Transitions Float RVA Midlothian

Overview

Transitions Float RVA is a locally owned wellness and performance center with multiple locations in the Richmond, VA area, specializing in float therapy, infrared saunas, cold plunges, and holistic recovery services. The core offering is sensory deprivation float therapy (Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy or R.E.S.T.), where guests float weightlessly in private tanks filled with 1,000 lbs of medical-grade Epsom salts in 10 inches of warm water matching skin temperature. This creates a zero-gravity environment free of light, sound, and gravity, promoting profound mental and physical restoration.

The overall atmosphere is serene, private, and transformative, designed for relaxation, recovery, and self-discovery. Guests report deep muscle relaxation, stress relief, enhanced creativity, better sleep, pain reduction, and effortless meditation. It’s perfect for athletes, stressed professionals, those seeking mental clarity, or anyone needing a ‘reset button’ from daily life.
