Float Therapy at Bandy Canyon Ranch

Experience Deep Relaxation and Healing through Sound and Float Therapy

WHAT IS FLOAT THERAPY?

Float therapy combines the calming effects of floating in water with the healing power of sound, often referred to as a Sound Bath. In this unique experience, sound waves and vibrations work together to guide the body into a deep state of relaxation and healing.

Sound therapy, also known as vibrational medicine, is based on the idea that everything in the universe is in a state of vibration. By applying specific sounds and frequencies, the body is encouraged to align with these vibrations, creating an environment for natural healing. This process can shift our brainwave states, helping us move from an alert, reactive state (known as beta) to more relaxed, meditative states (like alpha and theta), and even to deep, restorative states (delta).

During a float therapy session, participants are gently guided by our team into a floating vessel in the water. As you lay back and close your eyes, the sound waves created by various instruments—such as quartz crystal bowls, Himalayan bowls, gongs, and drums—wash over you. These sounds help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for relaxation and stress reduction. Under the guidance of our expert sound healer, Elizabeth, the combination of floating and sound therapy helps the body release stress, reduce pain, and enter a state of deep relaxation.

Float therapy is more than just a relaxing experience; it’s a holistic approach to wellness that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit.

Sarah Mitchell

“I had heard about float therapy before, but nothing prepared me for the profound peace and healing I experienced at Bandy Canyon Ranch. The combination of floating in the warm water while being enveloped by soothing sounds took me to a place of deep relaxation that I didn’t even know was possible. Elizabeth’s skill with the sound bath truly made the session magical—I felt all my stress melt away. It was as if my entire body reset, leaving me calm, refreshed, and pain-free. I can’t recommend this experience enough!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our float therapy sessions, from what to expect to how to prepare for your visit.

When you arrive, dial 01 from the gate call box to be connected to a team member. Let them know that you are on the guest list for the float therapy session. Once the gates are opened, head down the long driveway until you reach the gravel parking lot. Check-in is at the building adjacent to the car park.

Our team will monitor guests during the session. While it does happen, most often you’re not drifting off to sleep but entering what is call the Theta brain state – the space in between conscious, alertness and unconscious sleep. It is the brain waves that are activated by meditation.

At this time, the float sessions are open to guests aged 18 and over

The conditions of every pregnancy can be different and all expecting mothers should seek the approval of their doctor before floating. However, in general, after your first trimester it is safe to float and many have found floating to be a great relief due to the weightlessness of the body while floating. Floating is also a wonderful way to bond with your baby.

You can float fully clothed! There is no need for bathing suits. We advise against long pants/jeans just in case your ankles get wet when embarking/disembarking your vessel. We recommend loose, comfortable clothing.

Sound healing is generally safe for most people. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before beginning any new health practice, especially if you have a history of health conditions or are currently taking medication.

Just yourself! Towels, a blanket, a pillow and an eye mask will be provided before your session. At the end of the session, there will be a hydration break and time to come back to the present.

Our vessels have been tested with floaters weighing up to 250 pounds who have been able to float without issue. Feel free to come in and try it! If for some reason it simply doesn’t work, we’ll refund you! (note: this has never happened)

We conduct small group sessions to ensure the experience is intimate and not overwhelming. Each session will accommodate approximately 15 participants or fewer. Our sessions take place in our huge swimming pool, providing ample room for everyone to float freely!
