Being in the pod is more like floating in outer space than being shut in a box. You’re always in control of your environment; you can leave a light on, crack the pod door and listen to music or a mediation to help you feel comfortable. Even people with extreme claustrophobia have reported having no problems with their time in the pod.

Several times per week we perform a very in-depth maintenance of our tanks. We add fresh epsom salt daily and water twice per week. Between the super-concentrated salt solution, a UV light disinfectant filter, and 10-micron cartridge filter, these are probably the cleanest recreational water sources you’ll encounter!

Don’t drink coffee for several hours beforehand (it can make your system jittery). Also, don’t shave or wax since the salt water can irritate your skin. Eating a light meal about an hour to 90 minutes ahead of time stops your stomach from grumbling while you float. Other than that, there’s no specific preparation needed.
-
If you have longer hair, you may want to bring a comb or brush. Also, something to put your contact lenses into while you’re in the tank. Other than that, we provide everything you need (towels, earplugs, bodywash/shampoo, blow dryer and other hygiene items).
