Floating Lotus

I went in for the Floatation treatment, and I very highly recommend it! It’s like having an entire vacation’s worth of relaxation neatly packaged into an hour. After one hour of floating therapy, I felt as if I had rested uninterrupted for 8 hours.
If it’s your first time, definitely READ the pre-​treatment information no later than the day before your session. They sent me a link in the appointment confirmation email. The sooner you read it, the better prepared you will be for an experience of pure bliss. Chasten was so great. She is such great and calming awesome-​person.
Just go and experience it for yourself. I wish that my words could do it justice but they can’t. Go!
Enjoy! :)

I LOVE Floating Lotus! If you’re looking for a peaceful safe haven from the hectic city this is it! The staff are all so wonderful providing personalized feedback on different treatments. The owners are lovely and the space is truly special. Highly recommend doing an epsom salt float — it’s really great.

Been here for both microdermabrasion and floating.
Microdermabrasion — excellent service — Angel was very gentle and gave good tips on skin care. Not pushy and very honest and my skin felt so much better after multiple sessions.
Floating tank — my first experience in the tank. They offered a 50% discount for first timers. I was nervous to begin with but then while in the tank I was relaxed. I felt so much better afterwards and when my husband saw me he asked what I had done, since I looked so good!
Great place. They also have a bunch of classes that I would love to try but have not got a chance because of my schedule.

I came here for facial with Angel. She is amazing! Always listens to my concerns, answers my questions and gives valuable advices. Facial was very pleasant, not too painful. I love all the products she uses, very gentle on my sensitive skin, plus smell really great. I came using Groupon deal so it was affordable. I wish they had more deals for current customers as paying regular price is quite difficult for me.

I love this place! I have only been to their restorative yoga class, and look forward to taking advantage of their other services in the future.
Their 2pm Saturday yoga siesta class taught by Stefanie is wonderful. The yoga space is beautiful — naturally lit, you can look up through the glass ceiling to the sky, and even though I haven’t been out there just yet, there’s a deck space.
At the studio, they provide mats (for free!), and a place for you to fill your water bottle/​grab tea in the front lobby. The tea they provide is amazing.
The class itself is nice and intimate — roughly 10 or so people. Stefanie makes hands-​on adjustments (and gives people the option to decline this type of support if they are not interested) — personally, the adjustments are my favorite part of a yoga class. So many instructors are hands-​off nowadays, so it was particularly nice to have someone who does this!
I often find it hard to make time for this type of slower class when planning out my exercise schedule for the week, but have come to realize that this type of yoga and more meditative practice is hugely beneficial in its own way — especially in this crazy (awesome, but hectic) city.

The facility was very pretty. The float tank was nice. My skin felt good afterward. I was not too impressed with the salt room I don’t really think it made much difference. I didn’t like not having my shoes or a pair of sandals to switch into especially when they had a dog running around. I think they could have left the dogs somewhere else and not at work

Obsessed with this much needed oasis in midtown!
People: Jackie and Joel are the most warm and welcoming individuals! Their heart and passion towards what they’ve created is evident in all the lovely details and services that make Floating Lotus so special.
Space: There are complementary teas and slippers for use when you arrive. The treatment rooms are soothingly decorated with unique crystals and candles, which create a very calming feel. The amazingly sunlit yoga/​meditation studio on the top floor opens to a mini-​rooftop terrace, what a gem! I rented this space for a private yoga session with my favorite instructor and it was the most wonderful way to spend a Sunday morning!
Services: I’ve experienced a variety of services including my first float and acupuncture session with Joel, facial with Angel and reiki with Jackie. All were incredibly relaxing and peaceful. This has quickly become one of my go-​to-​spots in the city for health and wellness. Looking forward to my next visit!

Very lovely staff. Salt room was so relaxing as was the infrared sauna. Calming music and atmosphere seriously didn’t want to leave. The room where classes are held with the view of the sky is beautiful. Definitely full of positive energy.

