We signed up for the membership and are excited to be able to go again. But more importantly, the completely relaxed meditative state that you enter into while in the pod also lasted throughout the day. The lack of pain in my back and ankle lasted the rest of the day. As the day went on, though, the effects of the float were even more noticeable. After we left I thought "that was a neat experience"- but wasn't sure if I'd really want to go again. It took about 10 minutes for me to convince my entire body to completely relax, but once I did, it was heaven.
TRUE REST SPA CRACKED
I also kept the Pod door cracked the slightest bit (to deal with my claustrophobia). I chose to keep the lights on and have soft music. For the first time in forever, I was completely pain free. I have a lot of lower back pain and tendon problems in my left foot. It relieved every single pressure point in my entire body. I can get claustrophobic and the idea of just sitting still for an entire hour is hard for me. I'll be honest, I wasn't really sure if I would enjoy it. There's also a complimentary Oxygen Bar and tea station when you are done. Each room has a shower with shampoo, body wash, and conditioner so you can rinse off before you float and wash off afterwards. You control how far open the doors to the Pod are or if you would like them closed.

You can choose to have lights, soft music, complete darkness, or silence. For one full hour, you get to float in warm, filtered water with one thousand pounds of Epsom salt dissolved in it, which creates a completely weightless experience. I took a trip to the True Rest Float Spa in Draper.
