Aguasal Floatation Center Announces Contest to Find the Most Stressed Person in Chicago

Aguasal Floatation Center Announces Contest to Find the Most Stressed Person in Chicago

CHICAGO (PRWEB) July 16, 2005

Are you stressed, under duress or depressed? If so, Aguasal Floatation Center wants you. Aguasal Floatation Center claims that they provide the most effective relaxation tool on the market, and wants ChicagoÂ’s most stressed person to put them to the test.

“Float tanks are pretty cutting edge, so most people aren’t familiar with them yet,” said Frank Rodriguez, Co-Founder of Aguasal Floatation Center. “To put it simply, it’s a shallow pool that measures 8 feet long by 5 feet wide. It’s filled with ten inches of a very dense Epsom saltwater solution that causes anyone to float like a cork, even if they’re unable to float in a swimming pool. This simulates a zero gravity environment and allows for deep relaxation, as well as long-lasting pain relief, thanks to the Epsom salt and the giant burst of endorphins your brain releases in response to this relaxing environment. Some people put Epsom salt in their bathtub to relieve aches and pains, but we’ve taken it to a whole new level by dissolving a ½ ton of Epsom salt into 200 gallons of skin-temperature water. The results are fast and often dramatic. I used floating to quickly bring six years of debilitating back pain to a complete stop.”

“Living in Chicago is stressful” Rodriguez said. “There’s traffic, crime, noise, pollution, long hours. It’s a great city, but there aren’t too many places to genuinely relax. Going to the bar or watching TV will often wind people up even more with nervous energy. It’s not true relaxation, so we’re looking for the most stressed person in Chicago to show them what true relaxation REALLY is.”

Aguasal Floatation Center will be accepting personal essays of 100 words or less on why a person believes they are the most stressed person in Chicago. The owners of Aguasal Flotation Center will judge the entries and the winner will be announced on September 2nd. Normally, a month pass costs $240.

“If you work on the mercantile exchange, are one of Chicago’s Finest, work in the emergency room or have one of the hundreds of thousands of severely stressful jobs in Chicago, we want to hear from you” said Rodriguez. “Excessive and untreated stress has been linked to heart disease, depression, cancers, headaches, weight gain, insomnia, irritability and back pain. This all adds up to a substandard life and an early death and nobody wants that.”

Michael Chesler of Land 88 Realty Development had this to say; “After being referred to Aguasal for a painful lower back, I was welcomed with no appointment at a moments notice. I have never been in a place that caters to an individual’s every need, with the ultimate in professionalism. In regards to my back pain, I arrived with difficulty standing up and walked out so relaxed and un-stressed I almost forgot the discomfort I came with!”

The contest will be open until Thursday September 1st. The winner will be announced Friday September 2nd. Everyone is invited to enter and can send their entry to aguasal at sbcglobal. net.
