This left me feeling super relaxed for a few days. I totally recommend trying this place!

Wow... I was reeeeeeeeeeally hesitant to try because I do not typically do well in small spaces. Once I was in the tank and got into a comfy position, though, I felt like I was in a hugely expansive space. Plus, Joe explained everything so easily that it wasn't hard for me to stop overthinking hah... speaking of overthinking, I thought I'd do a bunch of that, but my mind cleared quickly. I live with Lupus that, for me, affects my entire body. I have been in pain since the 2000's because of having abused my body while being a competitive dancer and cheerleader for 20-ish years. My lovely Lupus monster attacks every injury I have ever had, all stinking day and I typically take eons to get moving after lying down a while (especially waking up in the morning) and I wander through the days swollen head to toe. It's whatever bc it's been so long and most things I've tried dont really help. That's life i figured... Honestly though, this was mind blowingly relaxing. Maybe 5 minutes in, I started to feel my muscles all let go. My spine was clearly lengthening bc it popped into place on it's own here and there as it let go. My neck did the same. Admittedly, I fell asleep. Hah! I am NOT a great sleeper and definitely did not think I could fall asleep in water but, here we are. I came out with the softest skin and hair I have had in eons, able to wiggle my toes and fingers more than ever and almost feeling off kilter because my spine was straight and I had reeeeeeeeeeally gotten used to it being crooked. I went yesterday and today, I still feel soft, relaxed, aligned and in significantly less pain than usual. I have a bunch more energy than usual, too. ...I might already be addicted 😬

Got a gift card here and didn’t know what to expect. It was an awesome experience! Exactly the type of hard reset I needed in my life. I feel like I am about to take a LEGENDARY sleep tonight. Thanks to the dude at the counter for being my pre-float Sherpa. I will totally be gifting this to family next year.

Been going to the Flo for over 6 years now and it is by far the greatest experience you could imagine for rest, relaxation, pain relief and just overall mental clarity. It’s become an important part of my life and I couldn’t thank them enough for all that they do. Great place to step in and check out!

The experience with this place has been a nightmare. I purchased 3, 1 hour float sessions for my wife to try out as a birthday present. She scheduled her first appointment a few days out, was ready to leave the house and got a call the owner was locked out of his business and would need to reschedule….understandable... things happen thanks for the heads up! So he offered an appointment a few days later, she drove to the appointment to find the doors locked…. Stood out in the cold no communication…. Finally 10 minutes after her appointment time another client called to find out why the doors were locked but the lights were on. The owner told the other client that the hot water tank was broken and would have to reschedule. I requested a refund from the vendor and they advise my refund was denied by the owner…. I would never do business here this is a terrible way to run a business!

I had a magical and wonderful experience for my first float here. Matthew was a great host and took care of making sure I felt safe and comfortable. The space itself was extremely calming upon entering with incense and crystals on display, creating a zen atmosphere. The float room was extremely clean and the special lighting was so calming. The 90 minute float was perfect for my first time, even though at first I was nervous it would be too long. It went by so fast I could’ve stayed floating for another hour! Afterwards I felt like I was floating and super light, like all the heaviness drained out of me. Highly recommend as a tool over time for nervous system regulation. Thank you Matthew! 🥰
