Psychedelics in Isolation Float Tanks: Exploring the Unknown

Isolation float tanks have been in existence for over six decades, but only during the last ten years did the world begin to understand the tremendous benefits they can offer. People use float tanks to take in the silence and accelerate a disconnected experience from the outside world. Recently, researchers have been studying the synergy that could emerge from using psychedelics in isolation float tanks. This blog post aims to examine the cutting-edge insight on this topic.

Apart from just providing psychological benefits, sensory deprivation tanks have proved to be an excellent way of enhancing the quality of meditation. Nonetheless, adding psychedelics could elevate the level of consciousness experienced. Research states that psychedelics and floating enhance each other’s positive effects, having a significant influence on creativity and mood levels.

The research measures a vast range of different substances used in isolation floating, such as ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, LSD and DMT, and their combined effects with floating. Findings suggest that using MDMA in isolation tanks could have significant therapeutic potential in treating PTSD and anxiety disorders. MDMA, a compound that enhances emotional empathy, could help people create language and emotions to communicate the event in their lives that they had to conceal.

When ketamine is administered, it improves the feeling of separation and mindfulness, and when it’s combined with floatation therapy, the cure is amplified. Research from a broad range of people has shown significantly reduced symptoms of depression when getting ketamine-assisted therapy into the tank.

With other psychedelics such as LSD or psilocybin, end-users have described the experience to be vivid and more profound, producing a state of flow, which targets states of self-awareness and interconnectedness.

The use of psychedelics in isolation float tanks is a fascinating and innovative concept, with significant potential to enhance introspection, alleviating symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This unique combination and how they interact are subjects that in the years to come will need more analysis to yield further insights into their synergistic capability. As more research is conducted, we can expect to learn more about this intriguing combination and the potential benefits it could have on individuals’ spiritual or psychological health.
