According to the Float Center website, Float Therapy is a natural and relaxing wellness practice used to relieve stress, manage pain and muscle recovery, that improve sleep quality and mental clarity.

A float tank is filled with 10 to 12 inches of purified water and saturated with over 800 pounds of medical grade Epsom Salt which allows you to float effortlessly on your back.

The water is heated to skin temperature, making it imperceptible where you body ends and the water begins. The temperature of the water is between 93-95 degrees according to Brandon Buckel , Co-owner.

The tanks and rooms are sensory-managed, allowing you to rest in your own private suite free from the lights, sounds and stress of the outside world. You can choose to keep the lights on or off, and listen to music or have silence.

The Rest & Revive Float Center opened in March and is open Monday-Saturday 10:00a.m.-5:30p.m.

Buckel says they will accommodate those who request after hour sessions.

There are 60 and 90 minute sessions.

  1. I have driven past your place many times when I visit my daughter in Leroy. I knew a little about this and knew it was something I wanted to experience. Because I am a 68 year old woman on a very fixed income I will be asking each of my 3 daughters for a gift certificate. Is it possible to visit to see in person? Thank you.
