What our clients have to say about floating...
Additional Information
Tips for first time floaters:
- Fill out our intake form online (it should be popping up in the bottom right corner) and read the float pod section
- Do not float if you have dyed your hair recently and cannot yet dry it on a white towel without bleeding color
- Do not shave your legs the day you plan to float. This can sometimes cause a burning sensation in the salty water
- Eat a snack about an hour before floating, to ensure that you float in complete comfort, and aren't worried about being hungry or digesting any "problem" foods
- Try not to drink caffeine before floating, as it can hinder your ability to completely relax and be calm inside the pod
(also, it increases the chance that you will need to get out to use the restroom)
- You will shower before and after your float session, so don't worry about putting makeup on before you arrive! We provide soap and shampoo, but feel free to bring a hair brush and/or any styling products you may desire to use.
Who should NOT float?
The above link better explains the (very few) medical issues mentioned on our waiver in regards to the float pod. If you read it, you may notice that most of them are just being cautious for our sake (liability) and, for the most part, even people with these conditions would most likely benefit from floating. If you speak to your doctor about any concerns and seek approval to float, just explain that it is “cutaneous absorption of magnesium sulfate”
