It’s kind of new business, The business’s idea sound interesting. There are a lot of new idea to making money, some of them like this, as Kelsey thinks are wacky and spooky!

In my opinion float tank is scary and it isn’t worth to scare and spend a lot of many to do that!

From my point of view going to a calm place like a calm beach or being in a distance island for a while time could help me to feel relaxed, renew myself and it could rejuvenate me. But of course this is a dream!
Float tank is artificial method for relaxing, human needs nature, not what human made it.

I’ve never tried a float tank, I guess it is not very common in Brazil, anyway, if it were famous over here I wouldn’t feel curious about trying it!


I’d not say it would be scaring or soothing but I wouldn’t like to pay an expensive price to find out it is a wacky thing!
