This spa is unique and amazing. It's very luxurious and impeccably clean. I love that each room has its own shower. The experience of floating itself is unusual but very relaxing. It took me some time to get situated on my first float. My body felt amazing afterwards. The owners are also incredibly welcoming and friendly. Overall a great experience that I would highly recommend. read more

This was my second visit and I definitely unwound as I drifted in & out of sleep. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

SOULEX float spa - Float Spa Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

These days' meditation and reflection have both been a major part of my life. After my 2nd lay off during covid - I thought I would try something different. I was nervous but looking to connect with myself and take my meditation, reflection and healing to another level. In my search for meditation and spa services I found SoulEx DC. I went to their website, and it was easy to navigate which I love! They even have a 1st time float special! I was looking to treat myself and discount and reflect - and thought why not. When I walked in - I was greeted by the owner and asked to wash my hands at a portable sink or use hand sanitizer. After that, I was taken to my Spa Room, where I was going to float for 1 whole hour. A little nervous but also excited. The SouldEx Employee walked me through the service and amenities in the room. What I loved most was that there were individual showers in each Spa Room. The depravation tank which is actually like a cocoon fills up rather quick under 10 minutes which is just enough time for you to get ready to enter. I had a lite music playlist play during my float which only added to the total relaxation I was experiencing. When people ask me to describe it - It is warm and cozy. There is more than enough room to stretch out. I opted to fold my arms like an "X" on my chest which in my opinion only added to my reflection and meditation. I went with the flow during my experience and just let my body completely relax into the experience. This was the best experience I have had in 2020 - I was able to completely detach from the world. I plan to add this into my monthly - or bi-monthly self-care routine. read more

I will get right to it. Yes, I recommend float therapy, and, I definitely recommend float therapy at Soulex Float Spa. The space is clean, light and bright at the entry, and very inviting. From my first phone call inquiry the staff was knowledgeable, patient with all my questions, and accommodating with my special concerns. I suggest you read their very informative and well-designed website, too. Besides the beautiful futuristic float pods, Soulex has many amenities for use after the float: plush bathrobe, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer, health and beauty aids, and towels. Soulex carries its environmentally conscious and health-consciousness through by keeping harsh smells and chemicals to a minimum by supplying hypo-allergenic or organic or essential oil products. To slowly come back into the "real world" on offer, in the tea room, is complementary tea and water to re-hydrate. I have had 3 float sessions, and have received positives benefits for my mind and body. If you have information overload or are stressed or your body is tense and achy or you just need an escape so you can revive-- float therapy is for you. Weightlessness + sensory deprivation = no distractions that make it easy to relax, and have thoughts dissipate. At my first float session it certainly was odd to feel nothing, I was not even aware of my own body, yet, it was amazing to feel nothing at all. At one point, to check into reality, I wiggled my wrist to feel something--the water flowing around my wrist. After a float, I come out feeling like I've been reformatted or wiped clean-- liked a clean slate. Also, I physically feel lighter, my brain feels unheavy, and, unburdened. I am relaxed, I hold no tension anywhere. I'm energized to get things done but in a calmer, relaxed and happier mode. Floating is pricey but on par with other types of health bodywork (proper massage therapy, reiki, etc.), if you buy the multi-session packages. For your first float try to take advantage of introductory pricing offers, again making this whole body therapy affordable. When I left the Quiet Zone of my last float session, one of the owners greeted me and asked, "How was your session?" In my euphoric, floaty state I uttered, "Fantastic, like a brain massage." read more

SOULEX float spa - Float Spa Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I visited Soulex float spa today for the first time and I loved it! The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. She gave me a quick yet thorough orientation and then I got started! I closed my pod completely and enjoyed the darkness and silence as I floated my cares away! It was very relaxing and I can't wait to go again. As a busy nurse this was the perfect escape! I've already told my coworkers, friends, and family about this gem. I do wish the water was slightly warmer but overall this experience exceeded my expectations! read more

Came here because I had heard about floating years ago!!!! Very nice place that shows you the ropes!!! I considered it more of a spa experience than a spiritual/meditative one. Recommended as something to try and experience for sure. read more

