Let go.

FLOAT THERAPY

Float Therapy, commonly known as Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy (REST) and Sensory Deprivation, heals both the mind and body simultaneously. Floating is the easiest way to experience deep relaxation, profound meditation, and breakthrough recovery. It's completely natural, safe, and backed by years of clinical research.

Imagine completely disconnecting – in order to reconnect with yourself on a much deeper level. 1,200 lbs of pharmaceutical grade epsom salts soothing all of your aches and pains in an anti-gravity environment without a single pressure point anywhere on your body. You start to lose track of where the water meets your skin because it's heated to your skin temperature. As your nervous system grows calmer and calmer, you let go of anything and everything with great intention. If this resonates with you, welcome to the float community.

Whether you are overcoming burnout, unwinding from a long day, recovering from a workout, or exploring consciousness, flotation therapy can bring profound value to anyone's life. Its applications are limitless and commonly used to complement medical, psychological, spiritual, body work, and other healing methods. It can be used in prepartation for, or in conjunction with, other pre/post-float activities as well. Examples include exercise, massage, yoga, pilates, acupuncture, psychotherapy, and other educational therapies. Floatation therapy is a powerful tool for development and a great addition to anyone's wellness journey.

BEST PRACTICES

Floating regularly provides spectacular wellness benefits. If you have never floated before, we recommend starting out with 3-4 treatments in the first month to experience the full benefits of float therapy, then adjust as needed. Although most customers experience benefits their first float treatment, sometimes it can take a few sessions to get the hang of it and really let go.

What's it like?​

​

  • The  float pod creates an anti-gravity environment that allows you to float effortlessly due to the buoyancy of the solution.

​

  • This eliminates all pressure points, providing spectacular pain relief and physiological reconditioning.

​

  • Both the water and ambient air are maintained at skin temperature (93.5ºF), so you do not feel anything once you settle into the float.

​

  • By eliminating all sensory inputs, it's as if your mind is completely untethered from your body, free to engage in unadulterated thought and exploratory manifestations. It is relaxation in its purest form.

​

  • This provokes creativity, rich meditation, and enhanced problem solving abilities, allowing you to stay present and unlock your true inner potential.​

​

  • Clinical grade magnesium sulfate promotes faster recovery from injuries, sores, swelling, muscle aches, migraines/headaches, etc.

​

  • For the first time, you are completely alone and in tune with yourself on an extremely profound level.

​

  • It is an experience that is very personal and unique to the floater. Many will tell you it cannot be adequately described with words.
