response.