Found this on yelp. I've never done float therapy/ sensory deprivation therapy before but I decided to give it a shot after reading the reviews. The pics and reviews don't do it enough justice. This place was amazing from the moment you walk in. Its very clean and the vibe is very tranquil. The rooms were really cool and the pod was even better. Initially i thought 60 mins would be really long but by the end, I wish I did 90 mins at least. Really relaxing. I haven't felt this stress/tension free in a long time. I also see how this would benefit folks with pain issues. Will definitely recommend this place. 5 stars. I'll be back on a monthly basis at the very least. read more

The facilities are clean, the staff friendly, and the float rooms are well-appointed. The pods are somewhat small if you're looking to spread out and happen to be more that 5'10, but still get the job done. I'd overwhelmingly recommend SOULEX Float for first-timers and float fanatics. read more

I had a great time for my first float ever. Awesome atmosphere, very clean, and friendly staff. I only have two areas for improvement - the tank I was in made a consistent humming sound throughout the entire hour. I'm not sure if there's a motor but it was enough to keep it from being sound proof. I could also hear someone vacuuming on the floor above. So, needs better sound proofing. Also, given this was my first float, the gentleman brought me to the room to explain how the tank works and he closed the door behind us while he was explaining. Probably nothing he would think about but as a woman, I immediately felt uncomfortable in a closed private room with a strange man. I recommend keeping the door open for the demonstration part or it could get you in BIG trouble. Overall I would definitely try it again. read more

This was an awesome experience. Such a beautiful facility, welcoming staff and great fliat pods. 10 out of 10, couldn't recommend more if you need some de-stressing while in DC. read more

In the fast pace life that is DC it's nice to have an option like this to relax. Staff is amazing and walk you through the whole process. Upon entering you are greeted with a warm smile and some tea. Then you are taken in for a briefing about your experience. We opted for individual tubs which was awesome. The room gets dark and the lights from the tub and music start going. To be honest it was a bit weird how dark/quiet it gets. The water was warm, but I was expecting hot hot water. It wasn't hard to adjust. I would suggest the float pillow which I needed it when I started knodding off. Warning, the salt water does sting alittle, but wasn't too bad. Overall, very unique and great overall experience. read more

SOULEX... just Wow. First time there due to a work game I won, got 2 sessions. I was hesitant at first... but the moment you walk in, you just feel relaxed after a long day in the office or after all the DC traffic. The spa is calm, soothing and on point. The lighting is calming. When you step in, it does take a few moments to adjust to the feeling of weightlessness due to the salt levels (you float in salt water) and when you decide to let go... you will reap the rewards. Aches and pain will go away. Your head will stop hurting and spinning from your daily stress. The only bad thing... you'll get hooked. And you'll want to come back. I still have one session left... but already looking at the packages. Definite must go. read more

My cousin took me here for my birthday. We both love spa treatments but wanted to try something different. Once I did more research into what float therapy actually was I was sold! The whole experience was amazing. The staff was very friendly and was able to explain the process from beginning to end and answer any questions we had. I'm sure each persons experience will be a little different but mine was a calming one. read more

