🌊 How Float Therapy Supports Mental Clarity, Creativity & Sleep

Discover why busy minds and bodies find calm in our floatation pods.

In today’s fast-paced world, entrepreneurs, creatives, and high performers constantly juggle deadlines, ideas, and stress. It’s no wonder your brain feels cluttered, and sleep can sometimes seem out of reach.

At Float Space, our state-of-the-art floatation pods offer a unique solution: a quiet, weightless environment where your mind can reset, recharge, and refocus.


🧠 Clear the Mental Clutter

Float therapy provides sensory deprivation—meaning no light, sound, or distractions. This deep sensory rest helps your brain dial down the noise, allowing you to:

  • Reduce cortisol (the stress hormone)
  • Lower anxiety levels
  • Improve concentration and mental clarity

For entrepreneurs and anyone in a creative field, this mental reset can spark fresh ideas and better decision-making.


🎨 Boost Creativity & Problem-Solving

Floating encourages your brain’s alpha waves—linked to relaxed alertness and creative thinking.

Many of our clients report experiencing “aha moments” or breakthroughs during or immediately after a float session. Without external distractions, your subconscious mind gets the space it needs to innovate and solve problems naturally.


😴 Sleep Like You Mean It

Sleep problems affect productivity, mood, and overall health. Studies show that float therapy can help:

  • Improve sleep quality and duration
  • Reduce insomnia symptoms
  • Promote deeper, more restorative sleep cycles

Relaxing in the pod before bedtime or as part of your weekly wellness routine can set you up for better nights—and better days.


💼 Why Float Therapy is Perfect for High Performers

Entrepreneurs and busy professionals need recovery just as much as action.

Adding float sessions to your schedule is like hitting a mental reset button. It’s preventative care for burnout, anxiety, and stress-related fatigue—allowing you to maintain peak performance over the long haul.


🧘‍♀️ Combine with Massage & Infrared Sauna for Ultimate Wellness

Want to supercharge your mental and physical recovery? Pair your float with:

  • A tailored massage to release physical tension
  • An infrared sauna session to detoxify and relax muscles

This trio forms a powerful wellness toolkit to keep you sharp, calm, and ready for whatever the week throws at you.

🌿 How to Build a Weekly Wellness Routine That Actually Sticks

Small steps. Big changes. Your mind and body will thank you.

You know the feeling—Monday rolls around and you mean to prioritise your health this week. But life happens. Work gets busy, family needs you, your phone won’t stop, and before you know it, you’re running on caffeine and stress again.

At Float Space, we’re here to help you reset and reclaim your routine—with realistic wellness steps that support your body, calm your mind, and fit into your lifestyle.

Here’s how to build a self-care routine that you’ll actually look forward to—and stick with.


💆‍♀️ 1. Book a Massage You Can Rely On

A weekly or bi-weekly massage isn’t a luxury—it’s your body’s maintenance plan.

Our30- / 60- or 90-minute tailored massages combine everything you need: deep tissue, hot stones, aromatherapy, cupping, bamboo—all blended to target stress, pain, or fatigue.

🗓️ Make it your non-negotiable.
Same day. Same time. Book in advance so you’re less likely to cancel on yourself.


🌊 2. Float Away the Mental Clutter

Stress doesn’t just live in your shoulders—it lives in your mind.

Just one floatation pod session a week can dramatically reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and give your nervous system a true reset. It’s like hitting Ctrl + Alt + Delete for your brain.

🧘‍♀️ Pair with your massage day or schedule a mid-week float to break up the chaos.


🔥 3. Use Infrared Sauna as a Reset Ritual

Even 45 minutes in our infrared sauna can reduce inflammation, support detox, and leave your skin glowing.

It’s perfect after a workout, before a massage, or on days when you just need a moment to yourself—sweat out stress, literally.


💅 4. Book One Beauty Treatment That Makes You Feel Good

Your self-care doesn’t end with your muscles. Whether it’s a facial, gel nails, or waxing, adding one beauty treatment to your week or fortnight helps you feel polished, cared for, and confident.

💡 Pro tip: Combine beauty with a float or sauna for a full “spa day” feel—even if it’s just an hour or two.


