Float Therapy

FLOAT THERAPY

Float therapy, or R.E.S.T. (Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy), allows you to immerse yourself in 850 lbs of epsom salt and 10 inches of water that is heated to skin temperature. The result = anti-gravity environment void of any distractions for the ultimate health and wellness experience. Stress and tension are released from your muscles.

Tips for Floating

 

• Have a light meal or snack prior, but try to avoid heavy meals and caffeine

• If you wear contacts, swap them out for your glasses prior to your float, or bring your lens case and solution with you so you can remove contacts prior to float

• Best to keep your hands out of your eyes during your float session. The salt in your eyes could sting, so best to avoid touching your face

• Remove all jewelry prior to your float session

• Shaving or waxing within 8 hours prior to a float can irritate the skin

• If you have colored treated your hair, you must wait AT LEAST two weeks to float AND your hair must be running clear of color when washed. The dye can contaminate the spa water. If your hair color runs in the shower, on towels, or fabric you are not permitted to float. Hair dye can discolor the solution in the pods and stain the PVC.

• Reschedule your float if you are on your menstrual cycle (no fee for cancellation/reschedule)

• If you have scrapes or cuts, use the ointment provided prior to the float session

• Hydrate - both before and after for optimal wellness

• Relax, let go of any expectations, and enjoy the experience