I work a couple of blocks from SOULEX Float Spa, and saw the "coming soon" signs a few times on my lunch breaks. When they opened up, I decided to immediately get a pass to check it out. My experience. The staff there are super professional, accommodating and courteous. There are 4 float rooms. The first 3 have float pods in them, and the 4th one has a large float tub, presumably to accommodate larger bodies or people who are claustrophobic. When you arrive, you take off your shoes and put them in a little cubby, and then you are given a pair of slippers. The staff person then leads you to your room, which is private. Your float pod is in there, as well as a shower with shampoo, conditioner, and body soap, a towel, a shower cap, ear plugs, and some non-petroleum ointment for any spots that might be sensitive to the float water. The pod takes about 10 minutes to fill. While you wait, you can use the bathroom down the hall, and you are also required to take a shower. Important to know is that the water in the pod is super saturated with Epsom salt, aka magnesium chloride. This saturation makes the water very bouyant, which is what gives you the float experience. This also means you don't want the water in your eyes, nose or mouth, and that if you have any cuts or abrasions or have just shaved your legs, it will sting a bit. The water is also only a couple of degrees warmer than body temperature. The idea is that the combination of the dark room (the lights go out automatically and are on a motion sensor) the body-temperature water, the ear plugs, and the floating sensation will be supremely relaxing because your senses will be mostly not getting any input. The shower is great. It has a ceiling-mounted head and also a hand sprayer. One thing to note though is that the temperature settings are very high, so you have to turn it down cooler than you think to get a not-too-hot shower. And you don't want your shower to be too hot, otherwise, the water in the float pod will feel comparatively cold. The pod is outfitted with LED lights and sound. You have the option in the pod of leaving the LED lights on, having them fade out during the first few minutes of the float. There's also an emergency call button that is illuminated, but I recommend if you want full dark asking them to turn it off. It's not hard to find. You can also have sound on at the beginning or have it turn off in the first few minutes of the float. There is also some way to pipe your own custom soundtrack into the pod, but when the attendant and I tried to do it we did not have a cable that could work with my phone. Must try again because I think doing a guided meditation or yoga nidra in a float pod would be awesome. You are in control of everything. You can close the pod, leave it open, get out any time. The times that I have been I have not always taken up the whole hour float time. You can apparently book for a half-hour float too, and that might be nice to try. When you're all done, you shower off again (that water is super salty remember! It will drip from your hair into your eyes if you don't wash it out). You then get dressed and there is a table down the hall where you can dry and style your hair and put on makeup if you want to (I recommend bringing some makeup and basic toiletries with you since you will get fully wet between the pod and the showers.) I found the experience really really relaxing and peaceful. If you've never tried something like this, this facility is great, well-run, and safe. If you find water and sensory-deprivation relaxing (rather than stressful) you will probably love this. I have been more than once at this point and am looking forward to going again. I have also recommended it to many friends and loved ones. The price point is a bit high for a single, non-promotional float. I purchased a promotional pack of 3 floats that came out to about $75 per float. It looks like you can't get that price anymore - the cheapest it gets is $79 per float if you buy a pack of 10. I'd be interested to see how their pricing shifts as their business matures. A thing I'd be interested in is some kind of annual membership program where you buy a membership and then get discounted floats. We shall see. read more

The owner is actually quite nice, but at the end of the day, it's about the experience in the pods and the time you're there. I purchased a three pack. The first one was good. Timely start, pod ambiance, sound, lights all were running perfectly, and the facilities were fine. The front desk person was okay. The second time was awful. I came out more frustrated than when I came in. I had to wait 20 mins after my appointment time. They run behind, that happens. But during my session, the lights and sound never went off and so the hour float was just not relaxing and a waste of my money. The third time, I waited 10 mins, the float was fine, but the shower had no hot water. Come to find out upon leaving, that when I did my pre-soak shower, I didn't press the button completely down to turn it off, hence there was NO HOT WATER. They tell me, "we were going to turn it off... but didn't". Why not? Obviously, that is never anyone's intent to leave the water running. That was an inadvertent mistake on my part, but if they knew about it and were thinking about correcting it, why didn't they? I know it's not the first time it's happened to a patron here. So after floating, it was a very cold shower. So the relaxation from float quickly dissipated with not being able to get a warm shower. The worst part was having them tell me that they knew it was going to happen, thought about fixing it, but didn't. I do NOT recommend this place. Try Hope Floats in Bethesda for a consistent experience. If you're out in Gainsville area, go to Mystic Flow Wellness Center. read more

First, the address is a little misleading, it is actually on the 11th street side between the Subway restaurant and the nail shop. The facilities are clean and contemporary. The staff are very helpful and personable. I booked room 4 without knowing that it was going to be more of a hot tub style float rather than a pod. The staff made sure I would be okay with it, and not knowing any better I agreed to try it. For me it was not as relaxing as I hoped. The large size - which I'm sure has it's benefit's for some - made it feel like I was constantly "ping-ponging" between the sides meaning I had to spend a lot of time trying to avoid that. That leads me to something that I think the spa could do better at... the overhead, bright white lights, are motion controlled, so as long as you are not moving around too much it's fine. But if you are trying to keep yourself steady they came on a few times, and they are bright when you have been laying in total darkness for a time! I don't know if it would be different in a pod, but I was also slightly uncomfortable with the temperature in the room since all of my exposed skin was much cooler than what was under water. Overall, this was a great experience. Most of what I wrote above were just my personal experience and preferences, other than the overhead lights. I definitely recommend this spa. As for the benefits of floating, I'll have to go back and try the pods before commenting on that. read more

