Deep relaxation

Floating helps to reduce stress and anxiety by promoting a state of profound relaxation and calm.

Muscle recovery

The weightlessness of floating eases muscle tension and promotes faster recovery from physical exertion or injury.

Pain relief

The buoyancy of the water reduces pressure on joints and muscles, which can help alleviate chronic pain, such as back or neck pain.

Improved sleep

Floating can enhance sleep quality by reducing stress and calming the nervous system.

Mental clarity

The sensory deprivation environment helps clear the mind, leading to increased mental clarity and focus.

Increased creativity

The deep relaxation often leads to a boost in creativity and problem-solving abilities.

Reduced anxiety and depression

Regular floating can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression by calming the nervous system and improving mood.

Enhanced mindfulness

The peaceful environment fosters a heightened sense of mindfulness and helps you connect with your inner self.

Improved circulation

Floating encourages better blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, aiding in overall health and wellness.

These benefits may vary from person to person, but many floaters report experiencing a combination of these positive effects after their sessions.

What is

Float Therapy?

Short-term Sensory Deprivation.

Float therapy, as the name suggests, involves floating in a specially designed pod that promotes short-term sensory deprivation. This experience takes place in a large tank filled with super-saturated magnesium water, making you effortlessly buoyant. Also known as isolation tanks or sensory deprivation tanks, float therapy has gained significant popularity among athletes, individuals managing stress, and those seeking relief from depression or other health concerns. During a typical session, which lasts between 30 and 90 minutes, you float in body-temperature salt water in an environment completely free from light and sound. Importantly, the experience is entirely within your control—you can open the tank at any time, ensuring comfort and peace of mind. At Bliss Wellness, we stand out as one of the few float spas in Australia offering two distinct styles of float tanks to suit different preferences. Open Float Pool: This option provides a spacious environment where the floater has a full view of the room at all times—perfect for those new to floating, anyone who has physical limitations or those who prefer a more open experience. Pod Float Tank: Our most popular choice, this tank offers complete REST (Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy) for deep relaxation. The pod-style tank allows the lid to be closed fully for total sensory isolation or left open for a customisable experience. Whether you’re looking to enhance recovery, manage stress, or simply experience unparalleled relaxation, Bliss Wellness is here to provide the perfect float therapy tailored to you.

FLOAT

FAQs

Float therapy is safe for most people and designed to support deep relaxation and recovery. If you have any medical conditions or concerns, we recommend speaking with our team prior to booking so we can ensure the experience is right for you.

We recommend postponing your float if you have:
• Open wounds, cuts, recent tattoos or skin irritations
• Contagious illnesses or infections
• Recently shaved or highly sensitive skin
• Consumed alcohol or recreational substances
This ensures both your comfort and the best possible experience.

We do not recommend floating with newly dyed or bright-coloured hair (such as reds, purples or fashion tones), as the salt water may cause colour to bleed or fade.
For best results, wait until your colour has been washed several times and is fully set.

The high concentration of magnesium salts may cause stinging on broken or irritated skin. It’s best to wait until the skin has healed before your session. If you’re unsure, our team can guide you.

Some people — particularly those prone to motion sensitivity — may experience mild nausea during their first float due to the sensation of weightlessness.
This is uncommon and usually settles quickly, with most clients finding the experience deeply calming.

We offer both a traditional float pod and an open float pool, so you can choose the experience that feels most comfortable for you.

For anyone concerned about enclosed spaces, we recommend the open float pool — it provides the same benefits with an open, spacious feel.

Your comfort is always in your control, and you can exit at any time. Most clients find they relax deeply once they settle into the experience.

We recommend floating without clothing for the best experience, however it is entirely your choice. Your comfort is what matters most.
Yes — all float sessions take place in private, single-person rooms to ensure a calm, uninterrupted and personalised experience.

We recommend checking with your healthcare provider before booking, and as a precaution, we do not recommend floating after 37 weeks. If you have any questions, our team is always here to guide you.
For the best experience, we recommend: • Avoid shaving or waxing on the day • Avoid heavy meals immediately before your session • Avoid alcohol or stimulants Arriving calm and comfortable will help you get the most out of your float.
