Floating therapy (also called floatation therapy or sensory deprivation therapy)—now that’s next-level relaxation. It’s like giving your brain and body a vacation at the same time. Here's the full scoop:
You float in a tank or pod filled with warm water and Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate)—so dense that your body effortlessly floats, kind of like the Dead Sea. The environment is:
Dark and quiet (or very low light/sound, depending on your preference)
Often soundproof
Temperature-matched to your skin
It creates a zero-gravity, low-sensory experience—hence the “sensory deprivation.”
By cutting out external stimuli, your brain can enter theta wave states—those dreamy, meditative brainwaves that usually only happen just before sleep or in deep meditation.
Reduces stress, anxiety, and mental fatigue big time.
The Epsom salts help relax muscles and reduce inflammation
Great for chronic pain, back issues, or post-workout recovery
Many floaters say they sleep way deeper and more peacefully after a session, especially if they go in the evening
That clear, calm state often helps people with creative blocks or mental burnout
It’s popular among artists, athletes, and entrepreneurs alike
Some people use it for meditation, mindfulness, or visualization
You’re so “in your body” that you can become more aware of tension or stress you didn’t know you were holding
At our spa, our one session is 60 minutes
First-timers might take a bit to settle in, but once you do—it’s pure zen
