We tried Edinburgh's futuristic floating pod therapy and it was a revelation

If you haven't heard, Float Scotland, which has wellness centres in Bathgate and West Lothian, has just opened its new purpose-built facility in Ratho offering everything you need to look after your "mind, body and soul in complete luxury".

When we first heard of this, we were intrigued, especially when we were shown images of their futuristic float pods which allow you to float effortlessly in complete sensory silence in what's been described as the ultimate form of relaxation.

And in a world filled with constant attachment to technology and where stress has become an almost constant companion, it seemed like something Edinburgh Live had to try to see just how effective it is.
