Whether you’re seeking relief from stress, muscle tension, or poor sleep quality, float therapy offers a peaceful space to unwind and reconnect with yourself – a sanctuary for your body, mind, and spirit.


A modern approach to ancient relaxation

What Is Float Therapy?

What is float therapy? It’s a deeply restorative experience that allows you to float effortlessly in a specially designed float tank Brisbane residents trust. Also known as floatation therapy or restricted environmental stimulation therapy (REST), this treatment involves immersing your body in water filled with highly concentrated Epsom salt heated to body temperature. The result is a feeling of zero gravity, allowing you to completely let go of tension and stress.

The calm, sound-free environment reduces sensory input, helping your brain enter a meditative state that promotes mental clarity and calm. It’s one of the most effective float therapy benefits – allowing your mind to reset while your body rejuvenates.

At Contro Wellness, you can choose between a float pod for full sensory isolation or an open float pool for a spacious, gentle experience. Both options use magnesium-infused water to soothe your body and mind in a tranquil, private environment.

One hour of float therapy can provide the restorative effects of up to four hours of sleep – helping you reset, recover, and find peace in the present.

What to Expect

Consultation & Preparation

When you arrive at our wellness centre, our friendly team will guide you through your float therapy session and answer any questions. You’ll shower beforehand, remove jewellery, and prepare to enter your float pod or open float tank in complete privacy.

Float Therapy Session

As you settle into the magnesium-infused water, heated precisely to your body temperature, your body begins to float effortlessly without any pressure points. The absence of sensory input allows your mind to drift into a deep state of relaxation, similar to meditation. Many clients experience vivid mental clarity, creative insights, or the simple joy of quiet stillness.

Post-Session

After your float session, take a moment to reawaken slowly. You’ll likely feel lighter, calmer, and more focused. The effects extend beyond the tank – reduced stress levels, improved sleep quality, and better physical recovery are common benefits of float therapy with regular visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our FAQ section answers common questions and is designed to help you learn more about our wellness centre and services.
How does flotation therapy work?

During a session, your body floats effortlessly in magnesium-infused water heated to match your body temperature. The reduction of sensory input quiets your nervous system, helping your mind drift into a deeply meditative state. This process is one of the most recognised float therapy benefits, encouraging relaxation, lowering stress hormones, and improving circulation.

Is float therapy safe?

Yes – float therapy is completely safe for most people. Our float pods and tanks use advanced filtration systems that purify and sanitise the water between each session. The Epsom salt concentration naturally prevents bacterial growth, and our wellness specialists are always nearby to guide you through the experience or answer any questions.

What should I bring?

We provide everything you need – towels, earplugs, and all amenities for showering before and after your float. You’re welcome to bring swimwear if you prefer, though most guests float nude to fully experience the zero gravity sensation. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to relax and enjoy the calm surroundings.

How often should I float?

Many clients begin with weekly sessions to feel the full benefits of float therapy, such as reduced tension, better sleep, and improved focus. Over time, you may choose to float fortnightly or monthly to maintain your sense of balance and calm. Regular float therapy sessions create lasting effects that compound with consistency.

Can float therapy help with anxiety or depression?

Yes – studies suggest that float therapy may help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and chronic stress. By lowering cortisol levels and quieting sensory stimulation, your body enters a state of deep calm that supports mental and emotional balance. While it’s not a replacement for medical care, many people find it an effective complementary tool for improving mental health.

What if I’m claustrophobic?

Our float pods are designed with comfort and choice in mind. You’re free to leave the lid open, use ambient lighting, or opt for our open float pool for a spacious experience. Once you realise how peaceful and weightless the environment feels, most clients find their initial hesitation melts away within minutes.

Can pregnant women use float therapy?

Yes, many expectant mothers find that float therapy offers soothing pain management and relief from the pressure of pregnancy. The buoyancy supports the body, easing back and joint discomfort. As always, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider before booking your session.
