Hakuna Matata!
Thats all you will say once you leave your float therapy session. Approaching our third year after a pretty bad car accident we have become accustomed to being in out of Chiro, Ortho, and soon Physical Therapy; we are now in search of more holistic pain management.
East coast floats caught our attention now that we're in the neighborhood. The storefront talks about reduction of stress, anxiety, and pain so naturally we were game. I have to admit at first we were hoping for pain relief yet we got so much more.
Upon coming in we sign our life away per usual and we're given a tour. We received a break down of how their tanks work and how the water is cleaned. We were instructed to take a shower before and after floating. There are options to keep the light and music on to reduce first time jitters and told about the recommended time to reflect on your experience in their lobby with a cup of tea.
I don't want to discourage anyone it should be noted that this experience can be challenging for people that may have a fear water/drowning or are claustrophobic/dislike being in tight spaces.
Overall I have never felt more relaxed and rejuvenated from a spa treatment. The price point can be a little high especially for two individuals but definitely worth it. Thank you East Coast floats!Helpful 22Thanks 0Love this 18Oh no 0 - 74997511595Mar 22, 2020
For some time, while studying for my licensing exam I sat across the street of this business wondering if floating would really help with anxiety. My biggest concern was being enclosed in a dark machine and alone with my thoughts for one hour. Read a bit on it and saw a Groupon for two sessions. Purchased the groupon and about a week prior to taking my exam, I scheduled a floating session.
Scheduling was easy, location seemed pretty clean and instructions were easy. It was surprisingly relaxing. I was not lost in my thoughts and focused on trying to enjoy the experience. I actually fell asleep after 20 minutes of floating and kept floating with ease (there's so much salt, there's no way of your drowning, even if you fall asleep). After the session was over, I was immediately woken up by the lights and sensors. Took a quick shower and enjoyed the complementary cup of tea afterwards.
I decided to schedule the second session for the night prior to my licensing exam. After a long day of studying, I went to my session, relaxed and was ready to head home and to bed. Next day, I was very a bit anxious, but mostly relaxed and well-rested. Took my exam and passed! I really enjoyed my sessions and would recommend people trying it and see if it's for them.Helpful 21Thanks 0Love this 16Oh no 0 - 183264472Feb 28, 2020
For a total mind, body, and soul rejuvenation, this place is the best and will fulfill all your needs. From the moment you walk in your pampered. For your float, you get our own private room. They have you rinse off before you float and then you get to fully shower after the float, complete with body wash, shampoo, and conditioner, to get all of the salt water off of you. They provide you with earplugs so you don't get water in your ears. A washcloth for showering. A neck pillow during the float in case you can't get comfortable. They also play the most smoothing music that it's herd not to relax and just let go.
Even when you're done floating the pampering doesn't stop. After your shower in your private room, there is another room
you go to that provides a hair dryer, dry shampoo, and various face and body creams.
Afterward they have a fresh cup of tea waiting for you in the lobby to rehydrate and journals in case you want to write about your experience. It's all so personal and so relaxing. Definitely worth every penny spent.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - Mike L.Bow, NH203214Jul 22, 2022

This is the first place I tried floating since moving to FL and I'm so glad I don't need to look anywhere else. The front desk reception are friendly and sweet and the spa feels so relaxing and welcoming. I had a great experience and can't wait to return!

I was a first time floater and had a great experience! The atmosphere is good vibes only, everything was clean, and the staff was friendly/knowledgeable. I have two suggestions for improvement. 1) I'd love if shower shoes were provided. 2) I think instructions around emergency situations should be included in the brief orientation

The facility is nice, but the young man (with the top knot) working the front and assisting customers with the infrared sauna, definitely needs coaching.
To start, before I had a chance to undress, he asked if he could start the sauna--what?!? Why would I want the sauna started and minutes to start ticking before I was even able to get in it? He then used a custom setting which gave me 3 minutes to undress before the sauna actually started. He should have done this to start with.
Second, when I made the reservation, I requested to shower after the sauna and I was told it was available and that I could; however, the "top knot" guy said he wasn't sure it would be available and proceeded to tell me that other appointments have first priority. Why?? I have no clue.
Third, he knocked in my door while I still had 8 minutes remaining on the sauna session and interrupted my meditation to tell me that he would have a shower available. This could have waited until after my session.
The facility is nice, but this person needs much more customer service training and/or he is just not meant to deal with customers at the front line. He took away from my experience. I am still very confused about the shower situation too.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Kirstyn J.Wekiva Springs, FL, FL01Apr 25, 2022
Float was nice...interesting experience. Paige was great. However, this business is calling/texting people with unused, expired Groupons to tell them they will honor them and then AFTER your float they say they won't honor it so you have to pay. Scam! Beware. Very shady tactics to be double paid.

Hit pause. Submerge. Breathe deep and enjoy the sensory deprivation experience at East Coast Floats. I did today for one hour and for $69 I found the experience unique and relaxing and wholly enjoyable. Last year, it was acupuncture. This year, a new experience was necessary and I was happy to learn East Coast Floats was conveniently-located in Baldwin Park. For a first time check-in, there is a $5 off offer available to Yelpers. For a first-time visit, you can also purchase a second session for an additional $30. The session includes time to shower before stepping into what looks like a giant mouse (the kind you click, not the kind you trap). Once you turn the lights out, honey, they are OUT and you are in the buff and floating free. Faro at the front check-in was very helpful and the space was attractive and modern. The vanity space was PERFECT after the session to allow each of us to re-groom and head back out into this crazy world.
