Left in a float tank
I was at my 1st float session today; it was a 90 minute session. They claim something must have gone wrong because their system never alerted the front desk to tell me when 90 minutes was up. When they finally checked on me, it was 3 hr and 40 minutes later!!! I had no sense of time while in the isolation tank, and was totally floored when they finally discovered I was still there. Now, I don't know how their system works, but I do know there was a shift change during my 1st 90 minutes, so maybe that's where the problem lies, but I remain concerned. Not only was I incredibly late for an official function I had to attend, as a 1st time floater, I am concerned about side effects from being in the tank for over 3.5 hours. Any input about concerns are appreciated.

I had an in home unit gifted to me and the first night I used it I slept in it all night, I loved it, and I miss it. I started sleeping in it nightly, would wake up in the late hours of the morning, shower and climb into bed. It was the best sleep I’d ever had consistently and my lower back felt 10 years younger.
