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 True REST Float Spa • Cary runs, drawn from their own site and reviews.

🥚Float Pods

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

Water & cleaning at True REST Float Spa • Cary

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 True REST Float Spa • Cary's own information: down to a 5-micron filter, UV sterilization, ozone, hydrogen peroxide.

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.

From the reviews

This was any first time experiencing Float therapy. Daniel was super professional, calm, kind, and easy to communicate with. The facility was clean, pure, and calming. The experience itself was amazing. I needed every bit to check out of life’s reality and call my mind, body, and soul.

★★★★★ — Tini, Nov 2024

This place was the most amazing relaxing place that I have experienced. I felt like I was floating on a cloud while I was in the tranquility pod. Your body is cradled in 100 lbs of Epsom salt and water. While I was in the pod I got a chance to let go for awhile and meditate on what my projected goals are in the future.

★★★★★ — Tarshia, Jul 2020

This was my first float and it was amazing and relaxing. The facility was clean and had all supplies needed.. Shower shoes, towels, soap, deodorant, etc. The pod was very clean. You had the option of music or no music. The next float you select your own. Each pad had the option of soft light or darkness.

★★★★★ — Rena', Aug 2025

This is my first visit. I am not a swimmer, and I’m not a very good floater, yet.! But I did sit and meditate and somewhat did float partially to the music, the surroundings, the water temperature, the professional staff was helpful certainly was a great experience. Something that I want to do again!

Your first float at True REST Float Spa • Cary

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.