🎯 5. Stick to the 3Ps: Plan, Prioritise, Protect

Here’s the real secret to a wellness routine that lasts:

  • Plan it – Book your appointments in advance (we can help!)
  • Prioritise it – Treat it like any other commitment—because it is
  • Protect it – Set boundaries around your wellness time. No multitasking. No guilt. No phone.

Floating for Chronic Pain & Fibromyalgia

A soothing, natural approach to pain management

Living with chronic pain or fibromyalgia can feel like a constant battle. From aching muscles to brain fog, it can be exhausting and isolating. But there’s hope in the water — literally.

Floatation therapy is a powerful yet gentle tool that offers relief from chronic pain by calming the nervous system, reducing inflammation, and allowing the body to deeply rest. At Float Space, we’ve seen first-hand how floating helps clients feel lighter, clearer, and more in control of their wellbeing.


🛁 What Happens During a Float?

Inside our floatation pods, your body floats effortlessly in warm, magnesium-rich Epsom salt water. The water supports you fully — no pressure on joints or muscles. The pod is dark and quiet (unless you’d like the light on!), creating a sensory-free environment where your nervous system can completely switch off.

For those living with fibromyalgia or other pain-related conditions, this relief is not just physical — it’s also mental and emotional.


🌟 Key Benefits for Chronic Pain & Fibromyalgia

✅ Muscle Relaxation

The Epsom salts contain magnesium, which helps ease muscle tension and reduce pain flare-ups.

✅ Reduced Sensory Overload

People with fibromyalgia often experience sensitivity to light, noise, and touch. The float environment removes all of that, offering true, uninterrupted rest.

✅ Better Sleep

Poor sleep is a common symptom in chronic pain conditions. Floating helps regulate sleep cycles by calming the mind and reducing cortisol (your stress hormone).

✅ Mental Reset

Floating can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms often linked to chronic pain — giving you a greater sense of control and calm.

✅ Decreased Inflammation

Studies show that floatation therapy can help reduce systemic inflammation, which is key in managing chronic pain conditions.


🧠 What Our Clients Say

Many of our regular floaters living with chronic pain tell us they feel “lighter,” “more mobile,” and “mentally clearer” after just one session. And with regular floats? Even better.


🫧 Make It Part of Your Pain Management Routine

Whether you float weekly or fortnightly, creating a regular schedule helps support long-term relief. You don’t have to suffer in silence — and you don’t have to rely on medication alone.

Plus, don’t forget about our loyalty programme. You’ll earn points every time you float, and at 40 points, you’ll get a £40 gift voucher. 💙

If you’re living with chronic pain or fibromyalgia and looking for a natural, supportive solution, we’d love to welcome you to Float Space.

Not Sure? Don’t Worry—We Tailor Every Treatment to You.

At Float Space, we often hear:
“I don’t know what massage I need—can you help?”
The answer is yes—and we love that question.

With so many types of massage available—deep tissue, sports, aromatherapy, hot stone, bamboo, dry cupping, reflexology—it can feel overwhelming. But here’s the truth: you don’t need to choose. That’s our job.

Whether you’re tight from training, aching from stress, or just need deep relaxation—we’ll assess your posture, muscle tension, and goals before we begin, and choose the techniques and tools that will help you feel your best.


🛠️ Hot Stones? Bamboo? Cupping? All Included.

Unlike some spas, we don’t charge extra for certain techniques. If your body needs cupping therapy, hot stones, bamboo massage tools, or deep trigger point work—we’ll use them.

This means every 30/60 or 90-minute massage is truly bespoke. No upsells, no hidden extras. Just effective, high-quality therapy that works.


🌿 A Few of the Massage Techniques We Blend:

  • Deep Tissue Massage – Great for chronic tension, pain relief & posture

🛎️ Bonus Tip: Combine Your Massage with Infrared Sauna or Float Therapy

Want to take your session to the next level? Pair your massage with our infrared sauna (to warm and relax muscles beforehand) or a floatation pod session (to extend the calm and aid recovery). Ask us for a personalised wellness plan!

