Hi everyone :)
Sometimes I love it to just stay in the bathtub (if there is one) and let me drift, but recently I remembered a thing named "Floating Tank" and it seemingly provides a much better environment to relax. Now I looked up the definition in wikipedia and some things catch my eyes. Such a tank is not only good for relaxation, but also for some health issues:

Since Magnesium absorption through the skin with magnesium sulphate or magnesium chloride is already common knowledge here, I think there is another thing what could be added as a "secondary" health effect: FIR heater elements. ;)
There are tanks in all shapes and forms, with a lot of stuff like color light, underwater sound, massage nozzles, remote control etc, what makes them, of course, awfully expensive. Fortunately there are also floatation tank centers.

Here is a side with plenty of information about the subject, based on the book "The Book of Floating" by Michael Hutchison

I wonder what effects could be the result in combination with EE and the three stage breathing.
Up to now I didn't had the chance to float around a little bit and give you a first hand experience about that, but maybe someone here have the opportunity to test it. If you want to build your own tank, here are some good advice:

Stay floating ;)

Most float tanks use epsom salt, Magnesium sulphate (sulfate), in high concentration so that the relative density of the solution is about 1.25. (Lilly recommended 1.3 but this requires operating very close to saturation with the risk of recrystalisation). The density assists floating particularly making the head buoyant so that the nose and mouth are well out of the water for breathing.
It has recently been discovered that there is a secondary effect which is important to floatation therapy. Magnesium is absorbed through the skin thanks to natural molecular diffusion. This tends to correct a common deficiency. Magnesium is absorbed from the diet but in many areas of the world over cropping without adequate replacement of magnesium makes the normal diet low in Magnesium
