Stressed? You Might Just Need to Float, Bro.
If your blood pressure spikes every time someone says “self-care,” congrats: You’re exactly the kind of person who needs a float.
Forget candles. Forget essential oils. We’re talking about 90 minutes of zero gravity, zero noise, zero stimulation. You’re in a private pod with nothing to do but exist — and for a lot of guys, that’s the most radical thing imaginable.
At The R.E.S.T. Centre in Whitby, we specialize in high-stress, high-responsibility recovery. Firefighters. Construction workers. Dads with full schedules and short fuses. The kind of guys who give their all, but never give themselves a break.
So what happens in the tank?
You lie down. The water’s warm and salty. You float effortlessly. Your spine decompresses. Your nervous system drops into rest and digest mode. And for once, nobody’s asking you for anything.
You’ll either:
Fall asleep (we won’t judge),
Solve your life problems in a lucid daydream, or
Wonder why you didn’t do this sooner.
Brent, our co-founder and possibly the most floated man alive (we’re not kidding — thousands of floats), swears by it. He started floating as a way to reset after a stress-induced burnout and never looked back.
“I used to think relaxation was something you earned. Now I know it’s something you need to keep going.” – Brent, Float King™
TL;DR:
If you’re always tired, on edge, or running on fumes, float therapy might be your new favorite coping mechanism. No talking. No phone. Just you, the water, and actual peace.
