Halcyon Floats

Overview

Halcyon Floats is Philadelphia’s #1 Float Center and a premier wellness studio specializing in sensory deprivation floatation therapy, full-spectrum infrared sauna, and complementary holistic services. Established in 2014, it is Philly’s longest-tenured float resource, serving thousands with a focus on relaxation, recovery, and reset. The facility offers private, sound-proof float rooms filled with 10 inches of Epsom salt water (nearly 1300 lbs of salt) for complete buoyancy and weightlessness.

The overall atmosphere is serene, healing, and client-focused, designed for deep meditation, pain relief, stress reduction, and mindfulness. Clients enter a custom float studio with optional lights, music, and private showers in cabins, or a cozy, womb-like tank. Additional wellness areas promote detoxification, respiratory health, and energy boosts in a comfortable, non-intimidating environment. It’s ideal for first-timers, athletes, chronic pain sufferers, and those seeking natural anxiety relief.
