History

Established in 2015.

Originally established in 1986, Cloud Nine Flotation is both the newest and oldest flotation tank center in Tucson. We began in 1986 as part of The Synergy Center on Ft. Lowell and Swan. In 1989, we moved to Oregon, but returned in 2005 and started working in corporate sales. In early August of 2015, our owner had the inspiration to open Cloud Nine and just seven short weeks later a new business was reborn!

Meet the Business Owner

Kalyn W.

Business Owner

Kalyn’s studies of all things metaphysical began prior to age 15. Somewhere between seeing the deeper meaning, and no meaning of life, she discovered her purpose. At the age of 19, she realized her own innate healing ability and studied with many professional healers in and around the Los Angeles Area and beyond. In the early 80’s, Kalyn had a very successful energy healing practice in Los Angeles, and had her first flotation tank experience in early 1985. When she moved to Tucson later that year, she opened Cloud Nine Flotation Center. Later in 1986, she and 3 others founded the Synergy Center which included Floating, a Mind Gym, Massage, Colon Hydro-​Therapy, yoga, and dance. In 1990, Kalyn sold Cloud Nine and moved to Oregon to start a family. Switching gears in 2005, she had a successful career in corporate America. Having come full circle, she is now back in Tucson, offering her unique blend of energy centered healing in combination with floating.

Well I had always wanted to try this and I finally did! What a great experience… Kalyn was very nice and thoroughly explained the entire process. I didn’t want to get out when my time was up. I can see the Dark Side of the Moon float in my future and several 90 minute floats.

This was my first experience with floating, but I imagine this is exactly what it should be like. It’s a silent room with a perfectly dark tank that you float in. Kalyn is sweet and spent time going through everything so I would be most comfortable. The only thing that makes me take one star away is what others might like most: it’s in a home in a regular neighborhood. This makes it cozy and like you’re at home, but for me (keeping in mind, I went here with the intention of easing anxiety) it seemed a bit sketchy at first. Call me paranoid, but this in combination with one statement in the waiver saying something along the lines of «I agree to drop any claims I have against the owner» came up in my head while I was alone with my thoughts in a dark enclosed tank. So that part heightened my anxiety a little bit, but now that I’ve survived one visit, I think my next one will hold a little less anxiety ;) I came here using a groupon because I was a litle too skeptical of the benefits of floating to pay full price. Having gone once, I can see where the benefits could come from but think I will need at least one more session before really getting into «the zone».

Floating is great! Recommend it for everyone! Rooms are clean, staff is friendly. Kayln (the owner) makes you feel right at home. She offers different sound experiences while in the float tank. I’ve had 5 floats so far and they get better every time. My last float was coupled with a massage. Masseuse was experienced and did a great job. I was literally on cloud nine.

Yesterday I went for a flotation followed by a sound therapy session. I was impressed by how clean and serene the studio is, and also by how Kalyn educates guests on the hows and whys — she doesn’t just dunk you in the tank and leave I actually liked the sound session best — it is both sound and Reiki healing. Didn’t know what to expect, but walked out feeling so calm and centered and peaceful. Om!

My first experience at Cloud9 made me a little anxious at first, since I had never experience flotation in a tank. However, after the first 15 minutes in the flotation tank, I started to relax and feel comfortable inside, in total darkness and silence, floating and drifting into a deep relaxing state of mind. About 5 minutes before the end of the 90 minutes, I was alerted my time was coming to an end, by classical music coming on, gently and softly to awaken me. I found the door opening (I was apprehensive about that in the beginning) and got out to shower off the salt water. I was feeling completely relaxed, and I had a calm state of mind. Actually, I couldn’t believe I had been in the tank for 90 minutes, since I was apprehensive about being able to stay inside for the full amount of time, as well as being able to locate the opening to get out! I noticed, I felt rather calm for about a week afterwards. I read that one experience is really not enough to reap all the benefits of this type of therapy, so I will be going back! Give it a try!

This was my first flotation session and I loved the whole experience! Kalyn is super sweet and has a great vibe, and she knows everything there is to know about the benefits of floating. This center is located in a residential structure but is a great balance of comfy and professional. Everything was clean and fresh, and it was just an all-​around peaceful environment. The float itself was even more relaxing and enlightening than I could have hoped! I definitely recommend Cloud Nine Flotation!

My husband works construction and moved about 7,000 lbs of block yesterday, which brought him hone with a couple aches, to say the least. He woke up this morning with no pain and full mobility. Thanks Kalyn!

I was a little apprehensive and excited since I had never done this before. I was absolutely very pleasantly surprised. Kalyn is very professional and the entire process was confidential and private. The float itself was wonderful. It took me a few minutes to adjust to the sensory deprivation other than my overly excited breathing. Once I calmed down the float was magical. I got into a very comfortable position and drifted off. I cleared my mind and slept as deep as I ever have. I was surprised when the music signalling the end of my float gently came into my consciousness. I emerged from the tank fresh and rested. That same feeling of peace and restfulness carried on throughout the entire day.

Kalyn Wolf has thought of everything from the visually calming music as you enter the facility, calming colors, and the colorful shower head. I love that shower head! I’m bit claustrophobic, so I had my concerns. I found that as long as I closed my eyes and went with it, I was fine. It was very relaxing. The salt water creates a buoyancy that caused me to feel like I was floating on a mattress. You feel quite well supported. That was another concern I had going into my float, was support. A wonderful, lovely, experience!

I lead a busy life, but carving out an hour last Tuesday night to float at Cloud Nine was like taking a week’s vacation in paradise — I came home relaxed and revitalized and couldn’t wipe the grin off my face!
The facility is comfortably housed in Kalyn Wolf’s home on Tucson’s east side. Wolf is a charming gal with decades of floatation and energy healing experience, so she quickly helps new clients feel at ease.
The bathroom is clean and well-​equipped; wait until you turn on the shower (it’s fabulous)! Wolf provided silicon earplugs (to keep the upcoming saltwater out) and vaseline for any skin abrasions. After a shower and shampoo, I was ready for the flotation experience.
The tank is a cross between a pyramid and a pup tent in a serene room filled with an assortment of art available for purchase; the effect was soothing overall. I chose to start and end my session with with music, pressed a button on the speaker, climbed into the tank and closed the door.
Immediately, the tank seemed to disappear as I adjusted to the utter darkness. The water was indistinguishable from my own skin, and the soothing music allowed me to float into complete relaxation. This meditative state is unlike what I can achieve on dry land; it really is a short-​cut to my own center and the universe beyond. I don’t really remember the music fading out, but when it came on to indicate an hour had passed, it startled me — I had really been someplace else.
Sloughing off the water so as to keep most of it in the tank, I climbed out and headed back to that terrific shower to get the salt off my skin and hair, grinning all the while.
If you floated back in the day, you know the sensation. If you haven’t tried it yet, make an appointment at Cloud Nine. It’s unlike anything else!
