How a Float Session can Help Your Fiesta Hangover

It’s Fiesta time! Whether you took in the Battle of Flowers Parade, NIOSA, Oyster Bake or any of the myriad other Fiesta events, they all likely had one thing in common: margaritas. And beer. And more margaritas. And possibly more beer. If you woke up the morning after a Fiesta event to find that you’d perhaps overdone it a bit on the celebratory adult beverages, no judgement - and we can help! Here’s what happens to your body when you’re hungover, and here’s how a float can help.


  1. Toxins

To our bodies, alcohol is a toxin. As such, after a heavy night of drinking, it can take up to 48 hours for your body to completely process out all the alcohol. The high magnesium level of epsom salts make floating a great detox and a great help to your hard-working liver.


  1. Headaches

The ultra calming, totally quiet and dark atmosphere of a float tank is widely know to relieve headaches - even migraines. If you have a lingering hangover headache (or other aches and pains), a float is an excellent way to send it packing.


  1. Inflammation

Drinking puffs you up at the cellular level. Floating decreases inflammation at the cellular level. See where we’re going, here? If your muscles and joints are inflamed for any reason (drinking or otherwise), floating can definitely help.


  1. Dehydration

While floating doesn’t hydrate you on the inside, it helps your skin plump back up and feel softer and smoother after the float. Then, once you’re done floating, be sure to go drink some water. ;)


  1. Trouble Sleeping

Floating is a superstar when it comes to improving sleep quality. If a night (ok, a weekend?) of drinking has tanked your sleep, come in for a float to get your zzzz’s sorted out and back on track.


Fiesta is such a unique part of San Antonio’s cultural heritage, and we certainly hope you enjoyed it – we hope you took in all the sights, sounds and tastes. If you overdid it a smidge on the tastes in delicious liquid form, no worries! Just come see us, and we’ll get you back to feeling great in no time.
