Float
We have 4 pods in total. 3 of them are single-person float pods, and 1 of them is a couple pod allowing 2 people to float inside the same pod together at the same time.
We put approximately 500kg of food-grade Epsom Salt into each pod to create a safe and buoyant environment for effortless floating. Epsom Salt is a naturally occurring compound of magnesium and sulfate, well-known for its therapeutic benefits, including improved sleep quality, relaxation, and anti-inflammatory properties.
You will stay afloat and the water buoyancy will keep you supported at all times. While some people do fall asleep during their float, it is important to note that not everyone does. If you do fall asleep, it is a sign that your body is getting the quality rest it needs. However, in most cases, people are not sleeping but rather drifting into a deeper meditative state, which can help improve mental clarity and reduce stress.
You can get out anytime if needed. You can easily open and close the pod lid anytime during your session. We also have a bench in each room where you can sit and rest if you want to.
It depends on your preference. If you are looking for a solitary experience and some me-time, we recommend booking 2 pods so you can each float separately, in this way, you can adjust settings to your liking or be fully immersed in the sensory-deprived experience. However, if you are looking for bonding and a shared experience, floating together in 1 pod will be a good option.
Floating in a couple pod may seem like it goes against the idea of sensory deprivation, but it can actually be a good option for some people. For example, if one person is hesitant about floating alone, floating with a trusted companion at the beginning of their float journey can be very reassuring. Additionally, we have some couples who make it a routine to float together monthly as a way to deepen their connection and share a unique, non-verbal experience. Some couples may gradually choose to float separately to customize their float experience for individual preferences, such as audio options, temperature, more space or other settings.
If your hair dye or tanning products have fully set and there is no longer any risk of the color bleeding or staining the water, then you are good to float. It should take at least a week.
Our standard float session is 60 minutes, but if you prefer a longer duration, you can book a 120-minute session (2 sessions of 60 minutes), etc. We do not offer shorter sessions, but you are welcome to exit the pod earlier if you wish. You are welcome to share your experience with our float guide, we float a lot and are happy to offer intuitive ways to enhance and explore other options for your future floats.
It is up to you. If you don't have a preference, we recommend closing the pod lid during your float to maximize the sensory deprivation experience. This helps to block light and sound, and keep the air and water warm inside the pod. However, if you feel more at ease leaving it open or halfway open, you are welcome to do so too. We also provide a blue sponge in each room for people who prefer to leave a gap between the lids.
There is a lot of space in our pods, just like in a car, and you can easily open the door and get out anytime. When you come in for your pod intro, we ensure you any worries about closing the lid will naturally melt away. You will see how easy it is to open and close the pod’s lid at any time, and the button to turn on and off the light inside the pod at any time. If you prefer, you can even choose to keep the lid open or halfway open until you feel ready to close it for the full experience too. Many people with this initial concern have successfully floated with us and still enjoying their therapeutic float journey.
You don’t need to know how to swim. The water is very buoyant and the 500kg of Epsom salts is what keeps you afloat effortlessly. Some people will even fall asleep during the session as it is just too comfortable when your body can completely surrender to the water. We also have a halo ring (float headrest) provided if you want a little extra head support.
With our schedule, a maximum of 2 float pods are available for each time slot. If you are a group of 3 people, we could reserve 1 couple pod and 1 single pod, which allows 3 people to start their float at the same time.Otherwise, we could arrange a maximum of 4 float pods to start at the same time for every first and last float session daily:
Sat-Sun: 9am, 9pmMon-Fri (Except Tue): 9:45am, 9pmTue: 3pm, 9pm
For other inquiries such as corporate events or special occasions, please contact us for more information.
Float sessions in the pod will be 60 mins and we will provide extra time for you to shower before and after the session. For 1st time clients, please arrive 30 mins in advance for a full intro prior to the session, and best to spare yourself more time to enjoy the post-float glow with a cup of tea after your session. It's a great way to extend the benefits of your float and make the most of your experience with us.