Floating gives you permission to pause:

  • 🌊 Reset your nervous system
  • 🧠 Clear your mind and improve focus
  • 💆‍♀️ Relieve physical tension and recharge
  • 🤫 Enjoy actual silence for an hour

Join the 5AM Club? Here’s Why You Should Add Two 90-Minute Massages to Your Weekly Routine

The 5AM Club, made famous by Robin Sharma, encourages early rising, deep focus, and self-mastery. But what if we told you that the world’s most successful, high-performing people are also prioritising something else—regular bodywork?

At Float Space, we believe that if you’re truly committed to living with purpose and peak performance, then two 90-minute massages per week should be part of your essential self-care routine. Not a luxury. A necessity.


Why Two 90-Minute Massages Per Week?

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, athlete, busy parent, or wellness enthusiast, your body and mind deserve consistent care—not just the occasional treat. Here’s what happens when you commit to regular massage therapy:

1. Deep, Lasting Physical Recovery

A 60-minute massage is often just the beginning. In 90 minutes, we can deeply target tension, muscular imbalances, and chronic aches using a combination of therapies tailored to your needs—deep tissue, sports massage, bamboo massage, dry cupping, or aromatherapy. With two sessions a week, you’ll feel looser, stronger, and more aligned.

2. Stay Ahead of Stress

Stress builds up fast—especially in high-performance lifestyles. Regular massage reduces cortisol, boosts serotonin and dopamine, and helps regulate your nervous system. You’ll feel calmer, more focused, and far more in control of your energy.

3. Sharper Sleep, Focus & Energy

Good mornings start the night before. Massage improves sleep quality and helps you wake up refreshed—perfect if you’re following the 5AM Club routine. Combine your massages with our infrared sauna sessions for an even deeper detox and energy reset.

4. Preventative Health Care

Chronic tension, poor circulation, inflammation—these all sneak up on you. Two weekly massages can help prevent injury, support your immune system, and reduce the risk of long-term pain or burnout. It’s an investment in your longevity and daily performance.

5. A Mindful Reset

At Float Space, we don’t just offer treatments—we offer experiences. Each 90-minute session is time carved out just for you. A quiet, mindful pause from the noise of daily life. A chance to reconnect with your body and rebalance your mind.


The Float Space Advantage

Alongside our expert massage therapists, we also offer state-of-the-art floatation therapy pods, infrared sauna, and a range of beauty and recovery services to support your full-body wellness journey. From hot stones and reflexology to waxing, facials, and gel nails, you’ll find everything you need to feel your best, inside and out.


Ready to Elevate Your Routine?

If you’re already part of the 5AM Club or just beginning your wellness journey, now’s the time to prioritise your recovery, performance, and peace of mind.

Commit to two 90-minute massages a week, and we’ll help you feel the difference.

📅 We have a loyalty programme too—so the more you book, the more you benefit.
For every treatment, you earn points, and points = prizes!
Reach 40 points and you’ll receive a £40 gift voucher to use toward your next treatment or spa experience.

🌊 How Often Should You Float?

A guide to creating the perfect float routine based on your wellness goals

Floatation therapy is more than just a one-time escape from the world—it’s a powerful tool to support your mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing. But how often should you actually float to see the best results?

At Float Space, we get asked this all the time. The answer depends on your goals, lifestyle, and how you want to feel.

Here’s a breakdown to help you create a routine that works for you:


🧘‍♀️ For Stress & Anxiety Relief

Recommended: 1–2 floats per week
Floatation therapy is a natural way to calm the nervous system. If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or burnt out, regular floating helps lower cortisol, promote mental clarity, and create a sense of peace.

🫧 Bonus tip: Pair with aromatherapy massage for the ultimate reset.


💤 For Better Sleep

Recommended: 1-2 floats per week
Struggling to fall or stay asleep? Floating reduces brainwave activity and mimics the early stages of deep sleep, helping you drift off more easily later. Many clients say they get their best night’s sleep after a float!

🫧 Try floating in the evening to wind down after a hectic day.


💡 For Creativity & Focus

Recommended: 1–2 floats per week or as needed before a big project
Whether you’re a business owner, artist, or just feeling mentally cluttered, floating can help you find mental clarity, boost creative thinking, and tune into your intuition.

🫧 No distractions. Just you, your thoughts, and the space to unlock big ideas.


