Just finished my first float session this afternoon, and feel awesome! I went for a full hour in…read moretotal sensory deprivation (no lights or music) and came out thinking that it not nearly a full hour -- the time just zoomed by. Even though this was my first time, I jumped right into the complete immersive experience. I've always wanted to try it and it did not disappoint. For those who aren't sure, there are options for soft lights and music, and different float times. One hour is fine for me. Get to the location, and first thing is don't forget to put the ear plugs in place. Next is a shower to get all the gunk out of your hair and cleanse the skin Get in the float tank and let it take you away! Getting out I felt calm and totally relaxed and my skin feels silky! The staff is friendly and welcoming. Do note that this is a local family owned business (yay small business owners!!)! Stop in during the business hours and they will gladly take you on a tour and answer all your questions about float and all their other services!

Overview: Met both the owners James & Eric- both very knowledgeable, professional, polite, and…read moregenuinely seem to care about their guests. I got a monthly float membership, great value. When I recently went, brought my partner and treated him to his first float session ever! I used the gravity massage chair while waiting; it tilts back and is full body adjustable- probably one of the best massage chairs I've ever experienced. Did ~13min massage with the lights off and door shut, so relaxing. Eric kindly checked and allowed me to slip in a quick cold plunge session as I was on the waitlist (had forgotten to book my sessions further in advance). Especially after a hot shower immediately after, felt great and so relaxed the rest of day and entire next day! (Non-float services are 30% off as an add on if you have the membership) My partner enjoyed his first float experience. We're planning to go back for couples fire & ice (contrast therapy) session and float after. Love: 1. The facility and all equipment looks super modern, clean, and they clean each room between each guest stocking with fresh towels, slippers, you can request a robe. 2. Love that everyone who visits is treated as a guest in a home and they have a policy where they do not try to upsell you anytime during your visit. 3. Enjoyed the genuine convos with the owners- unlike many other small biz owners, they aren't rushing you nor absorbed in their work when you're there- they remain present, attentive, and open to chatting. Would I Recommend? Absolutely, I travel over an hour just to come here & it's well worth it. The float tank, contrast therapy, and gravity massage chair is a must try! Suggestions for Improvement: No complaints here. Perhaps a branded small welcome gift for first time visitors? (It adds a nice touch, helps stay the biz stay top of mind- also more of a marketing thing haha)

As a customer since Light Side first opened back in 2016, I took a break during covid, but have recently returned (in June and July 2021) and I'm glad I did because it's better than ever! There's massage chairs, a super covid-killing air filtration machine, better/easier ear plugs, tea, water and coloring, delta8 products for sale, and did I mention, merch!?! Tom is always efficient, laid-back and respectful, he seems happy to chat if you're in the mood or to let you relax in silence if that's more your vibe. 10/10: will be going again!

I was able to book online the first time and was so excited to try it out but a few days after booking, I received 3 emails saying my 3 service appointments were cancelled. When I go online now to book new appointments, it sends you to a login page. Once I login, there is no option to get to a booking link. I have left 2-3 voicemails and sent several emails requesting assistance but have never heard back from anyone. Yesterday I went by the location in the hopes of getting in-person assistance and the doors were locked! I am starting to wonder if they do not wish to honor the gift certificate or their customer service is just horrible!
