flotation tanks

Isolation pod chambers

Flotation tanks are enclosed chambers filled with body-temperature saltwater dense enough to let a person float effortlessly.

Used for sensory deprivation therapy, relaxation, and meditation, they block out light, sound, and physical sensation: An hour in the flotation tank left me deeply relaxed.

Also called isolation tanks or sensory deprivation tanks.
