ABOUT US
Our mission is to provide a serene float setting where anyone can achieve mental and physical well-being, explore consciousness and inspire creativity in and out of the float tank.
We believe that the practice of floating can have profoundly beneficial effects on all who are willing to get into the tank.
All of us at Sage look forward to hearing about the positive impacts this unique form of self-care has on the Santa Cruz community that we love so much. With great gratitude and enthusiasm, thank you for checking out Sage Float Spa.
We’ll see you soon!

Why Sage?
As a word, sage comes forth with many meanings and interpretations. In addition to being recognized as a sacred, cleansing, purifying, and protective plant, sage has been used for centuries by philosophers and spiritualists to denote those who have reached the highest states of spiritual and philosophical knowledge.
With this is mind, we chose Sage as a representation of the instinctive alliance between nature and knowledge. This alignment reminds us to connect to the natural side of ourselves and tap into our own inherent wisdom. We have the power to restore and regenerate ourselves and exist in a state where we are truly able to heal, inspire and explore.
