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 Stella Luna Counseling and Wellness Center 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.

🛁Float Rooms

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

From the reviews

Leah van dine has been an absolute dream of a therapist. I feel comfortable, I can cry, and I can talk about anything I need to, that’s bothering me. I feel she’s very compassionate, sympathetic and good at her job. She’s definitely in the right field! The salt soak? Is also phenomenal. Give it a try!!!

I have done counseling at Stella Luna and was glad when they recently added cool wellness services like the incredible FLOAT TANK!!! (Cannot say enough how transporting it is!) But last week, me and several friends made a day of it and spent hours giving ourselves some love.

I could not have asked for a better day! I went with our family and did it all. And wow was it needed... We did the float tank (A MUST!) got an amazing massage, spent some time in the salt room, and even got in the sauna. A fully day of services and relaxation.

★★★★★ — Chris, Apr 2023

I tried a float session and it was such a cool experience! It was very peaceful and almost felt like gravity disappeared. There was relaxing music, colorful lights, and all the essentials provided (towels, robe, earplugs, shampoo, conditioner, and soap), which made it really comfortable.

Your first float at Stella Luna Counseling 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.

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.
