What to expect

The Floatworks Experience

We have spent years perfecting the float from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. Here is a run through of what to expect, and a few tips for getting the most out of your hour.

A walkthrough of the centre, from arrival to your post-float tea.

1

Before your float

  • Avoid stimulants like caffeine on the day, it will help you relax.
  • Do not shave on the day of your float, as it can lead to irritation.
  • There is no need to bring anything. We provide fresh towels, body wash, shampoo and conditioner in your private shower, and hairdryers, straighteners and natural moisturiser in the Hair and Mirrors Room.
  • If you can, arrive 10 minutes early so our Float Guides have time to give you a full walkthrough.
2

During your float

  • We recommend floating naked so you feel completely free. If you prefer a swimming costume, bring a bag to put it in afterwards.
  • Find a comfortable position in the water. Let your head and neck relax, and feel the tension release from your muscles.
  • Ten minutes of ambient music eases you in. Turn the light off whenever you feel comfortable, leave it on, or turn it back on at any point.
  • Then all you need to do is float effortlessly and enjoy it.
  • The music returns five minutes before the end, and the light comes back on when your float is over.
3

After your float

  • Once you are showered and dressed, visit the Hair and Mirrors Room for hairdryers, straighteners and pure essential oil moisturiser.
  • Take some time over a complimentary tea before heading back out into the world.
  • Our Relaxation Room is perfect if you want more peace and quiet, or fancy reading or meditating.
  • If you are feeling more sociable, come and sit with us in Reception.
