THE FLOAT EXPERIENCE
Floatation, also known as Floating & R.E.S.T. (Restricted Environment Stimulus Therapy) is a therapy whereby you float safely, comfortably and effortlessly in 10” of magnesium Epsom salts, within a spacious Float Room. The salts give the water its buoyancy, so your body can float with ease... Imagine no noise interference, social media or people distractions just complete peace from the outside world.

TESTIMONIALS
“I remember my first float, it was a little bit daunting, as I had never been in a float room before and did not know what to expect, however I was also excited and couldn't wait to try it out. I'd had long term chronic knee pain, and after researching what the athletes used for their knee pain, the float tank was what was recommended so having a float room experience couldn’t have come soon enough!”