I’ve tried floating here
It’s quite well organized, personnel are very pleasant to deal with. Floating tank is big and comfortable.
However, it’s quite pricey, so use groupon if you can.

My skin has improved dramatically since I started seeing Angel! I hope to keep going back after my Groupon is up! I also wanted to compliment Laura for keeping my necklace that I left there safe for me… such a sweet girl!

Came here this weekend for a float session with my friend after purchasing a Groupon. This was my first time trying floatation therapy and I didn’t quite know what to expect. But I was definitely surprised and very pleased with my experience.
There was a hiccup with the timing and reservations which was okay for us because we didn’t have a packed schedule. But if you’re hoping to get in at your reserved time, you may want to double check the day of to make sure you’re all set.
Once you get in, you take off your shoes and wait in the beautifully zen waiting area. They have assorted teas and lemon water for you as you wait. Then when they’re ready for you, the receptionist will give you a little tour of your shower and bath room and a run down of what to expect.
First you put your ear plugs in, rinse off, and turn off the light in the room. The light in the bath should be on. After 5 minutes it will turn off your 50 minutes begins. At first I was very nervous being in the dark. But soon after the fear went away and my muscles started relax. I tried different positions with my arms and found what worked best for me. As you float, gentle jets will create a flow of water under you. It feels great.
After the lights come on, you shower in the room. The floating lotus has a beautifully scented line of products available for you to use. After you’re ready you can continue the relaxation in the room upstairs. Which is also gorgeous and full of natural light, meditation bowls, and yoga mats.
Definitely enjoyed my time here!

I came here after purchasing a Groupon for a float session. I had never tried this before, but am recently discovering meditation and its benefits and I thought this could be helpful in strengthening my meditation. The spa itself is very lovely and peaceful. They were very welcoming there. The float room was wonderful. The woman working at the desk explained the process clearly and throughly and made everything very simple and easy. There was a shower available in the room to rinse off before entering the float room, there are ear plugs available to block out all noise, there is «schmear» in little cups to put on any wounds so they don’t sting while in the float tank. I chose an hour float session which flew by for the first 50 minutes. I got a little antsy for the last 10. This was a very interesting experience. It was difficult to clear my mind at first and let it all go, but once I was able to do that more, this was highly enjoyable. It’s a very different sensation: suspended without being tethered to anything. I really liked it and would absolutely do it again.
I got into the shower after the float session to wash off the salt and magnesium. Every single bottle of product to use in the shower was essentially empty. I got mildly clean and went o get dressed. The lotion bottle was basically empty as well. When I told the woman behind the desk as I was leaving she apologized and offered me samples to take, which was very kind. Ironically, they were samples of the only things that I was able to use in the shower. Overall, I liked this spa and would come back. Hopefully they get better at stocking their products.

Very modern, clean office area and floating room. The staff are very, very helpful and courteous. Each person gets their own floating room, so privacy is not an issue. Floating Lotus offers complementary shower products for your showers before and after your float. There’s a hefty penalty if you pee in the float, so don’t. This was my first float ever, and I’m very glad I did it with Floating Lotus. I have another appointment next Thursday. :-)

Beautiful experience in all aspects.
Float room is fantastic. Owners and employees are very nice, helpful, and well organized.

Beautiful space and if you have never floated — do yourself a favour and try it! Absolutely wonderful and very clean!

Wow! Floating Lotus show know how to show hospitality, i was blown away by the service, appearance, and everything they have to offer. I took a float as a first timer i can say it was the most amazing experience, it leaves you feeling AMAZING FOR DAYS! Besides the float everything was top notch from A-​Z everything was done right! and don’t get me started on their Yoga room, You just gotta check that out for your self.

My boyfriend and I decided to try Floating for the first time and experienced it at Floating Lotus. It was truly an amazing experience. Joel was extremely helpful and gave us great direction as to what to expect. The space is beautiful and quaint in such a bustling city. The amenities are great and very clean. After floating I felt extremely relaxed, and the effects lasted through the next day. I highly recommend Floating Lotus!

