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

From the reviews
Awesome experience! The staff was amazing, very friendly and extremely helpful. The facility was modern and very clean. Social distancing and Covid cleaning protocols were strictly followed. The prices and packages offered were affordable and generous. I will definitely return for another float soon.
I visited here to soothe some aching muscles. I was definitely more relaxed and less sore after my visit. It also promotes better sleep at night. I enjoy floating!
First time doing float therapy and it was fantastic! Takes some getting used to but my husband and I did this as a day date getaway and we both stayed in the full 60 minutes. The staff has been so wonderful, helpful and kind. The environment is very calming. We definitely would love to come back and highly recommend!

Your first float at True REST Float Spa - South Hills
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.
