We can't even count the number of times someone has come in skeptical of the float experience, or even grumpy because their friend or significant other is "making them do it", and then they come back out all smiley and blissful.

You can't escape the "post-float glow"!

It's important to remember that growth is not a linear process, and everyone's journey looks a little different. We often feel like we must hold ourselves to arbitrary standards based on what our peers our doing, what we think we should be doing, or because we read a compelling article in a magazine while waiting at the dentist office.

Wherever you are right now, is exactly where you're meant to be. There's never one final feeling of "Okay, I made it! This is everything I've been working towards!" because once you're there, you still have to keep going. Your goals evolve, they change, they grow. Just like you.

Growth is a gradual process of micro-decisions with no wrong answers. Next time you float with us, maybe take some time to reflect on your own journey and appreciate how far you've come.

One question we often hear is, "Why should I float? What does it do?" We could gush for a while about how many different ways float therapy can help you improve your wellbeing. But we'll just stick to a few of the top reasons for now. 😉

Good mornings start with good nights. 💤

Having a consistent time to go to sleep and to wake up supports your body's circadian rhythm, and promotes the restoration your body needs. ⏰⏰ Even if you can't get to bed at your regular time, keeping a consistent waking time has been shown to be key to getting better sleep overall. 🥰

Bonus tip: rather than using your phone as an alarm clock, use an old-school alarm. It reduces the temptation to check email or start scrolling in the morning!

Did you know that the magnesium sulfate we use in our float pods will nourish and heal your skin? Most guests notice how soft it is, even without moisturizing after a float. Yet another reason to love floating!

Let's go on a quick tour, showing you the two types of float tanks we have and how they differ from one another: float rooms vs float pods.

You are the reason we are here. We provide services for you to be able to come here and essentially, well - do nothing. We're experts in nothing, and we want to share that with you.

We know this sounds audacious, but we've learned that every float has the potential to change your life. We can't promise it, but it has helped so many people in our community to feel their absolute best.

For some, it's:
👍 pain-relieving
👍 rest-inducing
👍 anxiety-reducing
👍 serenity-producing
👍 stress-relieving
👍 spiritually-healing
👍 awe-inspiring
👍 overwhelm-reversing
👍 tension-melting
👍 baseline-resetting

If you've floated with us before, what is it for YOU?

When you wake up, your body has been without added water for at least 6-8 hours. Drinking a glass when you first wake up provides your body replacement fluids for all of the restorative work that took place while you were asleep. Did you know that it's estimated at 75% of us are chronically dehydrated?! Starting your day with a fresh glass of water is a step toward personally reversing that trend and giving your body what it needs to support you throughout the rest of your day.

We budget our money, but how often do we think about budgeting our energy? Thinking about how many things we give our attention to, we have to also factor in how we're replenishing that energy. If you use it all up, you feel depleted. So how do you start saving that energy?

One way is to come see us. We offer "active rest" to give your body the true rest it needs.

Floating is a powerful treat for your brain. Within a few minutes, most individuals will move from beta into alpha waves, feeling relaxed and at ease.

Those who remain still and allow themselves to rest will then move into theta waves, existing in that ethereal space between wakefulness and sleep.

And recent studies have shown that some individuals even reach delta waves when floating - but while they're still conscious! That's a pretty remarkable state of mind!

If this picture looks like you -- we get it. Many of us find ourselves hunched over computers, screens, or equipment, whether at home or at work. Give your spine a break!

When you're floating, it's not exactly like outer space where there's no gravity, but with the density of the epsom salt, you'll experience a "weightless" feeling, giving your body a chance to BE without the strains of gravity pushing down on you. This can relieve tension from the rigid body positions that often cause back pain!

Our Story

Greg has been involved in the health and wellness industry since 2007. While in school for nutrition, working in the wellness department of his community grocery co-op and learning everything he could about being as self-sufficient as possible on farm he was renting, his stress levels were becoming difficult to manage. He discovered float therapy back in 2011, and after hearing about the physical and mental benefits, he had to give it a try. He drove down to what was then the closest float center in the area, a place in Chicago that has offered floating since the early 1980's. That first float changed everything. It was like a complete physical and mental reset. For the next 3 years he made the 5 hour round-trip every few months to float for that reset of body and mind. Eventually, he grew tired of trying to convince friends to open up a place in Madison, and he decided that he would be the one to provide the revolutionary tool to his community.
