.Just yourself! We have all the supplies you’ll need…shampoo and soap for washing before and after your float, comfortable towels, and earplugs to keep water out of your ears. And even a cup of complimentary tea. There is total privacy in the float room bathing suits aren’t necessary and are not recommended as they detract from the effects of reducing sensory stimulation. If you wear contacts, bring a case or just wear glasses.
Floatation therapy also known as floating, sensory
deprivation or R.E.S.T (restricted environmental stimulation therapy) involves
lying in a room filled with 11 inches of water highly concentrated with 1000 lbs.
of pharmaceutical grade Epsom salts. This creates such a high level of buoyancy
that you are basically in a zero gravity environment. The water temperature is
93.5 degrees plus or minus .5 degrees.
This is the exact temperature of your skin therefore you do not feel the
water on your skin further increasing the feeling of weightlessness. The float
room is sound and light proof which serves to improve the R.E.S.T. environment.
It is the ultimate unplugged experience. Once you have let go the alpha and
beta brain waves slow down and you achieve a deep, relaxing and rejuvenating
meditative state.
For hygiene reason we ask that you do not float when you have your period.
Due to hygiene reason, if you are having a period you should not float. If you are presently ill, kidney problems, epilepsy or have
an active skin condition floating is not recommended. If you have any other concerns please consult with
your doctor.
There are 1000 lbs. of pharmaceutical grade Epsom salt
dissolved in each of our float rooms.
The high level of saline creates an eviorment that no known
microorganism can survive in. After each session the entire volume of the
solution is pumped out and filtered through a filtration and sterilization
system three times utilizing ultra-violent light and H2O2. UV is the safest most efficient sterilization
system available.
Avoid caffeine or energy drinks for several hours before
floating. Eat a light meal about an hour
before your float. Don’t shave or wax immediately prior to floating as the salt
may irritate the fresh skin.
No. Unlike fresh water the water in float rooms contains
high levels of salt so it doesn’t rob your skin of salt which causes the
wrinkles. In fact floating leaves your skin soft and silky.
Absolutely. You float in your own individual room. Each room has its own shower and dressing
area.
How long are float sessions?
Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes typically. Longer sessions are available upon request.
Being in the float room is more
like floating in outer space than being shut in a box. You’re always in control
of your environment, and even people with extreme claustrophobia have reported having
no problems with their time in the room.
