Claustrophobia is the number one misconception about floating in a pod. You CAN float with the lid open! Many people who initially express a fear of small spaces feel much better once they know they control the entire process, including: • Stopping at any time • Floating with the pod lights on or off • Opening and closing the pod lid • Floating with or without music Let us know how you like to float so that it can be your own unique experience!

Yes! This is very popular for pregnant Mum’s-to-be! Research suggests that floating is good for you and the baby. Especially in later stages of pregnancy.

We recommend against floating during the first trimester or past 38 weeks, and as with most activities, we do recommend checking with your doctor first. Pregnancy in the late stage is especially overbearing on the back muscles, and can restrict the blood flow to the placenta, so lying on your back with that little miracle inside of you may not be the best way to float for you.

Unfortunately hair dyes and spray-on tans can run into the salt solution. This can damage our tanks, and ruin your hair. We would suggest not floating within a week of having your hair dyed OR having a spray-on tan.

Our specially designed filters are capable of screening the water down to as little as 1 micron (100th the size of a hair). The entire contents of the tank are flushed through ultra violet rays and filtered 3-5 times between every customer. Fresh water is added daily to top up the pods and the Salt Concentration alone will kill almost everything! Regular disinfection cycles do the rest!
