Netflix vs Floating - A 2022 study compared the effects on anxiety between people who floated, and those who just watched a relaxing documentary ππ§
Not only did it help reduce anxiety and increase feelings of serenity, it was even more pronounced in people who were clinically diagnosed with anxiety disorders! π
Open all long weekend regular hours! ππ§
Get some deep restoration to start off your September with good energy! ππ
Quieting the mind is a challenging practice. But the better you get at it, the more you get out of it π§ββοΈπ―
Learn to tame your nervous system instead of letting it dictate your daily experience of emotions π
When you've finally got your nervous system to chill out your stress response and you come back to a bombardment of stimulation π³π¬
When your body is perfectly supported but also able to move through the surface, that's when your joints and muscles can move exactly into the position it wants to be in to be at total rest π§π
No energy used to keep posture, no solid surface beneath you molding you into an unnatural position π―
Our referral program makes it a win-win so you can earn floats while giving your friends a special first-time rate π―
An offer not available to the uninitiated...but you are initiated π¦
Let your mind wander...eventually it'll get tired and settle down π
But if you want to have something to concentrate on, feel free to ask us to help you plug in your phone to play your own music or meditation track while you float! π΅
When you realize if it wasn't going to matter a year from now, it didn't really matter in the first place πππ
When you're in a deep, rested state, that's when all your experiences and knowledge connect together in different ways not possible when you're fully conscious π§
That's what allows novelty, insight and spontaneous ideas to spring forth for problems you've been dealing with! π‘
Trying to convince your friend who's never floated ππΎ
Open regular hours all long weekend! π¦
Whether you want a recovery day after the weekend or to set yourself up for the week ahead, book a float online or give us a call! β
The float experience starts well before the float and continues long after. Some pre-float tips to improve your experience:
Avoid caffeine β
Don't rush yourself πββοΈ
Minimize phone usage π΄
Gentle stretching or yoga π§ββοΈ
Listening to soothing music π΅
Cool down for a float like you would warm up for a workout!

Boosts Immunity πΊοΈ

Reduces Anxiety Disorders π§ββοΈ
Did I just describe the benefits of slow breathing or floating? π¦
They also complement each other massively, because the float tank allows you to lie down while the diaphragm muscles in your back can fully expand through the water surface, resulting in a deeper, slower breath π§
There's a learning curve to relaxation in your first float, especially when your body has never been in such a buoyant water environment π¦
Your neck has never been able to fully release and still keep your head above water, so it takes a bit of practice to release that tension π
But once you do, you'll experience a weightlessness that you've never felt before β΅
Relaxing in an environment with no perceived threats that could injure us allows the TONE to decrease in our nervous system π
That tone is what controls rigidity or flexibility. And by signalling to our body that certain ranges of motion are 'safe' again, that's what gives us back full expression of our bodies πͺ
Open a new tab, mark another message un-opened, remind yourself to think about thing later...and then later never comes to deal with those unfinished thoughts π§
Please don't make me go back out into the world π
Interoception - the phenomenon of becoming acutely aware of the sensations in your body including your heartbeat, breathing, muscle tension, etc. π§
Which is more easily done in a float when you're not being distracted by the news or millions of other of external inputs π΄
When you go in expecting to just relieve sore muscles and come out with the mental clarity on how to fulfill your life potential ππ
Your joints and lower back do so much work carrying you around all day ποΈββοΈ
Let the buoyancy of 1000 lbs do that for 90 minutes or more. You'll be surprised at the pain and tension you didn't even notice you had! ππ
The float is most powerful when ALL the environmental factors work together to produce a zero stimulus experience ππ
Did you know we have a referral program? Every 3rd one credits you a float, and any first timers you bring can get $20 off their first float or package! π
We all have that one person in our life we know could use some time away from everything and everyone for once π
Sometimes your muscles and joints just need a break from gravity and carrying you around all day πββοΈ
Joint pain and inflammation have a hard time existing in a float when the lack of gravity takes the weight of your entire body off your knees, hips and ankles π¦΅π
Claustrophobia comes from not knowing if you can leave anytime. Which you can πͺπ
But having the option for lighting and music as well as a spacious tank environment with a door that opens anytime makes it easier to acclimate and relax once you're inside! π΄
When that functional-rest connectivity state hits and your sense of time shuts off π«β°
We're open all long weekend! If you need to recover from the weekend or get yourself ready for the week ahead then book online or send us a message! π¨π¦π
Time away from your phone and all sources of external stimulation makes everything more sensitive and novel to you afterwards π΅π
Even the simplest thing like a walk outside becomes more vibrant. The sights, the sounds, the feeling of sunshine...πΆββοΈβοΈ

Our Story
As with many before, it only took one float to get us hooked. We immediately knew this was a unique experience that we wanted to share with others. After a few long walks in the forest, several coffee-shop meetings, a trip to the float conference in Portland, and some floats along the way, we began visualizing our ideal float centre. Striving to share floating with as many people as possible, we found that Burlington (our home town), would be the perfect place to set up shop.
We embarked on our first "real world" entrepreneurial journey, and remained driven by the belief that floating is an excellent tool for personal wellness. Whether it be after a workout, or a stressful day, there wasn't anything quite like the warm, cozy feeling of laying down weightless in a tank. It is an amazingly simple yet powerful tool, with the ability to enhance anyone's life. Whether you use it for personal development, physiological benefits, psychological benefits, or a combination of sorts, we believe floating has the ability to positively impact and deeply aid anyone who sets forth into the presence of complete nothingness...
A float tank (also known as sensory deprivation tank or isolation tank) is like an enclosed bathtub with a door that never locks, filled with a water solution saturated by 1000 lbs of Epsom salt. More buoyant than the Dead Sea, you effortlessly float inside the tank which is body temperature-regulated, soundproof and lightproof to reduce all sensory input. The purpose of floating in a warm, quiet and dark environment? To give your body and mind the reaction to a lack of external stimulation - complete rest.
The deep relaxation achieved through floating allows the body to recover from stress by reducing stress-related hormones like cortisol. It relieves you of chronic pain. Blood flows more efficiently and uninterrupted throughout your muscle tissue. Endorphins are the βfeel-goodβ chemicals that are naturally released, similar to when exercising. Brain-wave activity is lowered to the theta state which usually takes people years to achieve through meditation - but floating gets you there effortlessly!
