I had my first float today and I am already looking forward to going back!
I arrived early to fill out paperwork and watch a quick, 6 minute intro video then Rachael thoroughly explained everything about the pod, including how to change light colors, how to position one's self in the water and how to turn music and/or lights on/off.
She left me alone, I took a quick shower then made my way into the pod. I sat down, a bit perplexed how I was supposed to float but as soon as I stretched my legs out and laid back, I was floating!
I personally liked having the little noodle under my neck to support my head but it might not be ideal for everyone.
I liked the music, I think it was "Whale Songs" but if it wasn't, it could have been because that's what it reminded me off. Very calming to listen to.
My mind drifted on its own but I didn't fall asleep.
My time passed too quickly. My feet felt the filter turn on and start moving the water which is the signal that float time is over.
I got out carefully and made my way back to the shower. I wished I had a second towel so I didn't have to use my damp one from before my float but it was a minor thing. Next time I'll know to ask for a second towel.
I had started my appointment with some issues. A headache in its second day, foot issues from standing at my job, stomach issues and after my float it was all gone. Really.
Seeing how I personally felt before and after my float is why I am looking forward to returning. I am a fan!
