"From start to finish, my first FLOAT Quad Cities experience was divine. Upon arriving I was quickly escorted to my changing/shower room that led into the FLOAT sensory deprivation tank (loaded with 20k pounds of Epsom Salts, mind you!), and given a very informative orientation.
I don't know quite how to explain my 60-minute FLOAT experience, itself. I chose to have earplugs in with the low hum of meditation music, and no lights. You'd be surprised how buoyant our bodies are in salt water! The facilities are impeccable + sanitary. Beautiful + peaceful. Upon entering FLOAT Quad Cities, you will be met by Pink Himalayan salt chunks, authentic + pointed quartz crystals, peaceful music, and a friendly employee.
The "scene" of this place is best described in one word: SERENITY. Personally, I struggle with anxiety + depression (as we ALL do, I'm finding as of late), and with the mental pain comes the physical pain. I was hoping to reach a point in my session where I could let go of all the extraneous + weighty thoughts that clog up my mind.
I wanted to reach a place of complete reception. I can safely say that I was able to reach a point in those 60 minutes where I "let go". My brain started acting differently, as it was shooting endorphins throughout my entire neurological structure. All of the outside world's "noise" was silenced both on the external level + in my own mind.
I could feel my spine "crack" a bit, as my entire back realigned itself, naturally. (This further strengthens my belief that our bodies know exactly what to do to heal it, only if we allow it) A+ A+ A+. I can't say enough amazing things about FLOAT Quad Cities + my experience.
I would recommend this to ANYONE. If you are hesitant with "small spaces" of any kind, no worries! These are not "capsule tanks". They are Float Rooms. Rooms you can stand in. Please don't let that deter you from what I found to be one of the best things I could've done for myself. Thank you, FLOAT QC! And side note: your crystals are amazing!" -Adam Cerny
