Understanding Float Therapy: What to Expect

Float therapy, also known as sensory deprivation therapy, involves lying in a float pod filled with Epsom salt-infused water. This creates a zero-gravity environment that allows you to effortlessly float, promoting deep physical relaxation and mental calm. At Krysus Human Performance, our float pods are designed to provide a serene and personalized experience. Whether you’re new to floating or a seasoned practitioner, understanding how float therapy works can help you make the most of your session. Here’s what you need to know about the process and how to prepare for your float.”

The Float Therapy Experience

Your float therapy journey at Krysus begins with a brief orientation where our staff will explain the session and answer any questions you might have. You’ll then be guided to a private room equipped with a personal shower and a premium float pod. Here’s a step-by-step overview of what to expect during your float therapy session:

  1. Entering Your Private Float Room: Once inside your private float room, the environment can be tailored to your comfort with adjustable temperature controls. Our staff will assist you with programming your float to include optional music and lighting preferences.
  2. Pre-Float Shower: Start with a shower using the provided toiletries to remove any oils and prepare your body for floating. This ensures the highest level of hygiene and comfort.
  3. Entering the Float Pod: Once inside the float pod, adjust the float pod’s lid to your preferred position.
  4. The Float Session: Lie back in the pod and let the Epsom salt solution support your body. As you float, you’ll experience a sensation of weightlessness and sensory isolation. This time is perfect for meditation, deep relaxation, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet. Each floating session ranges from 30-90 minutes long.
  5. Post-Float Shower: After your session, take another shower to rinse off the Epsom salt. You will then return to the prep room to get changed and freshened up before you head out to conquer the rest of your day.

How to Prepare for Your Float Session

Preparing for your float session ensures you get the most out of your experience. Here are some tips to help you prepare effectively:

  • Avoid Stimulants: Refrain from consuming caffeine or other stimulants at least a few hours before your float, as they can interfere with your ability to relax.
  • Eat Lightly: Have a light meal 1-2 hours before your session. Floating on an empty or overly full stomach can be uncomfortable.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water before your session to stay hydrated but avoid drinking large amounts right before floating.
  • Personal Hygiene: Shower thoroughly before your float to remove oils and perfumes, ensuring the Epsom salt solution remains clean and effective.
  • Arrive Early: Arrive at least 15 minutes before your appointment to complete any necessary paperwork and get settled in without rushing.
  • Remove Jewelry: Take off any jewelry.
  • Avoid Shaving/Waxing: Avoid shaving or waxing on the day of your float, as freshly shaved skin may be sensitive to the salt.
