FAQ

Is this new age nonsense and like the movie Altered States or show Stranger Things?

Floating has been around for over 60 years and has a wealth of published research to back it up.  No new age nonsense! It is similar to what you see in Altered States and Stranger Things, but you’re not submerged in water, you don’t eat ritualistic mushrooms, and only a Read more…

FAQ

Can more than one person float in a tank at a time and do I have to stay in the entire time?

Only one person per tank.  We have two float rooms, so up to two people can come float simultaneously at our spa. Double-wide tanks do exist, but we think that they take away from the whole ‘sensory deprivation’ experience. There aren’t any latches on the tank doors, and you can get Read more…

FAQ

Can I float if I’ve recently dyed my hair or have a keratin treatment?

FAQ

How do you clean the tanks?

FAQ

Is there anything I should do to prepare?

Try to avoid caffeine for several hours beforehand (it can make your system jittery). Also, don’t shave, tan or wax since the salt water can irritate your skin. Eating a light meal about an hour to 90 minutes ahead of time stops your stomach from sounding like an angry monster Read more…