Our Float Guide will provide you with a full introduction on float therapy, to familiarize you with the float pod and answer any questions you may have. Arriving early gives you time to relax and unwind before the session, enough time for yourself to shower, and allows for a peaceful transition into your float. We want you to have the best possible experience and arriving early is a great way to make that happen.
We provide all necessities for you including shower gel, towels, earplugs, makeup remover, hairdryers, lotion, and more. You will have your own room with a private showering area, also floating nude will give you the best experience, therefore swimsuits will not be required.
Floating nude will give you the best experience. It eliminates any distractions or discomfort from clothing. It is also like shedding the layers of your daily life and embracing a sense of freedom. Rest assured that you will be in a private setting, and the room is solely for your use during your session. If you prefer, you can wear a swimsuit too. We understand everyone has different comfort levels, and our priority is for you to feel at ease and comfortable, regardless of what you choose to wear.
You will be in a private room with a shower and a float pod next to it. We provide all the amenities you will need for your float including earplugs, towels, and shower gel. After your float, you can use our public powder room where we provide hairdryers, lotions, and other personal care items to freshen up before you leave.
If you have a large open wound, it's best to wait until it is fully healed. For small cuts, we provide waterproof spray plaster or Vaseline in our powder room. If you have recently dyed your hair or used tanning products, you will need to wait until the color has settled before floating. It is also recommended to have a light meal before your float, and to avoid an empty or overly full stomach. Lastly, for ladies, we recommend waiting until after your menstrual cycle to float.
We do not offer the option to plug your own music into the float pod. However, we offer a variety or audio tracks to choose from, including Dreamspapes and solfeggio frequency, although silence in the float tank is bliss. and even silence if you prefer.
Water hygiene is of utmost importance to us. Our float pods are well-equipped and it is mandatory for all the water to run through a filtration cycle after every session. Our Dreampod system includes filtering water through a 10-micron filter, capable of filtering debris in the water that’s 1/4 the size of the diameter of a human hair, followed by the additional use of a UV light array. Our Epsom Salt water (salty) is at 42% salt-to-water ratio, not only does the water buoyancy allow anyone to float weightlessly to relax, but it is also tough for any microorganism to survive in this extreme salt content of the water. We also use alcohol wipes to sanitize the frequently touched surfaces on the pod and the room between each float session.
For best practice, we recommend floating on a weekly basis. Regular floating can be highly beneficial for your physical, mental, and emotional health. However, we understand that everyone's needs and schedules are different. Some people find that floating more or less frequently works better for them. You may refer to our float frequency guide for suggestions. If you are new to floating and not sure, our float guides are also happy to discuss your goals and match you up with the option that works best for you.
Yes, we can adjust the temperature slightly upon request. Please note that requests need to be made at least 1 day in advance as we need sufficient time to heat up the water before your session. For those who are new to floating, we recommend trying our preset temperature first. It is designed to match our skin temperature and create a sensory-deprived environment where you may lose track of where the water begins and ends on your body during the session.
Anyone 17 and older can float by themselves.
For age 16 or below, a parent can float together with your child in our couple pod. This pod allows 2 people to float inside the same pod together at the same time, ensuring safety during the session.For teenagers with ages between 13-16, they can also float alone if their parent is on the premises.
We have many pregnant women who float with us and find float therapy to be very therapeutic. The weightlessness the body experiences in the pod can provide immediate relief from back pain and other discomforts associated with pregnancy. Float therapy also helps to improve circulation, reduce stress and improve sleep quality. Epsom Salt in the pod helps to ease muscular tension and reduce swelling too.
In general, we recommend pregnant women to float in their second or third trimester. If you have any medical concerns, it is best to consult your doctor before visiting.
Before your float, you should avoid caffeine and an empty/full stomach, and ensure that any cuts or wounds are covered or healed. During your session, you can expect to feel weightless and relaxed, with a sense of deep peace and calm. For people who are new to floating, it could take you a few floats to get used to it. After your session, you may feel rejuvenated and refreshed, with a heightened sense of awareness and clarity.
