Water & cleaning at True REST Float Spa Chico
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 Chico's own information: down to a 5-micron filter, UV sterilization, ozone, hydrogen peroxide.

What floaters say
“I was lead into a room where I had my own float pod (Room was extremely clean) and had a 60 min float!”
“Katy walked me through the entire process as it was my first time floating, she answered all my questions and just over all made me comfortable.”
“I knew it would give me a moment of peace but I never expected how unbelievably relaxing it really is!”
“I chose to float because of some pain that I had in my back and also to help with mental health.”
“They never rush their customers and they do their utmost to ensure that every single person who floats with them, is as comfortable as physically possible.”
“Austin and her mother/owner Veronica are the sweetest ladies, after meeting them just once, I felt like I have known them forever.”
From the reviews
Last Sunday was my first time ever doing a float. I had been wanting to try this for quite awhile and so glad i finally did. It was a fantastic experience! The facility was very clean and comfortable. The staff was great, especially Veronica!
Had my first float yesterday. Rachel was so gracious. I was quite nervous about the pod. Having chronic pain for over 25 years. She put me at ease right away. Showed me the facility. The float was so exceptionally restful. Your own private shower. With shampoo and body wash that feels wonderful.
We went for a float, and it was fantastic. Very, very clean. I was a bit concerned because I have mild claustrophobia, but the pod actually felt expansive. You can control the lights (different colors, or blackout), and you can close the door all the way or crack it open.
Such an amazing experience! It was my first time floating and they made me feel super prepared and comfortable. They were super kind and welcoming people and I’m excited for my monthly float membership! With the membership there is all sorts of great deal and I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase.
Your first float at True REST Float Spa Chico
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.
