Float Wellness & Massage in Sherwood Park offers relaxation therapies.

Meditation and mindfulness are two words that seem to be a part of the lexicon and daily activities of an increasing number of people. There is also an abundance of books, blogs, vlogs, products and services that promise to help people achieve a state of zen. In Sherwood Park there is Float Wellness & Massage.

Float therapy and sensory deprivation can lead to deep relaxation. Each isolation tank is filled with water that is heated to skin temperature and filled with 1100lbs of dissolved epsom salts. Clients are encouraged to enter the tank, close their eyes and let go. The sensory deprivation is thought to carry brain waves to the theta state, which allows for the focus to move from external signals to those generated from within. This leads to relaxation, healing and focus on the present.

Float Wellness & Massage is staffed by several Registered Massage Therapists. The team offers a variety of treatments including Swedish Massage, Sports Massage, Pregnancy Massage, Myofascial Release, Lymphatic Drainage and Trigger Point Therapy.

The Infrared Sauna service aids in the detoxification of the body as clients sweat 2-3 times more than in a regular sauna. It helps with weight loss, pain and stress relief and improves the immune system.

The sensory deprivation is thought to carry brain waves to the theta state, which allows for the focus to move from external signals to those generated from within. This leads to relaxation, healing and focus on the present.

The PandoraStar Light therapy is great for deep meditation, energy work, relaxation, wellbeing, stress management, anxiety reduction, depression management, sleep improvement, learning, cognitive enhancement, creative visualisation, self-hypnosis, personal development, lucid dreaming, and shamanic journeying.

Laara Delain with Float Wellness & Massage tells Modern Luxuria Magazine that the aim of her team is to ensure “that every single person who walks through the door receives exceptional customer service. That all of their questions are answered and that they walk away feeling relaxed and renewed.”
