I was first introduced to floating by a friend of mine for the purposes of meditation and relaxation. It took me at least 3 sessions to get used to slowing my mind down enough to see benefits from the treatment. Then I took a year off from doing them because, well, they are somewhat pricey.
Fast forward a year, and I am in a lot of pain from working on a computer 60-80 hours a week from my lower cervical disks, down my shoulders, arms, and wrists. I know massage doesn't work that great and I noticed this location opened very close to my home so I made an appointment.
I love that they will play your choice of music, and I have them change the music when my time is up so I wake up (because I normally fall asleep). This facility is very clean, well staffed and is actually affordable at 1 float a month for $60. You can earn points toward purchasing extra floats by booking again same day and referrals.
Its up to you whether you leave the LED lights on or go in complete darkness. You can also close the hatch, or partially crack it open (like I do because I am claustrophobic but it will get chilly due to the drafts in the room). Music is also an option, the staff does a lot to make it a relaxing experience for you.
