The Mended Willow is proud to be the first float spa to open in Venango County. The spa, located in Seneca, Pa, offers floatation therapy, a truly unique opportunity to completely relax your body and mind. Perfectly supported by a skin temperature solution of 800 pounds of pharmaceutical grade Epsom salt and about 10 inches of water, you'll lose track of where your body ends and the water begins. Basking in total weightlessness, you'll release all the tension stored in your muscles, allowing your mind to rest like never before. You will emerge with a euphoric afterglow that can last for days afterwards.
Float therapy has been around and studied for over 70 years. Dr John C. Lilly developed the very first isolation tank all the way back in 1954. Floating is known to have both mental and physical healing properties and is often used for stress relief, anxiety relief, depression relief and PTSD in addition to pain relief, enhanced sleep and rapid muscle recovery.
Each float session lasts sixty minutes and the experience is customized with music and blue light to the level of comfort and desire each client has for complete sensory deprivation, which is a light and soundproof environment. Floating in complete sensory deprivation allows the brain waves to slow to the theta state, the dream-like state right before one falls asleep. The experience provides a tranquil environment that encourages the mind, body and soul to heal from within.
Owner, Tonya Moorehead, shares her vision: "We have a passion for holistic healing and are excited to provide such a unique opportunity to our community. We believe humans have a need for healing not only on a physical level but also on an emotional, spiritual, and psychological level. We pride ourselves in cultivating an inclusive, relaxing space where anyone can feel comfortable to deeply unwind, heal, and restore. We can’t wait to see you soon.”
The Mended Willow is a local family owned and operated float therapy / sensory deprivation business. For more information, please visit www.themendedwillow.com or call 814-758-2273 or email themendedwillow@gmail.com.
