Float therapy (or sensory deprivation) involves floating in a private tank filled with warm water and over 1,000 pounds of Epsom salt. It’s designed to help you deeply relax by reducing sensory input—no lights, no noise, no distractions.

Sensory deprivation began as an experiment of consciousness during the 1960’s with neuroscientist, John C. Lily. As Lily began to perfect temperature and gravity levels, he found the experience to be deeply expansive and meditative. He shared his findings with world renowned psychologists such as Ram Dass & Timothy Leary. This deeply pushed the expeditions of the counterculture during the 60s & 70s in regards to internal expansion and spirituality.

As history progresses, scientific research has been able to uncover the benefits of float therapy:

• Reduces stress and anxiety

• Eases muscle tension and joint pain

• Enhances sleep and mental clarity

• Supports nervous system regulation

• Boosts creativity and focus

The water in our float tanks are heated to match the surface temperature of your skin—about 95 degrees Fahrenheit. This creates a sensation where the boundary between your body and the water begins to blur, allowing your nervous system to fully relax without needing to regulate body temperature. It’s designed to feel neutral and deeply soothing.

We recommend floating nude for the most comfortable and distraction-free experience. Each float room is completely private, with its own shower and changing area, so you can fully relax.

If you feel more comfortable wearing a swimsuit, you're absolutely welcome to. Just keep in mind that fabric can sometimes create subtle sensations or pressure points that may take you out of the experience.

If you do choose to wear a swimsuit, we kindly ask that you take your first shower without it — this helps ensure that no soap or detergent residue enters the float water.

Ultimately, it’s your choice. We want you to feel safe, supported, and at ease — whatever helps you relax most deeply is the right choice for you.

Yes, absolutely—with a few considerations. Floating can be incredibly supportive during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters. The zero-gravity environment relieves pressure on joints, hips, and the lower back while offering a sense of weightlessness that’s hard to find anywhere else.

That said, we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider before your first float—just to ensure it’s the right fit for your unique pregnancy needs. Many expectant parents find floating to be one of the most comfortable and restorative parts of their prenatal care routine.

We provide nearly everything—towels, earplugs, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

That said, we suggest bringing any personal toiletries or skincare products you love to use post-float. It's always nice to make Saha feel more like home.

Yes, your hair will get wet. We do have swim caps available, but because our float tanks are filled with still water (not moving like a pool), the caps can often trap water and cause even more soaking.

If you’re concerned about your hair, we recommend planning accordingly.
We also ask that all guests shower before their float to remove any oils, lotions, or hair products—this helps keep our float water as clean and long-lasting as possible.

Most clients are surprised at how spacious the float tank feels. You’re always in control—you can leave the door open, adjust the light, or exit at any time. If you are particularly nervous, we recommend trying rooms 1 or 2! They are 8 foot circular tubs which are twice the size of a traditional tank; this offers even more space to stretch out.

If you’re ever in the area, you’re always welcome to stop by and chat with staff. We would love to show you a room if one if available. 

That’s totally normal—and safe. The high salt content keeps you effortlessly buoyant, even if you drift off.

You’ll feel the benefits after one session, but like many wellness practices, consistency amplifies results.

Many members float weekly or biweekly to support ongoing stress relief, mental clarity, and body recovery. We offer amazing membership discounts and benefits for sharing this wonderful practice with us.

Floating allows your body and mind to fully relax by removing the usual input from your senses — no pressure on your joints, no noise, no light, no demands. When you float in our warm, mineral-rich water, your nervous system shifts into a deeply restorative state known as the parasympathetic response (or "rest and digest" mode).

Here’s what that does for you:

• Relieves stress by lowering cortisol levels and calming the mind

• Reduces physical tension in muscles and joints

• Supports better sleep and helps reset circadian rhythms

• Improves focus and mental clarity by giving your brain space to reset

• Enhances mood by boosting dopamine and endorphin levels

• Promotes faster recovery after workouts or injury

Over time, regular floating can help regulate your nervous system, improve resilience to stress, and support a greater sense of balance in daily life.

It’s not just relaxation—it’s a full-body recalibration.
