Float in the Forest is a floatation centre in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire…. providing a wonderful floatation experience, with the unique benefit of emerging into a beautiful natural environment. Floatation is a relaxation treatment where you float on the surface of warm water saturated with Epsom salt, in a comfortable environment where sound and light are minimised. Imagine relaxing in a giant bathtub that you can sleep in with peace of mind.

We carefully curate your sensory input at Float in the Forest 🥰

Sound and lighting, fragrance and artwork are all carefully chosen to produce subtle changes in your nervous system, that feel effortless.

Your private float room is spacious and spotless, with clean lines and stainless fixtures, and it feels like you are the first person to grace it with your presence.

The Faith In Nature natural products are full to the brim. The big fluffy towels feel soft and welcoming. The rainfall shower bathes you in luxury. Your i-sopod float pod is sleek and modern, big and friendly, with a state of the art sanitation system. The whole room glows with a soft light of the colour you chose.

We nurture a space in the relaxation lounge to support your post-float bliss. This is a quiet comfortable place where you can dwell as long as you wish. Tactile delights like fluffy rugs, sprung chairs, comfy sofas, insulated floors, and a cosy peaceful vibe. Aesthetic pleasures of natural wood textures, clean minimalist design, and beautiful abstract art by local artists Monique Oliver and Sara Ulyatt. Tasty treats like Pukka organic teas, natural Hip Pop kombuchas, and local ice creams from Chase Farm.

There’s the freedom to express yourself in drawing, writing or colouring, and there’s books about floating should you wish to learn more. We’ve provided the opportunity for you to emerge gradually from your float, so that you can recognise the float as part of your life, and carry the benefits onwards and outwards more easily. 💙

Did you know we offer float packages and membership? 🧐

If you've floated before, you've probably noticed that the effects don't stop when you get out of the pod, many people feel the benefits for days afterwards.

Did you know that those benefits accumulate with each float? The first float is a process of discovery, people often relax into the second float more naturally, and the experience deepens with each repetition. You'll find that every float is different, yet each float gives you what you need at the time 💙

Depending on whether your preference is for simplicity, flexibility, or regular floats at the best value, we have an option for you.

People arrive at the idea of floating in different ways, and on different timelines. Some book quickly. Others read, watch, subscribe, and observe from a distance, sometimes for a long time. If you’re one of those people, you’re not unusual here.

Approaching a completely unfamiliar experience can feel uncomfortable. Maybe you haven't been to float with us yet, and you would like to understand more about what's involved, before you decide.

This blog is for you...

You don’t need to do anything. You don’t need to feel anything in particular. Everyone’s experience is unique and everyone’s experience is valid.

😎 Salt delivery day 😎

There's 550kg of Epsom salt dissolved in each of our float pods. Yes it really is a pallet load! We regularly top up the salt to keep up the buoyancy so you float effortlessly on the surface.

Now we'll hide this away along with the rest of the magic... 🥰
