Born out of a desire to bring peace of mind and relief in the body, Sukhino Float Center and Salt Cave is Southern Indiana's first float center AND first salt cave! We offer floatation therapy and halotherapy, both of which are centered around the therapeutic properties of salt, in its various forms. Float therapy involves stepping into our spacious float rooms and lying back into 10 inches of skin-temperature water that's mixed with over 1000 pounds of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate, MgSO4). You'll float effortlessly for up to 75 or 90 minutes, enjoying silence or music, colorful lights or pure darkness. Not only is floating great for relieving aches and pains in the body, it's a blissful break for your brain. To experience the benefits of halotherapy, we invite you to spend 45 minutes in our playful, peaceful salt cave. Breathe in the salty air while you rest in a treehouse cave environment like you've never seen. You'll gaze at the glowing Himalayan salt tile art wall, feel the texture of loose Himalayan salt on the floor, and breath deeply as the pharmaceutical grade salt (sodium chloride, NaCl). In Sanskrit, "Sukhino" means "centered in happiness and joy, free from suffering".

Let's congratulate Casey for joining the Salty Circle and signing our 50 visits plaque! When we asked Casey why she keeps coming to see us, she said it's because she "breathes better and feels calmer."

Thanks, Casey! 😍

It's true! When we allow ourselves to step away from the never ending to do list, our brains get a chance to process everything more easily. Answers seem to appear out of nowhere. Problems seem easier to solve.

If you're ready to take a break, come sit in our beautiful salt cave.

After your float, we highly recommend pausing for a few minutes in our lounge to reflect on your experience. Check in to see how your body and mind are feeling, especially compared to how you felt before your session. Write down your thoughts in our Salty Reflections journal, enjoy some tea, take a take some deep breaths, and bask in the glow of our salt lamps. When you're ready, you can go back out into the world.
But remember to take time to reflect.

Oooooh, this is a tough one! If you could slow down the aging process for just one - which would it be and why?

Warren Buffett once said, "The most important investment you can make is in yourself." We think that he was really on to something with that statement. Investing in yourself returns dividends in better mental and physical health, as well as ability to be present for others.

Take time for yourself to float, rest in the salt cave, or relax on an infrared mat. Now that's a good investment!

Relax and reconnect with yourself! Our salt cave is the perfect place for some alone-time. It's a distraction-free zone, perfect for self-reflection. And if you want to relax with a friend -- bring them along! We allow two guests at the same time in the salt cave (or more if you're part of the same party), so if you book with a friend, it will be just the two of you. Talk and catch up, or just relax.

According to the CDC, 35% of Americans don't get enough sleep each night. Does that sound like you?
Many people have found float therapy helps them reduce pain, relieve stress, and find better sleep quality.

We often hear our guests saying they wish they had more time to do all the things they want to do (like practicing more self care!), but if we think about it, we're really exchanging our time for other things, and sometimes that's money. So just for fun, which would you rather have more of - time or money?

09/10/2025

When you're here, you're relaxed. There's no stress. It's time for YOU.
And luckily you can bring some of those feel-good feelings home! Browse our retail items like salt lamps, essential oil inhalers, magnesium lotions, and relaxing drinks. Bring more peace into your home.

Maddie has been coming to see us for over 2 years now, and here she is signing the Sukhino Salty 50 plaque! She shared with us that she loves coming to Sukhino because it melts away the stress of the real world, and gives her time to relax and focus on herself -- even if it's just for 30 minutes. ☺️

We're grateful to be a stress-free place for you, Maddie!

Our Story

Some say we’re an odd couple. I (Kim) am a former leader in the corporate marketing and training world, yoga/meditation/mindfulness teacher, and Graham is a musician. I prefer the quiet world behind the scenes, and he loves the spotlight. I float to meditate and relieve anxiety, and he floats to relax the body. And we’re both honored and elated to bring this space to our community.

We never really dreamed of opening a business together, but the universe unfolded that path for us, and we joyfully accepted. (We actually met as co-workers at a restaurant that was known for it’s “sugar water” used to sweeten the tea, so it’s funny that we dedicate ourselves to a business that’s known for it’s salt water now!)

I heard about floating many years ago and became infatuated with it. At the time, we didn’t have any centers near us, but before I had even set foot in a float tank, I knew we would open a float center one day. I’d been teaching yoga and meditation for a few years, and I’d seen firsthand the transformation that occurs when people are provided the space to connect body, breath, and mind. Floating just seemed like a natural fit with my love for yoga and seeking release and relief from life’s stresses.

I grew up in a family where it’s a badge of honor to be overworked, exhausted, and often unfulfilled. I’ve watched almost every single family member battle chronic illnesses, disease, and injuries, and I knew I wanted to try something a bit different. I couldn’t escape that genetic work ethic, but I’ve channeled my hard work into serving others wherever I can. After learning about and seeing the sense of relief from those who have chronic pain, I was even more determined than ever to make the vision of providing float therapy a reality, but I let it simmer quietly in my head for about a year.

Many years ago, Graham and I were having a conversation, and he just sort of spit out, “So, have you ever thought about getting married?” And we were married in Jamaica two years later.

Things just sort of fit perfectly between the two of us. So, as we do, one day many years and two kids later, I asked if he wanted to open a float center together. He responded, “What the #$@&’s a float center?!” Three years later, we opened our doors. Since we met, we’ve always trusted that with a little hard work and lots of love, we’ll find our way. And now, he’s just as big an advocate of float therapy as I am.

So, what is floating?

Floating provides a unique opportunity to disconnect from the five senses and turn inward for a truly relaxing experience. You'll step into an enclosed tub with about 10 inches of water, warmed to your external body temperature. As you lie back into the solution, you'll float effortlessly with over 1000 pounds of salt to keep you afloat.

When you float with us, you can choose to keep the lights on or off, and listen to music or relish in silence, as you drift into a sense of comfort and stillness. (But please, try silence in the dark for a few minutes if you can. There’s a lot of magic to be had there.)

Why should you float?

Floating has many benefits, ranging from relaxation to targeting common health issues to an overall sense of wellbeing. As you float, your body will be fully supporting, alleviating any pressure points. For those with chronic pain, it can be a life changer. Further, the mental break you'll get by floating is unlike any other. It opens the gateway towards a single point of focus, allowing meditation or a calm mind to come with ease.

Why Sukhino?

My favorite mantra is Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu. It’s a Sanskrit mantra that means, “May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.” On its own, "Sukhino" means "centered in happiness and joy, free from suffering". We hope you'll join us to create that for yourself. Thank you for giving us the honor of holding this space for others in our community. It’s a responsibility we don’t take lightly, and we’re utterly grateful for it. Kim and Graham
