Stressed Out? Here’s Why Floating at Soak Box is the Reset You Need
Ever feel like your brain just won’t shut off? Like your body is stuck in stress mode no matter how many deep breaths you take? We get it. Life moves fast, and sometimes, your nervous system doesn’t get the memo that it’s okay to relax. That’s where floating comes in—a simple, science-backed way to reset, recharge, and actually feel calm again.
At Soak Box in Wilsonville, we help people like you ditch the stress and find deep relaxation through sensory deprivation float therapy. If you’ve never tried it, here’s why you need to.
What Happens When You Float?
Floating isn’t just about lying in warm water—it’s about giving your mind and body a break from the constant input of everyday life.
When you step into a private float pod, a few key things happen:
Your body becomes weightless – No pressure, no gravity pulling on you, just effortless floating.
Your brain slows down – Without noise, light, or distractions, your nervous system finally shifts out of stress mode.
Magnesium works its magic – The water is packed with Epsom salt, which helps relax muscles, ease tension, and promote better sleep.
Your cortisol levels drop – Floating has been shown to reduce stress hormones, leaving you in a state of deep calm.
Most people come out of their first session saying, “I had no idea how much I needed that.”
Why Floating is the Ultimate Nervous System Reset
We all know that stress takes a toll on our bodies, but did you know that your nervous system physically holds onto it? When you’re constantly in fight-or-flight mode, it can lead to:
✔️ Poor sleep
✔️ Anxiety & burnout
✔️ Tight muscles & chronic pain
✔️ Brain fog & trouble focusing
Floating helps reverse this cycle by activating the parasympathetic nervous system—aka, the part of your body responsible for deep rest and recovery.
The Benefits of Floating
What does all this mean for you? After floating, you can expect:
✅ Less stress & anxiety – Feel calmer, more grounded, and more present.
✅ Better sleep – Many people report sleeping deeper and waking up refreshed.
✅ Pain relief – Perfect for sore muscles, tension headaches, and chronic pain.
✅ Sharper focus & creativity – Step out of the pod with a clearer, more relaxed mind.
✅ Emotional balance – Floating can boost serotonin and dopamine, leaving you in a better mood.
And the best part? The effects build over time. One float is great, but regular sessions help you stay in a balanced, stress-free state for longer.