Setting an intention before your float can help you get the most out of your experience. Approach each session with an open heart and an open mind, and let go of any expectations. Trust in the process and allow yourself to fully surrender to the experience. Your float is unique to you, and there's no right or wrong way to float.
We recommend that you wait until it is finished for the most comfortable and stress-free experience.
Cold Plunge
We keep our water between 5-7°C without the need for ice.
The session takes place in an outdoor area. Please bring your swimsuit or swim shorts, and warm clothing to put on after the session. We provide towels for your convenience. Please arrive pre-showered as we do not have a shower available for cold plunge bookings.
Each session is 30 minutes of private access to our outdoor area. During this time, you can take multiple cold dips, take breaks in between, and practice meditation or breathwork to help you stay focused.
You can top up and bring a friend, you can take turns using the cold barrel and warm up. It is a great way to support and motivate each other through the discomfort of the cold plunge and share your “cool” accomplishments together.
The ideal duration for a cold plunge varies depending on your experience level and personal preferences. As a general guideline, we recommend starting with shorter sessions of around 1-2 minutes and gradually increasing the time as you become more accustomed to the cold water.
It is generally recommended to avoid staying in a cold plunge for longer than 10 minutes at a time. It's important to listen to your body and pay attention to any warning signs of discomfort. Prolonged exposure to cold water can increase the risk of hypothermia and other adverse effects.
For beginners, you can start by doing a weekly plunge. According to the basic protocol from Dr. Andrew Huberman who is a neuroscientist and professor at Stanford University, he recommends a minimum of 11 minutes total per week, divided into 2-4 sessions lasting 1-5 mins each. You can do more, but this should be the minimum to achieve the benefits of cold exposure.
Our cold barrel is preset at 5-7°C. Currently, we do not offer the option to adjust the temperature.
Please arrive pre-showered as we do not have a shower available for cold plunge bookings.
You can cold plunge at any time during the day. Some people prefer to do it in the morning or during lunch breaks to invigorate them for the day. People often get a big energy boost afterwards so we don’t recommend a cold plunge within 60 minutes before going to bed. Ultimately, the best time for you to do a cold plunge is when you can commit to a consistent practice that works best for your lifestyle and goals.
Our Cold barrel system manufactured by the Dreampod is equipped with self-regulating pumps and a thorough filtration system. The water has to go through a 10-micron filter, capable of filtering debris in the water that’s 1/4 the size of the diameter of a human hair. We use Chlorine outside of opening hours too.
It is best to cold plunge on an empty stomach. It can help to minimize any potential discomfort or nausea that may occur during the cold water immersion. If you are coming after lunch, we recommend waiting at least an hour after eating before taking a cold plunge. A full stomach can affect your body's ability to regulate its core temperature, which is important during cold water immersion.
Anyone 17 and older can cold plunge by themselves. People aged 16 or below need to be accompanied by an adult using the cold plunge.
Cold plunge can be an intense experience, you need to be physically and mentally capable to participate. We recommend starting with shorter sessions and gradually increasing the time as you become more accustomed to the cold water. Please avoid cold plunge if you are pregnant or have high blood pressure. If you have any medical concerns or conditions, we recommend consulting with your doctor before visiting.
We do not have a sauna.
Shivering is a natural response to cold water immersion, and it is normal to experience it during a cold plunge. Your body's core temperature drops during the plunge, and shivering helps to generate heat and warm up your body.
However, if you continue to shiver for an extended period of time after the cold plunge, it is important to take steps to warm up and prevent hypothermia. Hypothermia occurs when the body loses heat faster than it can produce it and can be serious if left untreated. We recommend drying off and changing into warm clothes as soon as possible after the plunge. You can also try drinking a warm beverage or doing some light exercise to help increase blood flow and warm up your body.
In general, we recommend doing a cold plunge and floating on separate dates. It allows you to fully integrate and appreciate the full benefits of each therapy. They have different effects on the body and mind. However, if you have a tight schedule and can only do them on the same day, we recommend starting with a cold plunge followed by a float.
