Has anyone tried a flotation tank for pain?

HI

This is probably a silly question but has anyone tried a flotation tank to maybe try and ease some pain?

I know with major surgery it will probably not help, but if anyone has used this after surgery please can I have your views.

Hi, I've not used a tank as such but I have had floatation treatment in a hydrotherapy pool for a condition that I've had for a number of years, this was before my head injury. It was bliss because it meant I had my body totally supported which eased the pain I suffer because of the condition. Results weren't long lasting for me but as I said, it was for a unrelated issue to the head injury. How useful it would be for pain related to head injury I dont know, but if its an option open to you it's worth a shot- nothing ventured nothing gained and all that! Wish you all the best.
