2. I've done it. I love it. I'm disappointed there isn't a place close by.

To be clear, it's not for everyone. Ms. CincyDem absolutely HATES it (almost as much as I love it).

First - maker sure there's no shaving going on for a few days before...that floatation level of salt...eww weeee, that'll get your attention.

Get in, turn out the lights, pull the top down and float. After about 10 minutes, when the humidity in the tank comes to equilibrium, you'll stop feeling the moisture evaporate from your skin and, at that moment, it goes full float. You can't feel the water line anymore (assuming they've done a good job at hitting body temp - in my experiences with several locations, they usually are).

And, just as an aside, leave the swimsuit on the towel rack...makes a real difference in the float feel.

Just stay chill. some of the places have a set up for music. One I used has a connection plug for your music or you can use their canned stuff.

Enjoy.
