What is floating?

Your oasis of calm in the city

Empty your mind for a little while

Floating is a unique and effective way to relax where you float weightlessly on a layer of very salty water. The special Epsom salts in the heated water produce an effect like the Dead Sea, so you effortlessly remain a float on the surface.

The water is kept warm at a steady body temperature. After a few minutes you lose sense of which parts of your body are enveloped by water, and which aren’t. The tranquility, the steady warmth and the absence of gravity make you feel like you are floating in space.

During floating your body and mind will no langer be distracted by environmental factors, such as noise and visual stimulation. By floating weightlessly in water of your own body temperature, gravity seems to have disappeared. In short, we offer you the perfect setting for complete relaxation.

When you have a float session at Koan Float, you step into a tank specially designed to block out all external stimuli. Your mind and body are no longer distracted by factors governing the outside environment, such as noise, changes in temperature, visual stimuli and gravity.
