From the reviews

Being a VERY Claustrophobic person, I was reluctant to try this. The staff explained I could Float with the pod open or closed. I tried it closed and found myself totally relaxed and not feeling claustrophobic at all. No a bit!

★★★★★ — Radley, Aug 2025

This was my first time doing a float and I was visiting from out of town, so I had no idea what to expect. The facility was lovely and super clean. The instructional videos and emails were super helpful. I really liked the vibe of the person who helped me.

★★★★★ — Melissa, Mar 2025

I recommend! Very clean, comfortable, and welcoming facility. Nice touches like lovely scented body wash, jellyfish tank sitting area and more. Floating feels great, the Epsom salt content is very high and it’s so relaxing! A good way to work on meditation if you’re into that. Not to mention you feel amazing after!

★★★★★ — Molly, Jan 2025

As a retired practitioner of bodywork modalities and frequent sensory deprivation tank user-years ago, I've come back to the "tank" to treat my deployment injuries. The isolation of the tank allows one's mind and body to "unwind", literally. It clears the mind and allows the fascia to ease and relax.

What to expect from your first cupping session

New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
