Fadeaway is Central Iowa's first and only commercial floatation therapy center. We offer 60 or 90 minute sessions inside Samadhi style sensory deprivation tanks. Floatation therapy has been utilized for more than 60 years and is know to reduce the effects of stress, chronic pain, insomnia, PTSD, anxiety and depression. We believe floating is the cure for the human condition. See our website for more information. Fadeaway also offers infrared sauna therapy, a full menu of Ayurvedic wellness services, and massage therapy. What is a Sensory Deprivation Tank?(aka float tank, sensory deprivation tank, or isolation tank): A tank with 10" of water that has enough Epsom salt mixed in to allow a person to float on the surface. The water is kept at skin-temperature, making it virtually imperceptible. The room is virtually sound-proof and the interior of the tank is pitch-black, creating a place for our bodies to be free from gravity and all stimulation from the outside world.A float tank is not as much an object as it is an environment. An environment with the purpose of acting as a counterbalance to every other interaction we have with the world around us. It is the pursuit of a pure nothingness. A place of rest. It is an environment that allows our bodies and minds to sink away from the society that has been built around us, and to instead turn focus internally. A chance to check in with ourselves, uninhibited by the external forces that are otherwise omnipresent. There is no magic in the float tank, the magic is us. Our bodies have spent millions of years learning how to take care of themselves, and the float tank simply provides the optimum environment with which to do so.
