The Decompression Tank - Taking float therapy to new heights

Contact details to purchase a FP decompression tank: [e-mail]
How do you relate to gravity? Although few are discussing this, at FP it's our primary concern. As I go further into my career, I am beginning to understand that our technology in many ways is the limiting factor in us finding adequate balance with our biomechanics. The Decompression tank will be another tool to help advance humans in ways not imagined before.
What does it do? Watch the video to find out.

Tested this out personally in Seattle. After only 30 min. Felt substantial changes in lumbar and hip compression. My body felt lighter stepping out. Great product

[@T1337P]

Did this in the harbor with a cinderblock around my feet

[@Freeman42718]

This is what I’ve been looking for.

[@greenlablz]

Keep it up FP! The long awaited remedies for our sedentary culture!

[@hotmojo1]

Brilliant. My compressed lumbar discs cannot wait to see this product on the market. Best wishes!

[@adolfoforonda3363]

Look forward to learning more when the product launches.

[@BaretSports]

Sounds like a good products. Good for you Naudi, well done.

[@saltysnatch6733]

Oh my god I want to use this so freaking badly. This would feel so nice

[@elevate619]

I def want to try this! Keep moving intentionally Naudi

[@braylens1822]

I’m terms of pain or physical therapy then yes this works. In terms of relaxation and actual sensory deprivation and being at one’s with your thoughts then float tanks are what you need

[@universalpriestess8702]

Also your hair doesn’t have to get wet! This is genius! I want one!

[@ThoseStairsTheFirst]

Also no more stuff inside your ears and no noise. That's important! Much more sensory isolating than regular float tanks. Can't wait to try it!

[@raymond5597]

Great invention!

[@whateverthedaybrings2268]

Very cool! I'm sure it is more comfortable than a inversion table....but an inversion table is much cheaper. Still a great idea though!

[@alapanroy134]

Well Done

[@functionalvanconversion4284]

Revolutionary!

[@therealDannyVasquez]

This is pretty cool.

[@scentilatingone2148]

This is a clever idea

[@dragonryucr2000]

Italians invented this, they used to put your feet in a cement block and throw you in a river.

[@saintjabroni]

OMG.... they were geniuses!

Works great! Not one single complaining person.

[@tomgesner9731]

where can i find one of these in new jersey

[@McPro90]

Naudi is wearing blueblockers, nice!

[@EternalDestiny48]

Any different from swimming pool? Inversion table?

[@reign2566]

I would love to help with this and have thought about this for some time and have always pictured a float tank with temp control, breathing aperatus, and allowing the body to relax

[@cluless80]

Is this available in australia?

[@BabyBunch]

Floating was amazing and once you relax you don’t do awkward movements.

[@naioane740]

How much is your tank and where can i purchase this from.

[@kyledawson4535]

Another very informational video. It would be awesome if I could work for you or intern for you some day

[@caelencarstensen7274]

would adding saltwater help as it would increase boyancey and decompresson?

[@stevennaumovski8477]

Great work!!

[@AliUguz]

Hey Naudi, what are your thoughts on spinal decompression by hanging from a bar and spinal decompression techniques used by chiropractors.

[@functionalpatterns]

floating in water is much different than floating in air. Floating in air is much more localized when it comes to decompression. If the fascia releases on air decompression, it will happen superficially. That's not what we are aiming to do.

[@AliUguz]

What about techniques used by chiropractors?

[@relaxingemotions390]

@wendef umg The main problem of traction tables/machines is that before to start your body already had a defensive situations, some muscles tense and some other too much relaxed, etc... and when you start the traction they will increase the defensive situation. Even if traction machines use normal or state of the arts traction to overcome this problem the final results, at least with my back, are nothing or irrilevant or worse

[@MegamanTheSecond]

What's the difference between this and hanging upside down by your ankles?

[@nickfranco2259]

Do you guy's have a location?

[@TachoSJ]

Brilliant!

[@derekt6587]

Will there be a cover over the top so you're in meditative darkness similar to traditional float tanks?

[@greenlablz]

That would be seemingly ideal huh. Would also likely add to the de-compressive effect also as once external stimulus is taken away the body would be able to wholly and solely focus its energies on the anti-gravitational force

[@ThoseStairsTheFirst]

Darkness is good for sleeping and dreaming. It's not ideal for deep meditation and the state of pure consciousness (samadhi / transcendence). Dim light with 7000-12000K color temperature (simulating overcast sky and/or twilight, blue hour) is ideal for meditation.

[@baileybermond1930]

is there a way you could make this handicap accessible?

[@relaxingemotions390]

yes, of course but better with another tank entry

[@TransTurbine]

How do your arms naturally want to sit while in the tank. Seems like they would want to rise and hit the sides of the tank.

[@relaxingemotions390]

Where is the problem ? By the way if you want you can add a weight to your wrists, too.

[@Rosefinity]

Did you purchase a Nitrous Tank when you ordered 3 of everything when you visited Harry's in the Fast and Furious?

[@Antonio-yp3tj]

Cream chargers?

