Float8 is Florida’s premier destination to relax, recover and reset, with five locations in South Florida and Orlando. Floatation therapy is a holistic health and wellness treatment that reduces stress and anxiety, relieves pain, and improves focus, helping clients live happier, healthier and more productive lives.

By removing light, sound, and the effects of gravity, floaters reach a deep level of mental and physical relaxation which is ideal for healing and meditation. An ever-growing body of scientific research shows floating as a promising treatment for anxiety-based conditions, high blood pressure, insomnia, migraines, fibromyalgia, PTSD and addiction. It is also used by professional athletes and teams in order to speed up recovery between workouts, and aid them in performing at their peak potential.

This holiday season, treat your loved ones to the ultimate gift of tranquility and rejuvenation. Flotation therapy can lead them on a journey into deep relaxation, stress relief, and physical recovery. With a gift certificate for a float session, you’re not just offering a present, but a moment of pure bliss and self-care. Whether it’s for your hardworking boss, dedicated co-worker, fitness-conscious friend, Secret Santa, or your spouse, a float session is a thoughtful and unique way to show you care about their well-being. And of course, don’t forget to take care of yourself this holiday season and schedule a float for yourself. It’s the perfect way to recharge and refresh.
