An Introduction to Floatation Therapy
A floatation tank, also known as an isolation tank or sensory deprivation tank, is a zero-gravity environment designed to help your mind and body relax, recover, and reset. When begin your floatation therapy session, you’ll enter a clean and serene environment that eliminates all external stimuli. The Epsom salt solution (1,000 pounds of magnesium sulfate mixed into water) makes your body extremely buoyant, and the water is kept at 94 degrees, mimicking the temperature of your skin. So, after you close the door, turn out the lights, and begin to effortlessly float, you’ll be entering a new state of being.
No light. No noise. Pure nothing. No longer affected by the constant downward pull of gravity, your muscle tension will melt away, and you’ll lose track of where your body ends and the solution begins.
Because our brains are regularly bombarded by environmental stimulation, the state of sensory relaxation achieved during a float session acts as a powerful therapeutic tool. Floatation rest offers countless benefits, both physical and mental: increased blood flow, elevated dopamine and endorphins, pain relief, stress reduction, sleep schedule maintenance, and increased creativity, just to name a few.
With that in mind, it’s no wonder that floatation therapy is rising in popularity. From athletes, to biohackers, to people battling a mental illness, to those who simply feel overwhelmed, everyone is recognizing the life-changing power of frequent floating.

Float FAQ’s
The Pod is massive! About 9 1/2 feet long by 5 feet wide and about 5 feet tall and shaped like a giant egg. Unlike older tanks, our Pods are white on the inside and lit should you prefer to leave the lights on. You’ll also have full control of the giant, clamshell door. Feel free to leave it cracked or open as you get used to the space, though once you lie back and close your eyes, relaxation will fully take over!
We promise that, with a half ton of Epsom Salt in shallow water, you’ll have a hard time not floating! No effort or work on your part is necessary to stay afloat. So – yes – it’s absolutely for you!
We will require a release from your primary care doctor before you will be allowed to float. Pregnant clients may experience some of the greatest relief from floating—physically and mentally. The added weight and pressure on the mother’s body is likely to cause pain and discomfort, the weightless impact of floating can provide much relief! Many clients report a unique and memorable experience floating while pregnant.
Epsom salt is a natural antimicrobial and, due to the high salt content in our Pods, bacteria simply can’t live in the water. That said, we also have two filtration systems that cycle all of the water in the Pod 4 to 5 times between users, a bromine system, AND an ozone/UV sanitation system. It’s likely the cleanest water you’ll ever be in!
The room is reserved for your exclusive use during your float session. You may exit anytime, however, please note that credits or refunds will not be given for unused time.
Surprisingly – no! The high level of Epsom Salts prevent the skin from wrinkling. It will, however, leave your skin silky smooth!
The salt water will not harm your hair, but we do not recommend floating if you have dyed your hair, or have had it chemically treated in the past 7 days.
Each Pod contains only 10 inches of incredibly salt-dense water, therefore, it is not required that the user know how to swim. As for drifting off to sleep, we highly encourage it! 1 hour of sleep in the Pod is equivalent to about 4 in your bed due to flotation encouraging your brain waves into theta state. If you happen to roll over in the Pod (trust us, it’s hard to do), the discomfort from the salt water in your eyes will quickly wake you (don’t worry, there’s a fresh water spray bottle in the Pod for a quick rinse).
You can float as often as you like. There are no adverse effects, aside from being too relaxed. There is no limitations on doing “nothing”.
On any open cuts or scrapes, apply our supplied Vaseline before entering the float pod to prevent irritation from the salt.
We recommend floating nude so as to decrease sensory stimulus, but you may float in a swim suit if you’d prefer.
