Do you know how we make the float rooms so silent? 🤔

We purpose built the float centre from scratch, and applied techniques used in recording studio construction, to make sure you have peace and quiet during your float.

Are you wondering what to do for Valentines? 🤔

Book a 'Bring a friend' float appointment, and you'll each float in your own separate room and state-of-the-art float pod. Emerge from your floats at the same time and meet in the relaxation lounge to bask together in the post-float bliss. Take your time, chill out on comfy chairs and enjoy a complimentary organic tea together, before heading on your way refreshed and recharged. This is a wonderful shared experience like no other.

Of course you don't have to bring someone, you could just treat yourself!

We currently have a small number of floats left on Valentines Day and the days around it, though we recommend booking yours asap to avoid disappointment. 💙

"Deeper levels of silent, warm, meditative relaxation..."

We love this testimonial from Carolyn about her long float!

We've got 2 lucky people enjoying long floats today.

Why choose a long float? 🤔

Has it ever felt like your float has flown by and is over too soon? The beauty of a long float is that it offers the chance to go deeper into relaxation and explore further. Of course you don't have to stay in the full 3 hours if you don't want to. As with any float you can get out whenever you like. It just gives you extra time and flexibility, it's up to you what you do with it!

Plus you can float for up to 3 hours for the price of 2! 😀

"My first ever float was 9 months postpartum. It was the first time in a while that I truly had time alone in complete silence..."

Spending time by yourself and just for you can be an extremely powerful thing when you have recently had a baby. 💙

Discover Sarah's float story in our latest blog...

Floating monthly has definitely changed my perspective on being a mum and this new version of myself for the better.

"It's weird! It's indescribable! It's amazing!" 🤩

We love this quote from a previous light day. The Roxiva light experience is a hard thing to describe, but they certainly expressed some of it!

Some have likened the experience to being inside a fractal kaleidoscope, or gliding through crystal rainbows of sacred geometry. You might see colours you cannot name, and glimpse beauty that only silence can speak of. You can find out more here:

It's maintenance day! 🔧

Every few weeks we close the float centre to carry out maintenance on the float pods and around the centre. This provides an ideal training opportunity for our wonderful float host Sarah, to find out more about how we keep the centre running smoothly. Here she's learning about how we change the 1 micron filters in the i-sopod pod engines, to help keep the salt water sparklingly clean and fresh.

We'll be back to open and running floats as usual from tomorrow, and we'd love to see you for your next float! 💙

You could earn free floats! 😍

Did you know we have a referral programme?

For every 5 new people you send our way to float, you'll earn a free float too. Plus it's a cool thing to point people to, so everyone's a winner! 😁

Just make sure they put your full name down in the ‘how did you hear about us’ box, when they fill in the form before their first float, for it to count towards your total.

Who have you told?

💙💙💙💙💙

"Left me feeling totally free and relaxed"

Thanks to Geoff for this lovely testimonial. We're looking forward to seeing you again next time!

Of course you can choose to keep the pod light on - you are in control - though we encourage you to experiment with floating in the darkness for the complete freedom. 💙
