Floatation therapy is a unique experience where the client floats weightlessly on their back in a dense saline solution. Our sensory deprivation pod or tank are filled with around a foot of water, and loaded with over 800 pounds of Epsom salt.
Because of the salinity of the water in the pods, it is impossible not to float. The saltwater creates buoyancy, so you will not sink. Your face remains out of the water the entire time.
We take your personal comfort and privacy seriously, and have a special entrance available. Simply call ahead and our staff will provide instructions, if privacy is a concern.
Our tanks are a spacious 9’x5’, and allow for individuals to fully stretch out. We also recommend that individuals who are particularly concerned about the enclosed space may spend their first session with the door to the tank open, or partially open. Most individuals report feeling calm in the tanks, despite any of their fears.
Only proper swimwear is allowed to be worn in an isolation pod, although most people choose to wear nothing at all to enhance the experience of detachment and relaxation.
Our floatation therapy sessions last 1 hour. If you are interested in a longer session, please speak with a member of our staff.
We recommend booking in advance, due to the volume of clients. Please call our office at 317-449-2030 to schedule your float.
We currently only have one float pod in our facility, however, we would be more than happy to schedule back to back floats. We have a comfortable area to sit while you wait, where you can enjoy complimentary massage chairs and watch television; or if you’d like, feel free to ask our staff about our other services.
Yes. To get out of the tank, simply push the very light cover open.
While it is possible to drown in any amount of liquid, the high concentration of salt in float tanks keeps you from sinking. You must exert effort to turn onto your side or attempt to float upside down. Many people are able to sleep in the tanks safely.
Although our tanks are soundproof and lightproof, we have a ventilation system so air circulation is maintained.
The sanitation of our tanks are maintained in multiple ways. First, the large concentration of salt in the water keeps all forms of life from growing (including bacterium and other microbes). Further, the rich oxygen atmosphere in the tank is purified, and the entire tank is sterilized with high filtration system and UV light between every session.
