You Must Be Above 16 Years of Age To Use Our Float Pods
If You Have A Medical Condition Please Consult With Your GP Prior To Floating.
How is the water cleaned?
100% of the salt water from each float is fully drained and filtered by industry leading filtration systems. Epsom salts are also one of the best natural disinfectants making it almost impossible for any bacteria to reside within our float pods. Each float pod is tested for its salt level and cleanliness prior to any float taking place.
Can I fall asleep during float?
It will require great effort to even touch the bottom of the float tank due to the natural buoyancy created by the salt and water mixture. Falling asleep during a float session can be quite common due to the relaxed meditative state most users go into to. If you want to ensure you stay awake you will also have control over the mood lighting and music levels.
Is the water warm?
Yes, the water is warm and heated to a temperature that is ideal for your relaxation.
What if I’m claustrophobic?
Claustrophobia is common and many don’t like being in confided spaces, the space of our float pods will help alleviate that feeling with you being able to move around freely. If you feel like it is too much then the pod is easily opened quickly if needed.
What should I bring to my Float?
