The tanks & rooms here

The vessel type is the single biggest thing to get right — especially if enclosed spaces make you uneasy. Here's what Gravity Wellness Spa runs, drawn from their own site and reviews.

🌊Open float (no lid)

No lid to close over you — the answer for anyone who feels boxed in. Open pools, open rooms, or pods whose door stays open.

All open (no-lid) float centers →

🥚Float Pods

The classic enclosed capsule with a hinged lid. Deepest sensory deprivation; you lie down and pull the lid to.

All centers with float pods →

🛁Float Rooms

The room itself is the vessel: no hatch, walk straight in. Great for claustrophobia and easier access.

💧Open Float Pools

A room-sized open pool of salt water. Zero enclosure, easiest for two, most spacious of all.

Water & cleaning at Gravity Wellness Spa

Sanitation is the thing seasoned floaters care about most, and most directories never show it. Between every float, the salt water should be pumped through fine filtration and disinfected — salt alone is not enough. From Gravity Wellness Spa's own information: filters the full tank 3× between floats, UV sterilization.

The float-industry standard is turning the entire volume of water over at least three times between sessions through a 1–10 micron filter, paired with UV and/or hydrogen peroxide or ozone. If a center doesn't publish its process, it's fair to ask.

Upon arrival we were immediately greeted by the front desk, & ready for our float within a few mins. They kept on asking Nessa it must be your specially special day, thinking it was for my partner. lo & behold, it’s ya boi’s bday gift! Thank you, kindly :) Excellent service & hospitality from the whole staff.

★★★★★ — Aaron, May 2024

Decided to give myself a self-care day. I did the express float and an hour long facial. The atmosphere is super relaxing, the staff are very kind and helpful! I had never used a float therapy pool before, and it was such an interesting, peaceful experience.

★★★★★ — Leslie, Feb 2024

I have done the float tank and massage twice. I recommend them both to feel relaxed and replenished. The float tank is floating on salt water and either listening to calming music or in silence. Feels like floating through space with the lights off and looking up at the "stars"!

★★★★★ — Frank, Aug 2024

Love the salt float, very relaxing, make sure to wear the ear plugs, helps keep your ears unclogged. The massages are great and relaxing, the aroma therapy is so nice. They use a lot of oil which helps make things smoother. I will be coming back here many times.

Your first float at Gravity Wellness Spa

Never floated before? Almost no one has their first time, and a good center expects it. Here's what to know. What it is: you float effortlessly in about ten inches of skin-temperature water saturated with around 1,000 lbs of Epsom salt — so dense you cannot sink. In the dark and quiet, with no light, sound, or gravity to react to, your nervous system downshifts. Before you come: don't shave or wax for a day beforehand (salt stings fresh cuts — they'll have barrier ointment if you nick yourself), skip caffeine, eat a light meal an hour or two before, and remove contacts. If you colored your hair recently, wait a few days. In the tank: shower first, put earplugs in before you get wet, and keep a fresh-water spray bottle within reach for salt in the eyes. You can leave the light or music on until you settle, then turn them off from inside. Hold your arms out for the first 20–30 seconds to stop bobbing, then let go. It takes a few tries — the first 20 minutes are usually your mind winding down. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to shower and get oriented.

Floating isn't for everyone: skip it with epilepsy, kidney disease, uncontrolled heart conditions, open wounds, a contagious condition, or in the first trimester of pregnancy without your doctor's OK. If in doubt, ask the center and check with a physician — this is general information, not medical advice.
