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 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

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'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

I voluntarily spent an hour in a giant saltwater pod with my own thoughts… and somehow survived. 😏✨ Yesterday we finally cashed in a birthday gift that Bigg gave me and I have to say… what an incredible experience.

★★★★★ — Michele, Jun 2026

Everything was amazing. The facility is peaceful and inviting, the staff is warm and friendly. Floating is such an interesting and unique experience. It was more relaxing than a spa day with a 1 hour massage. Something about being weightless in a quiet, dark place is like a factory reset for your brain.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, May 2026

If you are looking to unplug from the world and relax on a level you’ve never experienced, then give True Rest Float Spa an hour of your day. The Robertson’s are very kind people. The rooms are always very neat and clean. Words cannot describe how peaceful and relaxing it is to float.

★★★★★ — Justin, May 2025

I was gifted two floats so my friend and I booked a time where we could both float (seperate pods of course). We weren't sure what to expect going in, but knew we both needed a lil "reset" in life. LET ME TELL YOU...

Your first float at True REST Float Spa

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.