So this has only been open for 5 months. My massage therapist recommended it. So I looked it up and arranged to do a float spa. Consists of a pod or small pool, your choice, and you float for an hour. At first I thought how would I pass the time but once you are in the pod solitude takes over. Your are completely relaxed and afloat. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommend you at least try it once. You won't regret it. read more

Wonderful experience. Peaceful ambiance. Clean facilities. Friendly staff. Such a relaxing experience. The couples room was wonderful though it does not have the traditional egg pod in it. Instead it relies on a bigger floating pool for two people and excellent control of light. read more

SOULEX is by far the best float spa I have been to. The entire building is extremely clean and calming and the equipment they have is top of the line. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure you have an awesome experience. Will definitely be returning! read more

Fantastically clean. The rooms feel very Asian modern, and spotless. The rooms are completely private and are very accommodating. If you need a few moments of utter solitude this is the place for you. I'll surely be back. read more

Beautiful facility with a very relaxing and calming vibe. The whole process was very interesting. I felt so much lighter coming out of the pod an hour later. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for some great recovery, or even just a nice way to relax after a stressful day. read more

very clean and organized which are the most important thing. the owner and their staff are very friendly and helpful. overall, i'm very happy with it. the water isn't as warm as i thought like how you would do it in your own bathtub. i was a little cold and didnt seem to have any choice in water temperature. it would also be nice to have hair towel as well, there was only 1 bath towel to use. no hot tea as advertised today, but it was monday so perhaps they weren't busy enough to make some. i didnt intend to buy 3 sessions but i did as there was a good promotion and it probably takes a couple of times to really get the hang of it. i was bored towards the end but again this is all very new to not do anything but float, but that's the whole point. after the shower, i was melted, so relaxed. i wish there's a recliner to just fully lay down afterwards as i was so tired and need a few minutes to rest before leaving the place. read more

Soulex float spa was behind what I would ever image. If your in to mediation, relaxation, just a renewed self, this is the place to be. Overwhelmed greatness. The staff was extremely helpfully, friendly and welcoming. Book your appointment now to start a new you. read more

I was very excited about this one but please note the following: 1. If the receptionist asks you to put in your emergency contact on an Ipad, double-check if it's your profile! I realized that he pulled up somebody else's profile and it was uncomfortable seeing other customer's personal info in front of me. 2. Don't expect them to think of what you might need, even though it's your first time! I was in the middle of my session and my scalp started feeling a burning sensation due to too much salt...I realized I needed a hairnet and had to get up in the middle of the session, had to walk back and forth the hallways trying to find the lobby, and go to the lobby in my robe (would have been nice if they offered it before my session!). Due to this, I totally missed the time when the lights were were still on but slowly dimming automatically. When I got back, it was already pitched black..and the only options were to leave the light on the whole session or turn it off (receptionist said i had to wait for 30 minutes for the dimming feature to go on)..I was really looking forward to this because I get scared of the dark when I am in new places--having the lights slowly turn off would have helped me get acquainted. 3. Even though the receptionist says the lights are motion sensored--they are not. There were times the salt got into my eyes and I could not find the spray because it was so dark and the lights were not turning on...I wanted to walk to the shower but almost slipped because I coldn't see anything. A ball of floating light would be helpful! In summary, it was a disaster for me..it was supposed to be my birthday celebration too so didn't really have a good birthday. read more

This place was awesome. I have never done anything like this before. It was a gift from a boyfriend. The place smells amazing, is very clean, staff is more than helpful. I will definitely be coming back here again, and on a regular basis. read more

I got a gift certificate for a float from my girlfriend and probably wouldn't have gone otherwise. I'm so glad I did. At first it was just pleasant, but after 15 minutes or so it becomes very meditative and deeply relaxing. It felt like the rest I get from a good night's sleep while I was awake. I went in a little stressed and came out feeling calm and relaxed. Additionally, the staff are great and the facilities are excellent. read more

Never heard of this concept before. Walked by this place for a few weeks on my way to work and finally gave it a try. WOW! Never felt anything like it. Led to a totally different kind of meditation. And the people here are so professional and helpful. Definitely coming back and would definitely recommend to others. read more

I usually have trouble completely relaxing. I will admit that I was slightly skeptical but intrigued. Thus, I embarked upon my first float experience and was surprised by how relaxed and focused I felt (and still feel) afterwards. SOULEX is beautiful and clean and everyone there was so very sweet. I actually started to relax before actually getting into the pod as the whole facility exudes zen and calm. Once in the pod it took me a few minutes to get comfortable and figure out what worked for me. Once I did, however, it was such an amazing experience. read more

