Rest Space Floatation Rooms

We often mistake “active” rest for REAL rest, this could be in the form of doom-scrolling, watching tv, or still feeling guilty when resting. These all still require mental energy from ourselves, whether we realise it or not! 🧠

Floatation therapy gives your body and mind something most of us rarely get, which is complete uninterrupted rest and here’s how 👇

💧The Epsom salt water takes the weight off your body so your muscles can fully relax.

💧The darkness and silence remove the constant stream of stimulation your brain is fighting against every day.

💧Without anything to respond to, your mind finally gets the space to slow down.

Our sessions are booking up quickly so please plan in advance to avoid disappointment!

Give Dad something he’d never book for himself 💧 60 minutes of complete rest in our floatation pod, plus a free pressotherapy session to finish.

We’ve got £10 off all gift cards AND free pressotherapy with code FATHERSDAY at checkout!

Floatation therapy is experiencing a feeling of weightlessness, laying effortlessly on top of a shallow pool of warm water, saturated with half a tonne of epsom salt.

The environment is peacefully dark and quiet, with the intention of reducing input to your senses. The body releases any muscular tension, our parasympathetic nervous system (rest state) is activated, stress hormones and blood pressure reduce and spines gently decompress.

It’s been TWO whole years since the renovations began at Rest Space! And since then, we’ve welcomed over 800 new floaters and gained over 6,000 followers 🫶

Our journey began from working in mental health, at times suffering with our own & supporting those around us who have shared their own struggles.

And after trying floatation therapy for the first time, we wanted to build a safe space for people to find the same sense of calm and relief in the float pods that we did ourselves ✨

Thank you for choosing us and thank you for being part of our floating community, we wouldn’t be here without you 🩵

Is it reaaally that salty? 💧

Yes! Each of our pods contains 1000lbs of Epsom salt, that’s more concentrated than the Dead Sea!

This level of salt isn’t just for show. It completely counteracts gravity, creating true weightlessness that allows every muscle in your body to fully let go.

Releasing your body and muscles of tension, allowing you to completely rest 🧘‍♀️

Planning a float? Why not make a day of it 💧

Penarth’s the perfect place to slow down before or after your session. Grab a coffee at Griff’s Cafe, wander through Windsor Arcade, pick up a book at Griffin Books, then stroll down to the pier 🌊

Your nervous system will thank you for the whole experience, not just the 60 minutes in the tank ☁️

Your nervous system has been running on overdrive. Here’s what happens when you give it a break 💧

Inside a float pod, you’re weightless in 1000 pounds of Epsom salts. No light, no sound, no gravity pulling at you.

Without constant sensory input, your body gets the signal that it’s safe to rest. Blood pressure lowers, and cortisol (your stress hormone) drops. You shift out of fight-or-flight and into your parasympathetic nervous system - the place where healing happens.

And the effects last for days after your float ☁️

You can’t think your way out of burnout 🧠 This Mental Health Awareness Week, it’s important to bridge the mind/body gap and give your nervous system what it needs 🫶

If you’ve been running on stress, anxiety, or burnout for months, your body isn’t going to reset by trying to think your way out of it, it needs something deeper.

Floatation therapy removes every external input. No light, sound, or gravity. Just you and complete weightlessness.

In that space, your nervous system finally feels safe enough to shift out of fight-or-flight and into deep rest. The kind of rest that lasts days, not hours.

INTRODUCING at ✨

Every Tuesday at Rest Space, you can now book a personalised IV drip and health consultation with IV WETROOM 🩺

During your session, you’ll meet with Dr Jerry or a qualified nurse to discuss your individual health goals and wellbeing needs.

Together, you’ll choose the most suitable IV to support energy, immunity, recovery, hydration, or overall wellness 🤍

You can now book with the link in bio 📆

We’ve thought of everything so you can think of nothing 🧘‍♀️

Here’s what we give you to make your float as comfortable as possible:

💧 Earplugs - keeps salt water out of your ears
💧 Vaseline - protects any cuts or dry skin from stinging
💧 A halo - supports your neck and head so you can fully let go
💧 Water bottle - for rinsing if salt gets near your eyes

A few things that help before you arrive:

• Avoid shaving 48 hours before (salt + fresh shave = sting)

• Skip big meals or caffeine beforehand (light snack is fine)

• Use the toilet before you float so nothing interrupts your nervous system reset

Your comfort is part of the experience. Come as you are 🩵
