Float therapy: a plain-language guide
Float therapy means floating in a pod or room filled with warm water and so much Epsom salt that you're effortlessly buoyant, often with light and sound reduced (sensory deprivation).
What a session is like
Sessions are usually 60 to 90 minutes in a private room with a shower. You can keep the lights or music on, or switch everything off.
Why people book it
People often float to rest deeply, relieve physical tension or carve out quiet, screen-free time.
How to choose someone
- Ask how they clean and filter the water.
- First-timers sometimes prefer an open float room over a closed pod.
- Avoid shaving or waxing on the day; the salt can sting.
Questions
Can I float if I can't swim?
Yes. You float naturally; the water is shallow.
Will I feel claustrophobic?
You can keep the lid open and lights on. Many centers have open rooms too.
Who should avoid floating?
People with open wounds, uncontrolled epilepsy or some skin conditions. Ask if unsure.
What it costs
Across Sanctuary Ground, float therapy sessions usually start between $40–$95 (the middle range of 11 listings that show prices). Longer sessions, packages and sliding-scale options vary.