I had the hardest, most stressful week of my life. My body ached all over (especially in my shoulders and upper back) and I was so tired that I could not fall asleep at night. My mind would not stop racing and with the events of the week that were still coming up, there was no opportunity for me to take a break or slow down. But I knew I needed to do something to calm myself mentally and physically. SOULEX was the perfect answer. I have been to other float spas before but they cannot hold a candle to this one. The tanks are unlike any other that I have seen and the entire facility is so clean, state of the art, beautiful, and luxurious. Everything was customized to my preference and after an hour of floating, I felt like I could go on with what I needed to do. And that night I was able to have a restful sleep for the first time that week. I plan to go back to SOULEX as soon as possible. It is so rare that I take time to block out everything in the world, and I imagine that the more often I do it, the stronger the effects of this sensory deprivation. I cannot think of any other way to completely remove myself from all the stimuli of the world. That hour in the tank is priceless. read more

Had the start of a perfect weekend with a visit and 60 minute wonderful experience at Soulex today. State-of-the-art flotation pod with peaceful and colorful soft lighting and the pleasant sounds in the background all contributing to a very relaxing and stress-reducing day. The studio is beautifully designed with a private room and pod for the hour. All this and wonderful customer service. If you have never tried this, I strongly encourage you to - it will forever change your life... read more

After walking by and being intrigued by the place I booked a float spa. It was such an interesting experience. There are four float spa rooms. Three have large pods that are 8 ft x 5ft and the fourth room is larger has a pod that is more like a small pool. I did a 60 minute float. You are asked to shower before and after, and they provide wax ear plugs to prevent water from entering your ears. There are different options for lighting and music. I opted for no music and only the light around the emergency button. The pod is empty when you arrive and fills for you as you shower. It takes under 10 min to fill. There is also a head ring you can use to float. It provides a little more buoyancy for your head. I tried it with and without the head float. When your float is done the lights slowly come back on as well as nature sounds. Overall a very relaxing experience. I highly recommend! Everything is super clean and well done. read more

SOULEX float spa - Private room 2 with a float pod - Float Spa Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Interesting concept. Nicely appointed location. However, a 60 Hz hum during the float was distracting. Air in the pod became uncomfortably warm and humid. Opening the pod slightly brought in cold air. I'm pretty sure a nap on the couch would have been more relaxing. read more

My experience was pretty good. The facility was clean and the staff seemed friendly. I did want to make women aware that there is a pretty creepy hostel next door and when leaving the facility i was approached by someone who was standing in front of the hostel and appeared to be just flirting, but was clearly up to no good. I usually do not talk to strangers but after my floating experience I was pretty relaxed and my guard was down (not smart on my behalf). My intuition kicked in and I was able to get away from him and I also notified the police. It otherwise, seems like a nice neighborhood, just please be cautious if you are leaving here alone. read more

I have been dying to try this out for years, so seeing this open in DC was a great surprise. I think the pod and the rooms themselves are A+, very clean, relaxing, and feel like they thought of everything. Only 3 comments I would make for improvement. 1) the address needs to be updated to show it's actually on 11th street. I was late for my appointment because I was searching for the location 2) when we entered, the front lobby smelled really bad. Almost like a dog groomer's (that wet dog smell). 3) this is just a personal preference, but it would have been nice to have the option of keeping the music / noise they play in the first and last 5 minutes playing longer. All in all, the actual floating experience was great but would definitely improve on the other things listed. The smell was pretty off-putting to start. read more

Sacred space, one of the kind in D.C. Thank You for an amazing experience with friendly staff.

