About Floatation Therapy

First, lets cover things to avoid before you arrive:

​

• avoid caffeine a few hours before floating​

• avoid shaving or waxing, and if you have any larger open wounds it is best to avoid floating until they heal

• dying your hair, if your hair has been recently dyed (within 7 days) the water could bleach it and could also contaminate the water

• please remove contacts before floating

• avoid large meals, but also don't come hungry! You won't want to be distracted by your stomach during your float

 

Now on to your float, we will provide towels, ear plugs, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and petroleum jelly (more on that later.) You are welcome to bring your own body wash, shampoo, and conditioner but only to be used AFTER your float. Once inside your float room, the host will begin the filling process of the float pod. (pods are emptied and sterilized between each session.) Earplugs are next (to prevent salt and water from getting in your ears.) You will want to insert our silicone ear plugs before you shower, it helps seal them. Now use the petroleum jelly to cover any small cuts or scrapes (to avoid getting salt in them and cause them to sting.) You will then take a short shower using the all natural unscented body wash and shampoo provided. NO CONDITIONER before your float! Bathing suits are acceptable in the pods, however we recommend floating fully naked to get the full benefits of sensory deprivation. By the time your are done showering your float pod should be filled and ready to go. Step on in. Before laying down, gently pull the lid closed by the handle on the inside of the pod. (If you are not completely comfortable, you are able to leave the lid cracked open.)  LED lights will be on in the pod for the first 5 minutes of your float as you ease yourself into a completely relaxed state as you float effortlessly in the float solution. Now let go, relax, and allow your body to experience true, pure REST. 

​

When your float is over, the lights in the pod will slowly come back on for the last 5 minutes. Now you may stand up and push the lid open. Please try to wipe off any excess salt before stepping out back into your shower. Take another warm shower to remove the rest of the salt, using our provided natural soaps or your own personal soaps if you like. Once you have re-dressed, please head out to the relaxation room for a refreshing tea or infused water. We also have a separate dressing room to finish getting ready if needed for makeup, blow drying, etc...
