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 Reboot 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.

🥚Float Pods

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

From the reviews

I absolutely love the float tank . The staff are helpful but not intrusive, the rooms are clean and everything you need is provided. I have rhuematoid arthritis and this really helped with the pain both physically and mentally. If you haven't tried it I highly recommend giving it a try. It's a great experience.

The location is very easy to find, the spa is clean and inviting, the staff is super helpful and answer all questions. As someone who struggles with anxiety on top of joint issues, this spa is heaven sent! I love being able to be weightless and able to zone out in peace while all my worries fade away.

★★★★★ — Lauren, Jun 2024

This was my first experience in a float/sensory tub and it was a very gentle, trauma informed approach that allows you to control how much light or darkness you want, open or closed pod, music or silence. I was impressed by the professional staff and immaculately clean space. Plus street parking was easy.

★★★★★ — Canada, Aug 2022

I recently visited Reboot Spa and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Note: this was my first flotation therapy experience. The rooms were comfortable, clean and at the perfect temperature. The float tank was larger than I imagine, which was a good thing. I would definitely go back and recommend to others.

Your first float at Reboot 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.
