Frequently Asked Questions (Float Therapy)
WHAT IF I DON'T FLOAT?
Though you may be challenged to float in other bodies of water, we assure you that the Float Pod is more buoyant than the Dead Sea. Due to the concentration of water to salt ratio you will absolutely float in this body of 10 inch water.
ARE THERE ANY CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR FLOAT THERAPY?
Revelations Center encourages clients to check with their physician when beginning any new health regimen, such as float therapy.
However, floating is SAFE for just about everyone.
Those with epileptic conditions and/or kidney disease (as the kidneys are responsible for processing Magnesium) are asked to take extra precautions in consulting with their physician prior to floating.
CAN I FLOAT WHILE PREGNANT?
ABSOLUTELY! We encourage those who are pregnant to experience floating, as the weightless effect can provide relief from the extra pressure and weight on a mother's body.

HOW CAN I USE THE FLOAT POD IF I'M CLAUSTROPHOBIC?
Revelations Center is fully committed to creating a comfortable flotation experience for all of our clients. We made a conscious decision to incorporate the Float Pod because of it's versatility. During the float clients are in full control of their Float Pod lid, which may be left open, partially open or closed. Each pod has a multi-colored LED light which again may be left on or turned off by the client during their float. The client may even provide their own music for their session.
You're always in control of your environment and those who have extreme claustrophobia have reported experiencing no issues with their time in the pod. Should you have further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

CAN I DROWN IF I FALL ASLEEP?
Our Float Pod contains only 10 inches of water, so you are not required to know how to swim. The solution of water to salt will support you no matter how much you may shift in the Float Pod. Though it is difficult to accidentally flip onto your stomach, if this were to occur the discomfort from the extremely high concentration of salt to your eyes, nose and mouth will get your immediate attention.
So RELAX and fully release your fears and worries of dozing off.
DO I HAVE TO STAY IN THE FLOAT POD THE WHOLE TIME?
The client is in control of their floating experience. There are no locks are latches on the pod so you may get out at anytime. However, we encourage you to stay in the full 60 min. to experience all that floating has to offer. Floating is a practice and is most effective when experienced regularly. Due to our chronic state of over-stimulation (physical/mental/emotional) it may take persistence to retrain and teach your body/mind to release and let go.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE-EFFECTS?
Float therapy encourages the body to accelerate healing. Whenever our body shifts from a chronically stressed state into a healing state we may experience a "healing crisis." When a healing crisis occurs the symptoms are typically mild and aid the body in establishing homeostasis and detoxification. We strongly advise drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your float, as well as immediately following.
WHAT IF I GET SALT IN MY EYES?
Though we encourage you to avoid touching your face during your float this may happen (even to the best of us). We provide a spray bottle with fresh water in the Float Pod for you to flush your eyes.
DO I GET DEHYDRATED FROM SOAKING FOR SO LONG?
No, actually your skin loves the Epsom Salt. Floating will leave your skin silky smooth.
HOW DO YOU CLEAN YOUR POD?
Revelations Center maintains compliance with stringent health and safety regulations. The water in the Float Pod is mostly salt-- a solution which is naturally sterile. Between each float, when the Float Pod is not in use, the state of the art purification system purifies the water. The water is purified 4 times with a 5-micron filter and both Ozone and UV Light technology to disinfect and purify the water between each session.
Our high standards and commitment to sanitation ensures that each client will experience a pristine pod for each float.
