What floaters say
“The float tank and ante room are lovely, clean, and appropriately appointed (although I’d prefer 2 towels instead of 1 — not worth a whole star.”
“It was my friend’s very first time using the float tank and he was blown away at how relaxing the experience was.”
“I had a life altering experience, that float not only relaxed my body for the entirety of the float but carried over for the majority of the day.”
“All staff at Ripple Float ensured we were comfortable, hydrated with their many free selections of tea, water and kombucha (available for purchase).”
“All of the staff were friendly and helpful with making my first float session a breeze.”
“We both suffer from anxiety and ptsd and we're unsure how we would do in isolation tank.”
From the reviews
I am expecting my first child and my coworkers got my husband and I a gift card for a tandem float. I have too much anxiety and that just was not for me so I called Ripple and talked to Stephen and he said I could switch to something else which I really appreciated.
Such a beautiful, clean, and zen environment. My friend and I were greeted by Stephen, and he explained all the details of the float tanks. Stephen was very professional, friendly, and made us very comfortable.
We had a great first time visit to Ripple Float and Wellness! My husband and I decided to book a float and sauna package for our anniversary on Monday and it was such a relaxing and unique experience. Stephen was incredibly friendly, helpful and it was good vibes all around at this place.
Went to float with my wife tandem and was wonderful and relaxing. We both suffer from anxiety and ptsd and we're unsure how we would do in isolation tank. With in 5 mins we were amazed with the experience. Place was very clean , staff, Jade was very friendly and showed us what we needed.
Your first float at Ripple Float and Wellness Center
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.
