How long does a float take?
A standard session is 60 minutes in the pod, with 15 minutes either side for showering and changing.
Can two people float together?
No — our pod is designed for one person at a time, and we have just one pod at our retreat.
What do I wear in the pod?
You float nude in your private room.
Is the water clean?
Yes. It’s a highly saline environment, and the Epsom salt is naturally antibacterial. The water is UV-filtered and sanitised between each session and throughout the day. Hydrogen peroxide is also dosed once every 24 hours.
Can I float while pregnant?
Yes, many women love it. Please check with your midwife or LMC first. We cannot float anyone under 12 weeks or over 37 weeks.
What if I can’t swim?
That’s no problem. The water is only 28cm deep, and the salt makes you effortlessly buoyant — it’s more like floating in a shallow warm bath.
What if I’m claustrophobic?
You are always in control — the door can be left open and the light on. Most people find it surprisingly spacious.
Can I fall asleep in the pod?
Yes — it’s safe. The water keeps you buoyant and music will gently wake you at the end.