💪 For Physical Recovery & Pain Relief

Recommended: 2-3 floats per week during intense training or flare-ups
Floating is fantastic for athletes or anyone with chronic pain. The magnesium-rich Epsom salts help reduce inflammation, while weightlessness takes pressure off joints and muscles.

🫧 Combine with deep tissue or sports massage for even better results.


🧖‍♀️ For General Wellbeing & Maintenance

Recommended: 1 float every 1–2 weeks
Think of floating as mental maintenance—it keeps your stress low, your focus sharp, and your body relaxed. Regular sessions can help you stay ahead of burnout and boost your mood long-term.


🎯 Want to Float More Often?

We’ve made it easy with our loyalty programme—earn points every time you float, and redeem them for rewards like £40 gift vouchers. Because self-care should pay off!

And lets face it – you cant over float!

Stranger Things and Floatation Therapy: Eleven’s Secret to Superpowers (And Why You Don’t Need Them to Float at Float Space)

If you’re a fan of Stranger Things, you might remember the iconic scenes where Eleven escapes into a sensory deprivation tank — a floatation pod — to tap into her psychic abilities. This sci-fi twist on floating has sparked curiosity around the real-world benefits of float therapy.

But here’s the best part: You don’t need superpowers to enjoy the amazing benefits of floating at Float Space!


🧠 Eleven’s Floatation Experience: Science Meets Fiction

In Stranger Things, Eleven uses the float tank to enter a deep meditative state, amplifying her focus and accessing “the upside down.” While she’s busy battling supernatural forces, real floatation therapy helps ordinary people like us relax deeply, reduce stress, and reset our minds.


🌊 What Is Floatation Therapy Really?

At Float Space, our state-of-the-art floatation pods provide a peaceful, zero-gravity environment where you float effortlessly in warm, salt-saturated water. The pods block out light and sound, giving your mind and body a break from the sensory overload of daily life.


✨ No Superpowers Required — Just You and Some Serious Relaxation

Unlike Eleven, you don’t need to be a telekinetic to benefit from floating. Here’s what real people get from float therapy:

  • Reduced stress and anxiety
  • Enhanced mental clarity and creativity
  • Relief from muscle tension and pain
  • Improved sleep quality

🚀 Floating for High Performers and Everyday Heroes

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, athlete, student, or just someone who needs a break, float therapy helps you reset and recharge — no psychic powers necessary.


💫 Ready to Discover Your Inner Calm?

The Power of Infrared: Why Our Private Sauna Might Be Your New Favourite Wellness Tool

float-space-sauna-image

At Float Space, we’re all about helping you feel your best — inside and out. One of our most loved services? The private infrared sauna. And when we say private, we mean it — no strangers, no awkward silences, just peace, heat, and personal space.

Whether you’re coming solo, bringing a friend, or even a third guest (by request), our sauna space is completely yours for the session.


🌡️ What Makes Infrared Saunas So Special?

Unlike traditional steam saunas that heat the air, infrared saunas use infrared light to gently warm your body from within. It’s a soothing heat that penetrates deeper — and the health benefits are amazing.


🔥 Top Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy

✅ Burn up to 600 Calories — Just Sitting Down

A 45-minute infrared sauna session can help burn up to 600 calories, thanks to the increase in heart rate, circulation and core temperature. It’s like a passive cardio session — without the sweat of the gym.


✅ Deep Detox

Infrared heat promotes a deeper sweat, which helps release toxins, heavy metals, and impurities more effectively than traditional saunas.


✅ Relief from Aches & Muscle Tension

Sore muscles, stiff joints, or chronic pain? The deep heat increases circulation, reduces inflammation, and helps you recover faster — perfect after workouts or long days.


✅ Clearer, Glowing Skin

Infrared therapy stimulates collagen, improves skin tone, and encourages a healthy glow. It’s a relaxing beauty boost that works from the inside out.


✅ Better Sleep & Reduced Stress

Feel calmer, sleep deeper. Infrared saunas help lower cortisol levels and activate the parasympathetic nervous system, helping you unwind both mentally and physically.


🧖 Your Own Private Sauna Session

Here at Float Space, every sauna session is private.

  • Solo or with a friend (up to 2 people)
  • Want to bring a third? Just ask — we can accommodate
  • Fully private room
  • Relax with your own music, drink water, meditate, or just rest
