"The experience of floating involves immersing oneself in a shallow tank containing about 1,400 pounds of Epsom Salts dissolved in water, creating a zero-gravity sensation that allows individuals to feel weightless, free from external forces that typically strain muscles and cause discomfort," according to a statement from the Middlesex County Chamber of Commerce. "This unique state of relaxation provides relief for a myriad of conditions, including anxiety, pain, physical recovery, creativity enhancement, mindfulness, and more."

In addition, Float Forty One Exhale offers "the groundbreaking modality of Fire and Ice Contrast Therapy." This therapy incorporates the known traditional sauna and cold plunge use and brings them together "for the ultimate experience."
