Description

Specialties

Floating is a practice where you enter into a float tank (also called an isolation tank or sensory deprivation tank) which is a well-​engineered enclosed tub that has about 10″ of water in it as well as about 800 lbs. of dissolved Epsom salts.

The individual lies down in the water and floats in the nude. The water is heated to the same temperature as the surface of your skin so that when the water settles and you remain relaxed and still, you do no really feel the water anymore.

The tank is light-​proof and sound proof and has a neutral smell. All forces of gravity on the musculoskeletal system are eliminated from the extreme positive buoyancy; so imagine a space where you don’t feel anything, you don’t see or hear anything. The tank’s environment is designed to allow for a minimal amount of sensory input from entering into your nervous system. This environment then has a plethora of benefits and applications for health, personal development, spirituality and well-​being.

History

Established in 2015.

Float House South Surrey is part of the Float House family, an independent business created out of a passion for what floating may do for an individual and for the greater whole.

Float tanks have been around for decades and have a lot of peer reviewed research showing a plethora of benefits. There were even major contributions to this body of work out of UBC with Dr. Peter Suedfeld, professor of Psychology.

We are excited to bring floating into the South Surrey/​White Rock area and hope you enjoy the experience of nothing.
