My friend got me a float and I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to do it. Once I adjusted to calm, peace, and quiet, I didn't want to get out. The infrared sauna is a great thing to do before the float. It helps to relax any physical stress issues. Staff was friendly and helpful and understood that I was a little apprehensive about whether or not I could do this. My sleep improved as well as the busyness in my head. I've added this to self-care practice.

My mother and I went there during the weekend of my sister's graduation from Yale's School of Management(Go Bulldogs!). We booked while we were in Philly for our layover and had trouble scheduling online so we called the office. Olivia immediately scheduled us for a full spa day on Sunday and then we decided to do a separate float on Friday before dinner. Olivia was so kind and happy to help us. When we arrived on Friday we were greeted by Jade to prepare for our float session to sign our waivers. We were taken to a beautiful room with cozy blankets, salt lamps and calming lighting to begin our journey. After watching the informational video for our float session, Jade walked us back to the our separate rooms. The space was so clean and welcoming. We each had our own individuals rooms with a shower, float bath, robe, slippers and toiletries. It was an expectational experience. When we came back on Sunday for our full spa day which included a 3 min cryotherapy session, 1 hour float, 1 hour massage with Jalisa and Stephen followed by an hour sauna session. The deep tissue massages by Stephen and Jalisa were otherworldly. I usually ask for a deep tissue massage but never felt that folks were able to get deep enough, this was not the case. Both my mother and myself felt that every knot we had in our bodies was released and cared for during our session. There were multiple times I felt that multiple hands were on me though it was Stephen and my mom felt the same way with Jalisa. All staff at Ripple Float ensured we were comfortable, hydrated with their many free selections of tea, water and kombucha (available for purchase). We are both looking forward to returning for another full spa day when we are back in the city.

Also what I got was a gift certificate for Mother's Days to use and included was sauna which I informed them I couldn't use unfortunately due to medical reasons and was told by manager I can upgrade the package whenever I'm ready to book the session for a float instead. After my massage I went to the desk and asked about the float and the benefits of it she gave me details then goes on to say "you're going to have to pay for the upgrade now because it's a manager special and I have to do it while he is here to put it in the system" which is total bs but hey .... I ended up regifting the sauna to someone else cause I would never go here again.

There was adequate parking available specifically for a few local businesses including Rise Above. Upon entering the building, I noticed how beautiful the decor was. We were greeted immediately and the guy working was very calm and easy going. He walked us through start to finish and allowed us to see which room we wanted because there was no one else scheduled for our time slot (3 rooms total). The choices were a pod that closes and opens automatically, a large open room (no walls surrounding the "bathtub" except for the room that you're in, and the extra large "bathtub" that is enclosed with walls and doors. Each room has a shower with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, ear plugs, Vaseline (for cuts before getting in), face wipes, towels, and a spray bottle with water in case you get salt in your eyes. He gave us 5 minutes before our start time to shower off any oils before getting in and 5 minutes after to shower off the salt (and told us to take our time when getting out, no need to rush). There was music in the beginning and at the end to get you started/let you know when your time is up and the lights turn on/off automatically. There is a help button in case you run into any issues. The tank itself is really neat and I was able to shut my mind off pretty quickly. The room is pitch black and there are no lights. You are completely deprived of reality and you are there floating in just the water and in silence. It's an insane experience floating in water and being so relaxed that I may have forgotten that I had legs and that I wasn't floating through space or a river. Your mind really does change during this experience. I am in complete relaxation mode even hours after experiencing the deprivation tank. I can't wait to go again and maybe even add a massage to the package next time!

Tyler had greeted me at the main lobby and was so polite. I was intrigued, as it was my first time there, so I asked a bunch of questions about the place and he was so helpful and was very accommodating. He took me for a tour before I started my infrared sauna session and showed me all the different things that Float 41 had to offer. We started with taking a peek at the fire and ice plunge room, and then we walked to the common area where he offered us tea and relaxation if we wanted to stay there after our experience. The room was just so zen and peaceful. He continued the tour and showed us the float rooms which looked very interesting and will have to try the next time. Our stop ended at our infrared sauna session where we were able to relax and change into robes and given slippers to go inside with. As we stepped inside I noticed it was nice and toasty but I was able to breathe still. It wasn't like a regular sauna where it feels stuffy. This was enjoyable and actually breathable. The session lasted 45 minutes and I felt so rejuvenated after. We were able to shower and we were given water and towels to freshen up after. The experience felt cozy and comfortable and I really enjoyed my time.

