Brain volumetric changes after sensory isolation: single case experimental design

Journal of Neurology & Stroke August 11, 2022 Andrea Catalina Nassar Tobón, Fernando Yaacov Peña, Christian Stephan‐Otto

A pilot test with one participant found that 30 serial sessions of guided meditations in a sensory isolation tank changed brain structure, triggered the relaxation response, and generated greater physical, psychological, and mental well-being. Cerebral volumetric changes were measured by brain magnetic resonance imaging, and physiological variables were documented through neurobiofeedback equipment before and after the sessions.
