Buoyant Float Spas, Chesterfield

Meditation fan, Mikell Rush, was first exposed to "floating" through an online video. Soon after, she went to Seattle to try out this practice for herself and loved it so much she decided to bring it back to her hometown. In 2015, she opened the doors of Buoyant Float Spa to share her wellness discoveries from tranquil floatation to St. Louis residents and visitors.

Flotation tanks provide an array of health benefits including body relaxation, mental decompression, and joint and spinal column relief. Here, guests float for an hour in 200 gallons of water mixed with Epsom salt.

At Buoyant Float Spa, you can enjoy:

• Flotation: Spend an hour floating in a water tank to give the body and mind a much needed break from day-to-day stress.
• Gravity Reduction: Flotation sessions make guests feel as though they are living without gravity. This can create health benefits such as back and neck relaxation, spinal alignment, improved reflexes, and relief from arthritis.
• Sensory Deprivation: Laying in a flotation pod lets participants rest fully because the body's senses are not being overstimulated. Other benefits of a session at Buoyant Float Spa include relief from depression and hypertension as well as enhanced cognitive ability.