[@TheHouseOfRonin]

Hi, Naudi. Just my opinion, but what if you also invented a neck pillow type of device that can float so one could wear it around your neck when in this tank? That way your neck muscles can relax and even provide decompression to the C spine while you float. Seems like the current way you have to keep holding your head up. Let me know what you think, take care.

[@functionalpatterns]

Already built into the system. It's actually a requirement to use the machine

[@diegoonline1]

Hey Naudi, then maybe it would be great to have it shown on the video. I came to your comment by accident and this pillow feature is important for people like me that look primarily for tne whole body relaxation to the point of losing the awareness safely... by the video itself the neck seems unassisted. Showing that on the video may increase your potential customers I guess.

[@Matte1588]

Any doctor opinion or actual scientific test done on this?

[@Gamer-fd3id]

Yeah, about that...

[@charles9021]

Now I remember naudi saying something on how the inversion table is no good. (I could be wrong) Maybe a dumb question but what is the difference ?

[@functionalpatterns]

water atmosphere is different than air atmosphere. the best thing you'll do on an inversion table is decompress your ankles. On top of that, you can only remain upside down for a short period of time. You can be in this thing for a while.

[@charles9021]

functionalpatterns thanks for the reply 👍

[@liammcilhenney4420]

False www.livestrong.com/article/116107-inversion-table-benefits/

[@relaxingemotions390]

@@functionalpatterns I bought an inversion table and I could not use it because my pain increased , my body resists authomatically , my myscles become more tense and the position upside is also recommended to my enemies .... and if ,as many times it happen, your innominate is rotate, out of position and your sacroiliac joint is inflameted, etc... your problems will increase.

[@jayaychare7318]

Fair play for the idea, sounds great . but did I read that correctly online , 25k, how the hell is this being sold for that price ?

[@renaldomariano8612]

A good float tank is around that price

[@brandonmccainfptx3225]

Duuude, this is legit as hell! I remember when they were bringing in all the bags of epsom salt during HBS 1. I Never got to try it out and im looking forward to in the future!

[@eikehomringhaus4791]

Great

[@joshscannell9910]

What about gravity boots?

[@dmitrynet2009]

add some ice in the tank)

[@BolloCollo]

This type of Floating is actually how it was originally invented for the first time by genius John C. Lilly :-)

[@stephgel]

John C Lilly was a sick individual who claimed to have wiped out children memory…

[@johnnytsunami7601]

It's a shame 75% of these comments are hating and/or trolling. This really is a genius idea/tool. This dude rlly is ahead of the game in terms of rehab bcuz most ppl wait until in injury to rehab. He is one of few fitness professionals who realize AND spread the idea that rehabbing poor biomechanics and instituting structural integrity prior to any type of fancy movement or sports specific technique will actually prevent injury and also de stress the organism by creating more efficient movement. Huge fan here naudi. Keep up the great work.

[@Returntognoing333]

Amazing, know anyone on the east coast who has the tank?

[@TehCthulhu]

So laying down in bed still vertically compresses your spine, but being in water is anti-gravity.

[@relaxingemotions390]

I have some floating tank as well as back lumbar problems. Yes, for sure, when I lay down vertically in bed or inside my floating tanks some muscles that connect to lumbar vertebrae are not relaxed, worse they become shorter and add pressure to my vertebral disks

[@yourlocaltoad5102]

Well, it’s water that’s saturated with Epsom salts and this leads to the water having a higher density than your body does. So your body will constantly be pulled up, which would work to counter gravity.

[@dhairyaparekh7760]

Can this fix wedged vertebrae or compressed vertebrae

[@antdx316]

Need some sort of failsafe just incase someone goes headfirst and alone.

[@TheJosue_Gonzalez]

Agreed

[@relaxingemotions390]

Using Epsom Salt water solution your body float and a lot in vertical position. Like in standard floating tank you cannot drown. I cannot see how a persono can reverse her body in this decompression tank. Anyway, I agree that it will be necessary a failsafe and it is very easy to find a solution .

[@roverman985]

I was interested until I seen the price of $25,000 for it. That's extremely over priced for what it is. Super easy to build one at home.

[@mindit808]

Can you direct me to a link where I can learn to build one?

[@yourlocaltoad5102]

@@mindit808 Just get a container that’s high enough, mount a pulley system to the floor of the container and have a rope with some ankle-cuffs go down there, so you can hold your feet down , add a filtration and heating system and then fill in the water and add enough Epsom salt to create the necessary water density. Just look which components you have availiable in your area and within your budget and then research how to properly install them or ask someone with a bit more diy-experience for help.

[@browar6186]

When you work without gravitation there is no resistance forcing you brain to learn how to manage you body in normal circumstances People are develop to exist in space with gravitation not without Water gives only one thing if you want to use it It's resistance with moves of your body wich means nothing for me because core stabilization in gravitation situation is always more important You always says that people are develop to run and walk and now you say that they have to stand in water? I don't think so sorry

[@TheSwiatu]

Is it possible to fill this with snake oil?

[@MrJ1S]

so this can possibly add an inch of height ?

[@vardaspavarde8480]

If you have good posture no

[@paru212]

Yes while you are in there

[@greenlablz]

Over time decompression along with postural muscle activation exercises will allow ones spine to be neutral and upright and potentially add height

[@vardaspavarde8480]
