I tried something new yesterday, an experience that came highly recommended. It turned out to be…read moresuch a remarkable experience that I think I need to share it. I spent an hour in a tank today. Huh? I stepped into a float tank where I experienced something called "flotation therapy." It's relaxation through sensory deprivation and believe me, it is relaxing. What is a float tank? Think of a shallow bathtub inside a phone booth. The tub is filled with water that is charged with Epsom salts. The salt content makes you buoyant so your body floats easily in ten inches of saltwater. I arrived early for my appointment because it was my first visit. There is paperwork to complete (electronically, welcome to the 21st Century) and I sat in the relaxation room to do so. The spa is a warm and welcoming atmosphere with friendly guides who explain everything you need to know about your service. I entered the therapy room and in a cozy area, I quickly undressed. I stepped into the shower and washed off the daily grind, then carefully stepped into the chamber. It is lit with soft, blue light and relaxing synthesized music plays softly. I switched off the light but since music is a major part of my life, I let it play. (If you prefer, you can shut it off or you can play your own music through your cell phone via cable connection.) The experience of floating in total darkness is weird at first, but it didn't take long before I could feel every muscle relax and let go. I could also clearly hear the music underwater when my ears slipped below the surface. (Optional earplugs are provided and no, my face was never near submersion.) I had no sense of time passing. In the dark, and it is very dark inside the chamber, I felt sensations of movement. The chamber is, of course, small so my fingers, toes and the top of my head sometimes contacted the edge of the tub but I felt a sensation of motion like I was floating in circles. If I had to compare it to something, I would say it felt the way I imagine it would feel to be an astronaut, floating around the International Space Station or a Gemini capsule. My mind was racing for about half of the session but in a good way. Eventually, I felt a sense of peace sweep over me. Others who have experienced floating say they actually fall asleep. I don't remember falling asleep, but I do remember being very relaxed and all sense of time was lost. When the time limit was reached, a white light gently illuminated the chamber, signaling that my time was up. I stepped into the shower and washed off the salt, then quickly dressed and returned to the lobby. For that 75 minutes, the world simply melted away and I was simply floating in space, in my own private universe. Afterward, I was totally relaxed and could understand how a strand of spaghetti feels. I look forward to my next session, too! If you feel like you want to try this unique relaxation therapy, send me a private message and I'll give you the pertinent details. It's a luxury you owe to yourself.

I have been going to Float Life sporadically for a couple years…read more Here are a couple things I really like. 1. They say my name and greet me when I come in using my name. That is customer service 101 that many places fail at. They got it nailed. Helps folks feel like they belong and they are special. They also smile...kind of a big deal. 2. They continually improve. Each time I go I see small changes that help my experience to be better. Better shelves that my jewelry doesn't fall through, better head floaty things, moving the spray bottle and washcloth to a better spot in a salt emergency. 3. They often offer deals that really are kind to my weak budget so I can have those champagne experiences on a beer budget. 4. They have a massage therapist onsite so I can really do some serious self-care and have a float and a massage in one day. Glad they are here and will keep going.

hands down the best thing i've ever done for my stress related anxiety. I called the facility and…read morethey were able to fit me in a couple hours later. I arrived with no problem and was able to check in right away. Tyler, one of the owners, then gave me the option to chose from either water, coffee, or tea and I chose water, which I would suggest everyone do so as the the salt does get to you after a while and you do dry up. he showed me into my room and after he asked why I was there I told him to release stress and hopefully do something good for my back. he then kindly said he'd be right back and brought me a foamy, somewhat like a traveling pillow, to use rather than the ones that are provided by default. I thank him for that as I tried both and the one he brought me was more relaxing. he then gave me tips and tricks to optimize my time there. if you wear contacts, I suggest you don't! also DO NOT freshly shave before going. I did and while it did burn, it did go away but I wish I hadn't. also bring water like I said before because the salt does dry you up. I will be definitely coming back. while i was pretty nervous about closing the lid all the way and turning off the music and the light like he suggested, i'm glad i did because after i did that, I felt SO relaxed to the point that I even cried. a definite recommendation to everyone looking to try something relaxing out of the ordinary spa.

Such a cool experience! This was my first time in a sensory deprivation like space and I loved…read moreevery second. When we were greeted, they gave us a great run down of the space, how to use it and what to expect. I loved that we had different options while we were floating. You could listen to calming music or turn it off, and you could keep the light on or turn it off. Everything is up to your preference. You start and end your session by taking a shower. Soap, shampoo and conditioner are all provided for you. They also offer styling tools like combs and blow dryers if you need to use them after. All you really need to bring is a change of clothes if you want them. I was nervous about being too anxious while floating, but I found the experience super calming. I ended up falling asleep for the last half of my float after turning the lights off. This is definitely something I would love to do again. If you're on the fence, it's worth trying at least once!

This is my third time floating at Float Milwaukee and I honestly cannot say enough good things! I…read morewas very skeptical at first and wasn't very interested- I love the water but mainly I have a very hard time sitting still and winding down. I also thought to myself, who the hell can float for 60 minutes?! Needless to say, I had it all wrong! I have never felt so relaxed in my life! The entire experience from start to finish is 5-stars for me. The facility is clean, I appreciate the amenities, and the staff is friendly. And 60 minutes is not too long after all. After my float, my body and mind feel so relaxed and rested. If I had the option to float weekly, I would!

