What is it like being inside a float tank at Water Temple?

2022-07-20T09:50:44+10:00

People who float regularly will all have their own story, which is different for each person and each float; in general, because the salt solution is warmed to skin temperature, it is so dense that you float; it will be comfortable and relaxing.

No, this is a personal preference. We supply disposable ones, and you can also purchase from a choice of 3 that we have available.

Am I in control of my float therapy experience?

2022-07-20T09:46:58+10:00

First-time floaters may have a few fears or anxieties about the experience; being naked can make you feel a little vulnerable or claustrophobic, but remember, the room is private and locked by you. You are in control of the lights and the lid, so if leaving the lights on and the lid fully open works, [...]

What about hair colour and spray tanning?

2022-07-20T09:41:59+10:00

This would be one expensive float; the cost of draining the tank and refilling is over $600, so we recommend you leave at least 7 days after you have dyed your hair or no colour runs when you wash it. Spray tans can also discolour the tank water, so please wait 7-10 days before jumping [...]