I don't normally leave reviews but after reading some of the ones left here I felt it necessary. I work in the service industry where we often joke that the only people who leave Yelp reviews are super critical, discount chasing complainers.., so never rely on Yelp reviews LOL. Anyway, with that said I'll get straight to the point. At 33 years old I had to have emergency heart surgery because over the counter allergy medicine destroyed my heart and we live in a damn swamp, I almost died. After the surgery, I suffered debilitating anxiety, I was afraid to do anything, even leave my house. I had consistent heart palpitations and a laundry list of issue that apparently come along with the trauma of my whole almost dying experience. No one could help me. I stumbled on Soulex Float spa through a gilt ad and decide to try it out. All doctors wanted to do was prescribe me more and more Xanax which just made me more depressed and more anxious. I'm not here to say it's for everybody but I will say as a person who suffered a traumatic experience, works in a high stress industry and had no idea about how to meditate or simply make my brain shut up, this worked for me. I don't work out and I don't have much free time as I am also a full-time student and a small business owner. Without the advice of any doctors or any pressure from anyone I started going for floats once a week and after the first float I never had a heart palpitation again, I had never been able to feel that type of calm. I tried to compare morning float versus afternoon, I tried on a full stomach, empty stomach or when I knew I had a long weekend ahead of me, every scenario I could think of I tried just to see if my heart would start beating weird or if this is just some gimmick. I'm happy to say I haven't even been back in months because I haven't had any problems at all. Even my doctor had to agree that the floats must have worked. People who were worried about me and there for my whole experience couldn't believe that one random hour helped me and I tell everyone that as a person who has no free time and is always running around, I consider floating like hitting a hard reset button. The fact that they care and genuinely want your experience to be great and helpful meant the world to me. I had tried so many things that didn't work and those places didn't care, those place just took my money. Shit happens sometimes at any business but to write horrible reviews about stupid little things when these people are just trying to add a business to our community that offers and supports wellness as opposed to the countless bars that pop every day in this city is just shitty. This place is great, the people are nice and even if it doesn't fit you as it fixed me it's worth trying just to check it out the experience. read more

I had never visited a float spa before but heard about Soulex from a friend, so I thought I would give it a try. It is near City Center and just a 10-minute walk from my downtown office. The reception area is elegant and peaceful; the owner, Pedramin, was warm and attentive. She greeted me and gave me a tour of the waiting area (which has a separate relaxation room) while I waited for my appointment. I chatted with the clients who had finished their floats and asked about their experiences. One young, professionally dressed woman told me she had done a float 10 years ago, which she had enjoyed, so she was excited when Soulex opened a few months ago. She told me she had already done over 20 floats and said that she found it incredibly relaxing and much more effective for stress relief than a massage. Another woman, who was from Oregon but who visited DC every quarter for two weeks for work, came to Soulex every day while she is in DC. I told her how I was the type of person (lawyer with three kids) who never relaxed during a massage but, instead, used the time to plan my week. She told me that floating was much more relaxing than a massage and more effective at calming one's mind than meditation, because all external stimuli was absent during a float. It is thus easy to reach a calm, reflective state. She said that it was helpful for writer's block or when one had a problem to solve, because the subconscious mind was more open and creative. She told me that she liked to journal immediately after a float because she found that she was very creative at that time. A third customer, a young, professionally dressed man, came out from the spa area and mentioned, when asked by the woman from Oregon, that it was his first time floating. He then went to the reception desk and purchased a series of five floats. When it was my turn, Pedramin showed me where to change into slippers and then gave me a tour of the separate spa area. There is a private area with hair dryers, lotions and hair products that clients can use to get ready after a float. There are four private spa rooms, three with a float pod (which have lids) and one with an open, rectangular pool for those clients who are claustrophobic or want a larger place to float or for couples. Each pod and pool has lights that change colors and speakers that play calming music. (The spa can program the music at the client's direction.) Each room is large, with a clean, Asian ethos and a large rain shower. The spa provides shampoo, conditioner, soap, makeup remover, and ear plugs. Each client showers before the float. The room grows dark (but the lights in the pod stay on, as does the music, for the first 5 minutes, before quietly fading away). I left the lid open about a foot for the first 45 minutes but then closed it for the last 15 minutes, as I was completed relaxed at that time. (I was paranoid about the pod not having enough oxygen but I asked about it later and was told that the pods could not close completely and were designed to provide a constant airflow.) The lights and music come back on to signal the end of the session. I showered afterwards, dried my hair and reapplied my makeup, and then walked back to work in a very happy frame of mind. I was totally shocked at how relaxed I became after only about 30 minutes of floating and how the feeling stayed with me. I slept peacefully through the night that night, which was extremely unusual. The next day, driving home in traffic, I felt the same peaceful state come over me. I plan to try to go once a week or every two weeks and bought gift cards for two family members who are currently undergoing stressful periods in their lives. read more