You know a massage therapist knows her/his stuff when a therapist massages an area you didn't even think needed to be massaged out until he or she does that magic. This place truly is amazing. The ambiance and environment is beautiful and peaceful and the staff are highly trained, knowledgeable, highly hospitable, and welcoming.

The guy at the front desk was very welcoming, he greeted us as soon as we walked in. He told us it would just be a few minutes while he got the rooms ready for us. He was very thorough in explaining the process and offered us waters and showed us where we could get some should we need more during our time there. The place was also very clean. They provide robes, towels, slippers, pretty much everything you need. I did the two part experience, starting with the sauna and finishing with the float. I started with the sauna where which was 45 mins then moved to the float which was 1 hour. The only issue I had here was that the sauna room was too small. I was unable to fully lay/stretch out on the bench, which would've made for a much more relaxing experience. Instead, I had to sit the 45 mins with my knee bent and the bench was hard on my butt despite them having a towel down. The float was by far my favorite part of the experience. It's right across from the sauna room. The guy again comes to take you there and explain the process in detail. There's a shower for you to use before you get in the float and to get your body ready and acclimated to the temperature in the float. There's float has light and relaxing music, both of which you have control of if you want it or not. I turned the light off initially but it was way too dark for me lol I felt trapped so I opted for lights on. The process was so very relaxing that I even fell asleep for a while. I was woken up by the audio telling me the float has ended and thanks for floating. It also tells you that it will begin the cleansing process soon so you should exit the float. As I was showering and getting ready to leave, I saw it going through the cleansing process which was good to see. Definitely recommend this float if you are stressed or just need a mental break. It was good to just be in there with you and your thoughts to reflect and detach and then eventually, truly relax!

This was a nice experience. Hubby gifted me a visit to Reset Float for an hour in their sensory…read moredeprivation tank. He purchased the experience from Groupon. I was initially worried because of a past claustrophobia event during an MRI (I'm not usually claustrophobic but I freaked out during my scan and had to be calmed down). Hubby and I had time off together and decided to take the trip to LI for my session. He booked one for himself as well. When we arrived, Raymond checked us in. He explained what we should do in preparation for the session and provided us wutg wax ear plugs. Each room is single occupancy with its own shower (with soap and shampoo), towels, slippers, and bacitracin (if you have any scratches on your skin). It would be best to not book right after shaving or if you gave open wounds, because you'll be floating in a high concentration of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate), which could be irritating to cuts and abrasions. They provide the bacitracin for you to put onto any scrape you may have, which alleviates the sting. Once in the room, you disrobe and shower. You must be clean before entering the tank. The tank is like a clam shell, you climb in and use the "pillow" under your head to keep your head afloat. You're completely naked in the tank and you just float. Napping has exponential benefits while in the tank. Once you set your session, the tank does all the work. You can listen to music, adjust the sound, or just stay in the quiet room. I fell asleep a few times. Because of the high concentration of MgSO4, you're floating and have pretty decent buoyancy. I have locs, so I brought my own swim cap - I would suggest bringing one of you don't want the liquid saturating your hair. Raymond examined how to put on the cap, with the hair on the very top of your head, and the side of the cap covering your ears. I would say, however, not to cover your ears because it creates a spacc for the liquid to seep into and for that reason, I was a bit unhappy with what happened after my session. Once the float is done, the tank let's you know. You exit the tank, hop in the shower, and clean yourself. Once you leave the tank, it begins it's self-cleaning process. The water is swirling around and around and I'm guessing they use UV to help clean it. I did not realize that there was soooo much salt in the tank. I thought I did a good job cleaning myself off in the shower, but because the water got into my swim cap some, once it dried, everything that still had remnants of the water, dried white. Once we headed out, Raymond had water waiting for us. That was refreshing. You should not have a heavy meal or drink a lot of fluids ahead of your visit. I was wearing a black dress and the drips from my hair would dry on my dress and then turn white. You really have to rinse yiursf off very well. It would be best to schedule this kind of experience on a day when you have nothing else to do. I will say that for the actual experience, it was very relaxing and felt amazing but the aftercare was a lot, especially with the salt drying. I would do this again, but definitely will not be going anywhere else afterwards.

The staff were very sweet and patient in helping us do so. The salt cave was a little underwhelming however. The room itself is beautiful and tranquil and you will definitely fall asleep if you allow yourself. Salt is pumped into the air so much that you can taste it, which is kind of neat. However, after a few minutes my nose started to burn a little. Overall, I thought it was an okay experience but it felt more like a very expensive nap lol. I would return to this establishment to try other services, they are lovely.
