How to Prepare and What to Expect

  • Make sure to hydrate and have a light snack. That way your tummy won’t be grumbling and distract you from the tranquility of the float.

  • DO NOT shave before entering the pod. You will feel the burn if you do.

  • Start by arriving a few minutes early to sit and relax in the waiting area. You want to enter the space with a sense of calm.

  • Choose your sound preferences. We have a menu of float enhancements that can be played during your float. You can turn it off anytime during the session.

  • Shower the day off before you enter to pod, this will help to keep our pod clean. We ask that you remove any oils, lotions, perfumes, deodorants, etc. to reduce the strain on the filters. 

  • You may choose to wear ear plugs or not, they are provided in the space. If you choose not to, make sure to rinse your ears out post-float, as salt can accumulate in your ear canal.

  • You may also choose to don a swim cap, also provided, to protect your hair or keep it dry.

  • If you have nay nicks or cuts you may apply some Vaseline or A&D ointment to those areas to prevent them from stinging.

  • Remember this is SUPER salty water. Try not to touch your face as it will burn if it gets into your eyes and this will ruin the experience. We do have a spray bottle with fresh water and a washcloth next to the tank should you get salt water on your face.

  • Lay back and relax. Let the saltwater do the work. Listen to the amazing float enhancements to drift you into an altered state of consciousness, or even fall asleep.

  • Time is up when the music stops or when the filter kicks on. The filter makes the water swirl around like a hot tub. Make sure there are no ear plugs, washcloths, or swim caps in the pod when exiting.

  • Get up slowly and remember the water in your hair or on your head is salty to try to avoid getting it in your eyes.

  • Hop in the shower and use the lovely products from Tippy Creek or anything you may have brought from home. Make sure to rinse in your ears good if you did not wear ear plugs.

  • Have a cup of tea and a snack in the post float lounge if you would like.

  • Safe travels to your next destination as you will feel very relaxed and rejuvenated.
