Project Arcturus

Who wants to help fund and participate in the largest float study that has ever been conducted?!  Project Arcturus is an international study that will help shape the arc of future float research.  Sign up your float center today by making a $100 recurring monthly donation:

We aim to start the study in 2024 and publish the results by 2025, so please sign up now to participate in this landmark study!  All money raised and pledged through the end of 2023 will be matched dollar for dollar (up to $150,000) by

 Guardian Eco Group, an R&D and philanthropic organization based in the Gold Coast of Australia that is focused on

promoting wellness on Earth via sustainable energy and the development of novel healing modalities. 

The Float Research Collective is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and all donations are tax-deductible.  Our mission is to establish worldwide acceptance for Floatation-REST (Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy) as a treatment to naturally relieve pain, stress, anxiety and other related conditions.

Fundraising Campaign Goals

Join the Float Research Collective — a community of researchers, doctors, healthcare professionals, and float therapy advocates — in our mission to get float therapy approved as a medical treatment so that it can be accessible to everyone. Help us revolutionize pain management, stress reduction, and anxiety relief without the need to chronically use highly addictive medications like benzodiazepines and opioids. 

Dr. Justin Feinstein and his team envision a future where therapies like floating can be used to naturally relieve pain, stress, and anxiety. Using state-of-the-art wireless and waterproof technology, and a decentralized model of data collection, the FRC aims to explore inner space to understand what happens when the brain and body are in a state of complete sensory relaxation. The $1 million establishment goal below will put the FRC on solid ground to conduct this groundbreaking research, possibly at a float center near you. 

Discover the remarkable therapy that naturally relieves pain, stress, and anxiety

Watch uplifting stories of ordinary people reducing their stress, easing their pain, and performing at their highest level through Floatation Therapy. On the heels of

Dr. Feinstein's groundbreaking research showing the rapid anti-anxiety and antidepressant effect of floating, this film follows Shane Stott as he introduces floating to the people who need it the most, and in the process helps them learn how to heal themselves. 

FLOATING provides a behind-the-scenes look into the science, where you will get to see Dr. Feinstein's floatation research

in action!

What is Floatation-REST???

(Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy)

During Floatation-REST you effortlessly float on a bed of water that has been saturated with over a thousand pounds of Epsom salt and heated to skin temperature.  The pool is built in a specially-calibrated environment that minimizes stimulation on the human nervous system including signals from visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, thermal, tactile, vestibular, gravitational and proprioceptive sensory channels.

In a world of nonstop 24/7 connectivity, Floatation-REST

can powerfully counter the deleterious effects of stress in

modern life, improving both our mental and physical health.
