THE SCIENCE
What is REST Float Experience?
Float experience — also known as sensory deprivation experience — is a deeply restorative experience in which you float effortlessly in warm water, completely supported by 1,100 lbs of dissolved Epsom salt. This highly buoyant solution creates a sensation of complete weightlessness, removing all gravitational load from your body while eliminating external light and sound. With all sensory input removed, your mind rapidly descends into a profound meditative state. Your brain begins producing theta waves — the same deeply creative and restorative brainwaves that occur just at the threshold of sleep. Many clients report feeling calmer, looser, and deeply restored. The experience is designed to quiet the nervous system and support whole-body relaxation.
YOUR EXPERIENCE
What to Expect
01
Your Private Float Suite
You'll float in a large, spacious pod — approximately 8 feet long and 6 feet wide — filled with 10 inches of water and 1,100 lbs of dissolved Epsom salt. The buoyant solution gently supports you as you float on your back. Water is maintained at skin temperature (~94.5°F).
02
You're Always in Control
After closing the pod lid (if you choose to), the lights and music fade out gently. You are in complete control — you decide whether to float with the light on or off, how long the music plays, and whether the canopy door is open, closed, or somewhere in between.
03
Everything Provided
We provide everything you need: premium towels, slippers, robe, shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, earplugs, ointment for scratches, and water. Simply arrive and surrender.
04
Pristine Hygiene Standards
Every room and pod are thoroughly sanitized before each use. The water is treated with a combination of filtration, UV sterilization, and disinfectants. The high salt concentration itself is also naturally antimicrobial.
RESEARCH-BACKED
NASA researched sensory deprivation for astronaut training. One hour of floating produces the equivalent rest of four hours of deep sleep.

WHY IT WORKS
Benefits of REST Float Experience
Physical Comfort
The anti-gravity environment removes all pressure from joints, muscles, and the spine — allowing complete decompression.
Deep Relaxation
Floating supports a shift in the nervous system toward a deeply restful state. Transdermally absorbed magnesium replenishes depleted levels.
Athletic Recovery
A popular recovery tool for athletes — the zero-gravity environment supports muscle recovery and helps the body clear lactic acid.
Nervous System Support
The sensory-reduced environment supports a shift from sympathetic to parasympathetic nervous system activity.
Whole-Body Wellness
By creating conditions for deep nervous system rest, floating may support overall wellness including sleep, energy, and recovery.
Creativity & Flow
Floating readily produces theta brainwave states — the mental frequency associated with inspiration, creativity, and insight.

QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked
We provide all the amenities you will need: towels, slippers, robe, shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, earplugs, ointment for scratches, and water. You are welcome to bring a hairbrush or anything else you feel you might need.
You may wear a swimsuit or choose to float nude. The room is entirely private, so you are free to float in whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
Many pregnant clients find float experience comfortable and relaxing, particularly during the second trimester when the buoyancy provides welcome relief from the weight of pregnancy. Always consult your OB/GYN or midwife before floating during pregnancy. We recommend waiting until the second trimester and obtaining clearance from your healthcare provider before booking.
Our pods are incredibly spacious — approximately 8 feet in length and 6 feet in width. You have complete control over the lighting, music, and position of the canopy door. The experience of sensory deprivation also tends to erase your perception of boundaries, making the space feel limitless.
Please consult with your healthcare provider if you have any medical conditions or concerns prior to booking an experience.
The water is treated with a combination of filtration, UV sterilization, and disinfectants to ensure a fully hygienic environment. The extremely high salt concentration is also naturally antimicrobial.
Every room and pod are thoroughly sanitized before each use. We maintain rigorous cleaning protocols between every single client.
It is completely safe to fall asleep. The saltwater will keep you buoyant at all times, and the controlled environment ensures your safety throughout your experience.
It's best to avoid heavy meals or alcohol before your experience, but a light snack is fine. Being too hungry can be distracting; being too full can be uncomfortable.
Floaters must be at least 14 years old. Guests under 18 must have a parent or guardian present.
Frequency varies by individual goals and preferences. Some people float weekly for chronic pain management or athletic performance, while others do it monthly as a self-care ritual. See our Recommended Frequency section above for guidance.
We recommend removing contact lenses before your float to avoid potential irritation from the saltwater. Bring a case if you wear contacts.
We recommend avoiding shaving for at least 2 hours before your float. Any stinging from saltwater on freshly shaved skin will fade within minutes, but it can be distracting during the early part of your experience.
If your hair was dyed less than 3 weeks ago, please wait. Salt water can cause color to bleed or fade, and any color still running in the shower means it is not yet safe to float.
