Welcome

This blog is set-up as a compendium to gather all the basic facts and scientific theories surrounding John C. Lilly's research on the lightless, soundproof tank that is known as a sensory deprivation tank, or simply, the isolation tank. I will be exploring the studies that support the form of alternative medicine and studies that do not, as well as the media's portrayal of this weird science.

People may find this interesting as I will reveal intriguing information about isolation and the affect it has on patients. I will present this information over a period of a couple weeks through different posts. I hope you learn a thing or two!

So grab yourself a coffee and stick around!

Experiences in Altered States and Parallel Dimensions

Does being in an isolation tank allow you to travel to other dimensions? Can I gain supernatural powers? Can I become a ghost?

Body Boundries

We humans are comprised of bone, flesh and skin. This combination allows us to use our senses of sight, smell, sound, taste and touch to interact with our environment in a way that could never have been considered with the exclusion of such perceptive information. 

Enough REST, time to learn.

Before we mention the intricate design of the isolation tank, we must mention the origins of the alternative practice and the notable figures associated with the science.
