Email: reception@float-therapy.co.uk. - Book online (advance booking required, live availability): https://bookings.float-therapy.co.uk/webstoreNew/ - Arrive about 10 minutes before your session. Reschedule or cancel via the link in your booking confirmation. - Bring a towel, or hire one for £2. Vegan-friendly toiletries, private showers and changing areas are provided, with herbal tea after your session. ## Float therapy - A 60-minute session in a private float room: you lie effortlessly in warm, body-temperature water enriched with Epsom salt while noise, light and outside distraction are reduced — many guests describe it as one of the most calming, restorative experiences they have tried. - Prices: single float £48. Intro offer (new customers only): 3 floats for £99 — about £33 each, a £45 saving, valid 12 months, not transferable. - Allow around 90 minutes in total for showers before and after. Most guests float without clothing; you have complete privacy in your own float room. - Worried about enclosed spaces? The float rooms are private and spacious, the pod lid can stay open, and you are always in control — many guests with claustrophobia find floating surprisingly comfortable. - Falling asleep is common and perfectly fine — the buoyancy of the water keeps you safely afloat. - Pregnancy: floating is welcome up to 35 weeks (not beyond); if you are pregnant and unsure, contact us before booking and check with your midwife. - Health: if you have epilepsy, a heart condition, asthma, skin conditions, allergies, very low blood pressure or certain mental-health conditions, seek medical advice before booking. - Avoid shaving or waxing shortly before a float (salt water can irritate), and avoid floating with fresh hair dye, false tan or a very new tattoo. ## Contrast therapy - A 60-minute session alternating an infrared sauna (kept no hotter than 65°C for a gentler, penetrating warmth) with a 7°C ice bath. You move between heat and cold at your own pace, repeating the cycle as many times as feels comfortable. - Prices: solo session £40, duo session for two people £60. Intro offer (new customers only): 3 sessions for £90 — a £30 saving, valid 6 months, not transferable. - Please bring swimwear (required) and a towel (or hire one for £2). - Popular for athletic recovery, an energising reset and mental clarity — you don't need to be an athlete; first-timers are guided through the full cycle. - Health: if you have high or low blood pressure, heart disease, circulatory or respiratory conditions, diabetes, or are pregnant, seek medical advice before booking. Heat and cold exposure affects circulation, breathing and blood pressure; follow staff guidance. ## Massage - All treatments are with Jade, a massage and beauty therapist with over 15 years' experience. Every session begins with a short consultation so the pressure and focus are tailored to you. - Menu: Aromatherapy massage from £35 — £35 for 30 minutes, £65 for 60 minutes or £95 for 90 minutes (30, 60 or 90 minutes — light-to-medium pressure with blended essential oils), Body Sculpting massage £70 (60 minutes — wood therapy using specialised wooden tools to boost circulation, encourage lymphatic flow and ease fluid retention, helping smooth the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite), Deep Tissue massage from £40 — £40 for 30 minutes, £70 for 60 minutes or £100 for 90 minutes (30, 60 or 90 minutes — firm, focused pressure on back, neck and shoulders), Indian Head massage £55 (45 minutes — head, neck, face and shoulders), Lymphatic Drainage massage £65 for 60 minutes or £95 for 90 minutes with an added facial lymphatic massage (light, flowing strokes that work with your natural lymphatic flow, easing puffiness, fluid retention and heaviness), Mother & Baby massage £55 (45 minutes — a relaxing massage for mum while baby stays safely close by; TUESDAYS ONLY, from 6pm), Pregnancy massage £55 (45 minutes — gentle, side-lying and cushioned; available from 13 weeks onwards for uncomplicated pregnancies), Young Athlete & Wellbeing massage £55 (45 minutes — a gentle, age-appropriate treatment for guests under 16; parental consent required and a parent or guardian present throughout).

Every 90 minute treatment includes a luxurious head and scalp massage as the finishing touch. - You undress to your comfort level and remain covered with towels throughout; only the area being worked on is exposed. - Pregnant or carrying an injury?