My experience floating was great! I will agree that the owner is a bit unreliable (he is also very…read morenice). To the reviewer who said it wasn't life changing and was going to fight the owner, if you read his other reviews you'll see he claims Miller Lite as 'the best beer ever invented.' So don't put too much stock in his review of something that requires being open-minded. If you're willing to go outside your comfort zone and not immediately judge a book by its cover, give floating a shot. Joe, the owner is helpful, encouraging and kind...when he shows up.

This comment is based more on the business, and not on the actual floating experience. The floating…read moreexperience is however you make it. I can credit Evolve for doing a good job with the consistency of the temperature. My body, the air, and the water were all within a degree or two. The tank was pretty quiet too. At first, it smelt like old gloves, but I guess I got used to it. My experience as relaxing and curiously like taking a nap. It was neat, but not like it was life changing. I can see why this has not really swept the nation. An hour is a good time. Evolve is no spa. Not even close. I would think I would have been just as comfortable if it was in some guys basement. The center is a business building in the middle of Waukesha. Parking is in back. The Easter Seals will call to give you a ticket if you do not park in the right spot. The Easter Seals are so annoying. Good cause, horribly ran organization. Evolve is set up it what appears to be an old rental office. Besides the tank, I am guessing everything else is from a garage sale and hardly sanitary. The shower is installed so no water hits below your waist. It is really small. Not classy at all. Leave your wallet purse in the car, because there is no place to lock anything. My biggest gripe was that the guy who was working really gave me grief about my Groupon. He made me get my phone and prove I bought it, because the print out I had "was unredeemable." He was not cool about it either. He wanted me to pay for it and dispute the purchase with Groupon. I probably would have picked a fought him if he would gave me any more grief. He did eventually take the Groupon off my phone. (I do not think this was the owner, I think it was just a kid hired to sit around and keep the place open.) All in all- I do not regret going. Evolve is the only float tank in town as far as I know. If I ever would go float again, I would go to a spa somewhere, for a better experience. The price was fair at Evolve with a Groupon, but they will not be able to stay open the way they are running the business now. It does not seem to be set up to cater to clean people. Hopefully they can get some more captital to clean up operation.

I felt very relaxed leaving the facial. The setting is very nice, if a little like a maze, and everyone is very friendly. I liked how bright and airy the top floor felt, and the locker room was clean. I'm not entirely sure I like that they put a robe and shoes in the locker for you, since I am not a one-size fits all body, but overall it was relaxing and nice.

My recent experience with the FactorFive Renew Dermal Solution Peel at Spargo Spa and Salon turned…read moreout to be far from what I expected. Initially intending to continue IPL treatments, I was persuaded to try this new peel that was marketed as gentle and convenient with no downtime. I found no reviews online regarding this product and put my trust in the personnel working in the Medispa at Spargo. There were four sessions spaced a week apart. Despite following all post-treatment instructions--applying the recommended Factor 5 facial mask to soothe my skin and maintain hydration--I encountered significant problems. Rather than seeing healthier, rejuvenated skin, I developed large red spots and severe dryness after each peel. I was told my face would look so much better after a week or two. The discomfort was substantial, and even with additional application of lotion and Aquaphor, my skin's condition worsened. Makeup failed to conceal the marks and I was told after the 3rd treatment that I needed to do 4 even though I planned on stopping due to the effects on my face. Although Spargo refunded the cost of my final treatment, the damage is more than when I started. I was hoping to get rid of age/sun marks on my face this product was terrible for me.

Honestly I hate to give a negative review. But you can't rely solely on your products to create a…read moregreat guest experience and get a gold star for hospitality. The location was clean and everything functioned generally appropriately, but I was chilly the whole time while floating (full body goosebumps) so maybe it was just me, but could not really get the peace I was seeking. Additionally, the music in the tank never started/was broken so 3/4 way though the lights and music came on, which the staff said would indicate the session is over. I did think it was early so turned both off, but they started again so I got out. When I was shampooing my hair I got a knock on the door that I still had time left to float. I was already warmed up in the shower so opted not to go back inside. They gave me 10$ offer because they said the music and lights were malfunctioning. Not the worst thing ever - stuff happens. But , when I first got to the location for my appt, I arrived to the address that was on Apple Maps (the same place I clicked where I initially booked the apt) it took me to the "wrong place" they informed me upon calling. I had walked to the location initially but then was informed the correct location was 5 miles away. I almost cancelled because I didn't want to start a spa moment on a negative foot. But I rallied and managed to make my way there by borrowing a friend's car, and there was zero acknowledgement of the call when I arrived. Not looking for a discount but at least a normal conversation! I chalked it up to them being new and still working out the kinks, but pretty sure this location is over 7 years old. At least put the correct address in your initial confirmation message with a warning to use google maps vs Apple Maps since it was clear they've had that discussion many times before. Alternatively, offer a great product that no one can argue.
