Between each float the water is passed 6 times through the filtration system which includes a 1 micron filter, UV light, and Hydrogen Peroxide is added to boost the disinfecting power of the UV light. See this journal entry (https://www.ogofloat.ca/post/2015/06/01/cleanlinessoffloattanks)for a more thorough examination of tank cleanliness.

oGoFloat offers up to 90 minute sessions for you to relax harder. Calming music will gently bring you out of your experience and let you know when time is up. You are always in control of your float and you can call it early if you'd like. Extended floats can be arranged. See this journal entry t(https://www.ogofloat.ca/post/2015/07/01/why90minutes)o dive deeper into why we chose a 90 minute default time.

No you float in the buff.

Most people have no problem once they see the tank and actualize the experience. There is far more room to move around and be free in a float tank than in a vehicle, so if you are able to be in a vehicle we have faith in your ability to manage a float tank. You are welcome to leave the door open and the lights on. You are always in control of your experience. It's bigger on the inside!

Some people fall asleep in the tank, some do not. Gentle music will wake you up and signal the end of your float. Even the heaviest sleepers, while wearing ear plugs will awaken.

Yes! Floating decreases swelling and relieves pressure from your joints which is very welcomed by growing bodies. In the tank there are no sounds other than your heart beat, and possibly a second heart beat! If you have any specific concerns you should consult your physician prior to floating.

Yes, just use the same precautions you would in a pool (tampon or cup). See the journal entry titled Float Like A Girl (https://www.ogofloat.ca/post/2016/11/11/ladies-ladies-ladies)for more information on this topic.

We have a page dedicated to addressing as many possible float contradictions and common inquiries possible. Read it here. (https://www.ogofloat.ca/who-shouldnt-float) TLDR: Do not float if you have an infectious disease, open skin wounds or incontinence issues. If you have a fresh tattoo it's recommended to wait up to 6 weeks. Do not float with fresh hair dye - your hair must be able to pass a white towel test. If you are epileptic, diabetic, have kidney disease, chronic heart disease, or have a condition which may be adversely affected by cutaneous absorption of magnesium seek the opinion of your physician.

Epsom baths at home are wonderful, but entirely different than a float tank. For one, it’s a lot more Epsom salt. There’s almost 1,000 pounds of Epsom salt in a float tank. You probably can’t fully stretch out your body in a bathtub, and it’s not continuously heated to maintain temperature, lightproof or soundproof. This is not your average tub.

No, not at all. The high density of Epsom Salts prevents your skin from pruning and feels amazing for your skin.

Extremely unlikely. You float on the surface with your face out of the water. If you fell asleep and managed to turn over onto your belly the salt solution would sting yours eyes immediately waking you.

Not much. Bring a water bottle for post float hydration. If you wear contact lenses bring a case & solution, or wear glasses. Soap, shampoo, conditioner, towels & ear plugs are provided. Basic beauty supplies such as Q-tips, comb & blow dryer are available. Feel free to bring any specialty products you wish to use post float.

Each float centre will have their own rules and regulations, but yes children can float, with parental consent. Children as young as 6 have floated with excellent results!

Yes! .... and no. We use music to signal the end of your float so there needs to be a period of silence so we can tell you when your float is over. Upon request, we can play music for the first 15-30 minutes and then it fades into silence. The goal of the float tank is to reduce your sensory input - trust us when we tell you silence is the sweetest sound.

Not yet. There are some who receive substantial medical benefit from floating, and with the help of their M.D., have been able to receive coverage from their benefits company. This is on a case by case basis. If you are seeking float therapy for a medical need, with low feasibility, visit our Community Float Fund (https://www.ogofloat.ca/communityfloatfund)to get started.

Yes absolutely! We would love to help you build your salty dreams. We learned so much building oGoFloat we now offer consulting services to individuals and businesses looking to get into #SaltLife. Reach out (https://www.ogofloat.ca/contact)let us know how we can help you!

It depends on the disability. There are stairs to enter the building, and getting in and out of the tank requires a moderate level of strength and mobility. Given those restrictions, at this time, we're not able to accommodate people in wheelchairs. We genuinely hope that the future will offer float therapy in hospitals, physio, and rehabilitation centres where staff and facilities are adequately equipped and trained. Generally speaking, if you can get up off the floor with the assistance of a chair, you'll be able to float.
