Complete relaxation in Epsom salt flotation therapy and massage

Imagine an environment free of gravity, tension, tightness or pain. Imagine if you could float effortlessly, without distractions or unwanted noise. 

Float Therapy or Sensory Deprivation Therapy involves a zero-gravity environment that allows the mind and body to completely release, relax and reset. Using 500 pounds of Epsom salts in just 24 inches of water, the buoyancy of the water makes floating feel like floating on air. The pools have 30% salt (more than the Dead Sea), so you can literally sleep on the surface of the water. By eliminating gravitational forces acting on the musculoskeletal and nervous system, you can effortlessly relieve pain, relax, recover and improve sleep.

Everything you need to know about your first float session (read also the information in the "Important to know" paragraph):

• After showering, you can enter the Floating Pool, which contains only 24 cm of water
• Lie down gently; the buoyancy of the water will support you effortlessly
• Once the session has started, you'll have access to a remote control from which you can control the lights and music in the pool
• You can bring your own music for floating or opt for a guided meditation; just let us know before the session
• Our recommendation is the experience as originally designed, without light or sound. However, the most important thing is your comfort
• The session is over once a beep - gong - is heard in the background
• Don't worry, if you fall asleep and maybe don't hear the signal, we repeat it after 3 minutes when we will announce that the session is over through the intercom in the pool.
• You have full control over the light and music during the session. We recommend that you turn them off for the most profound experience - but this will always be up to you.
• Initially, pain or tension in the body may seem more noticeable. This is due to the ability of the pelvis to remove the typical distractions we experience. Simply breathe and find that this is normal. As the session progresses, the sensations will dissipate.

After the float session:

• After the session, feel free to use our refresh room, which includes hair dryer, creams, thermal water, etc
• We encourage you to spend some time in the reception to enjoy a freshly brewed tea immediately after the float
• Floating is serious therapy; drink plenty of water after your session
• The benefits of float therapy follow you in the days after the session. Pay attention to how you feel in the following days
• Did you sleep better? How are your pain levels? Do you notice a better, more carefree mood?
• When we feel better, life feels better too. We hope you'll consider coming back again to experience Float Therapy (Sensory deprivation)
