New to floating? Start with three
One float introduces it.
Three helps it click.
Float therapy, often called floatation therapy, takes place in warm Epsom-salt water while light, sound and gravity are dialled down. Your first session introduces the experience; across three floats, the unfamiliar begins to feel familiar.

Why start with three?
One introduces it. Three helps it click.
Floating has a learning curve. Three visits give your mind and body the repetition needed to recognise the space, settle sooner and discover what a regular float practice can feel like.

Your first visit
Private, spacious and always in your control.
We explain everything before your session, then give you complete privacy. There is no single right way to float—adjust the light, music and lid until the space feels right for you.

Evidence, without the hard sell
Read the research in plain English.
Explore what published studies suggest about Floatation-REST—from calmer states and reduced stress to the measurable shift that can happen while you float.
Acute experience
Stress and anxiety
Several controlled and observational studies report short-term reductions in self-reported stress or anxiety after floating.
Measured during floating
Physiological downshift
One crossover study measured changes in blood pressure and breathing during Floatation-REST compared with a relaxing film.

Questions before you book.
Clear answers, so your first visit feels straightforward.
Is a float pod the same as a sensory deprivation tank?
People use float pod, float tank, floatation tank and sensory deprivation tank to describe the same kind of low-stimulation floating experience. At FLOAT ONE, your session takes place in a private room with a spacious Orbit pod, and you stay in control of the lid, light and music.
Will the float pod feel claustrophobic?
Our Orbit pod is spacious, and you remain in control. You can keep the lid fully open, leave the internal light on and end the session whenever you choose.
What do I need to bring?
Bring yourself and anything you normally use after a shower. Towels, earplugs, shower products and the essentials for your float are provided in your private room.
What should I wear for a float?
The room is private, so you can float without swimwear or wear a swimsuit if that feels more comfortable. Choose the option that lets you relax.
How long is a float session?
We offer 60, 90 and 120-minute float sessions. The new-customer starter pack includes three private 60-minute floats.
Can two people float together?
Yes. Our Couples Float is a shared experience for two people in the same spacious Orbit pod. Single floats are private, and two separate appointments can also be arranged when availability allows.
What about small cuts or sensitive skin?
Salt water can sting fresh cuts, grazes and irritated skin. We provide sachets of petroleum jelly so you can create a barrier over small cuts. Postpone your session if you have an open or infected wound, and contact the centre if you are unsure.
Is float therapy right for everyone?
Float therapy is a wellbeing experience, not medical treatment. If you are pregnant, managing a health condition, taking medication or are unsure whether floating is appropriate for you, ask a qualified clinician before booking and contact the centre to discuss the practical details.
Why might I feel tired after a float?
People respond differently. After a quiet, low-stimulation session, some guests prefer a few unhurried minutes before returning to their day. If you feel unwell or have symptoms that concern you, seek appropriate medical advice.
Does float therapy work?
FLOAT ONE offers a private, low-stimulation wellbeing experience rather than medical treatment. Research includes promising findings and important limitations, so floating should not be presented as a cure or replacement for professional care. Individual experiences vary.
Can I float while pregnant?
Pregnancy and post-partum needs vary. Ask your midwife, doctor or another qualified clinician whether floating is appropriate for you before booking, and contact the centre to discuss the practical details.
Where is FLOAT ONE, and is parking available?
FLOAT ONE is at Unit 22, Roadway 1, Morris Park, 37 Rosyth Road, Glasgow G5 0YD. Visits are by appointment, and free on-site parking is available.