Every detail has been thought of at Floating Lotus. The space is inviting, the staff friendly, and the experience indescribable. As a first time floater I was apprehensive about the possibility of being in a sensory deprivation tank. There was nothing to be concerned about! The tank was a big shallow tub with plenty of overhead space and there was even an optional light should I not be ok in the dark (but I was). The amenities are beautiful. Each room is designed with a different chakra theme and designed tastefully. The Himalayan salt room was a great addition after the float to help ease back into the reality that is the streets of NYC. Floating Lotus is an oasis in this city.

Wow, holy treat yo self! This place was the ultimate. You walk in and are whisked up to their amazing penthouse sanctuary, where Joel and Jackie treat you like family. But cool family, with a NYC penthouse. My boo and I did their couples sacral heart package and lounged in their infrared himalayan seasalt sanctuary, then tripped out in their sensory deprivation room (NOT POD, BUT ROOM) and got hands down the best massage I have ever received from Marielle. Marielle has an incredibly soothing voice, made sure the pressure was okay throughout the hour (I’m always guilty of asking for harder, when honestly, sometimes I like it not too hard?) and then gave us some tips for should tension relief. Joel and Jackie checked in throughout the treatment and made me feel like I could spend an entire day just lounging in their sacred space (which you totally can!) Thanks, I’m gonna be a lifer

I used to receive laser removal hair services at their old location and they were awesome.
I was invited to the opening of their new space and it was amazing.
Space: Serene, clean and spacious. It makes you want to get your zen on.
Service: They give you slippers as soon as you come in and offer you water or tea. The laser provides great result and unlike other places I have been to, they blow cold air to combat the pain. The process is always super quick and they give you aloe and lavender to soothe the area. Jackie is amazing; super friendly and continuously ask you if you’re ok throughout the session. She should teach customer service classes, that’s how good she is!
I am looking forward to trying some of their other services like the infrared sauna.
They also send you occasional 10−20% off discounts via e-​mail which is awesome!
Love this place!
Keep up the good work.

This place is a total stress relief oasis in the heart of midtown, where stress is unavoidable. It is clean, smells good with calming music and the nicest people who are generous with their time. Even when busy, each client is given undivided attention. I bought a Groupon for float therapy hoping to find relief for ongoing back pain and I admit I was skeptical and concerned about being in a dark room and feeling claustrophic. The folks gave a thorough, reassuring briefing. I was able to just relax at some point and enjoy the weightlessness, found relief for my pain and was calm for several days when I am normally excitable and constantly thinking. I am not the pampering self indulgent type. The experiences I’ve had (I have since returned for accupunture), are about healing and not vanity. The owners and workers genuinely care about people. Highly recommend!

I tried the sensory-​deprivation float room for an hour. I didn’t really know what to expect going in, I had only heard it was a rare and interesting experience. Joel was very helpful and told me exactly what I needed to know before going in – no more, no less. The float turned out to be amazing! It was an extremely relaxing and a surprisingly introspective experience. Essentially you are in a large bathtub in complete darkness, hearing nothing, smelling nothing, and only touching the water beside you. It sounds surreal, yes, but it really allows you to reflect and ponder over issues you would not otherwise make time to really think about. I definitely recommend trying it out!
Also, the amenities at the facility are really top-​notch. The rainfall shower is nice and they supply any toiletries you may need to enjoy your experience to the fullest (q-​tips, shampoo, earplugs, etc.) Not to mention, the staff are all very nice and attentive.
Overall, it was a very relaxing, intriguing experience. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would go again.

Amazing experience and excellent service. Jackie was incredibly patient and helpful explaining my 1^st float. Clean, quiet and very calming.
Hope to be back soon.

Peaceful atmosphere, beautiful place, the staff is very attentive.
It’s really worth the detour

I just finished my first float at Floating Lotus and I am very happy. I can’t say much more that hasn’t already been mentioned — the facility is impeccably clean, comfortable, quiet, and beautiful. (The view to the terrace/​the glass ceiling upstairs is lovely). The float itself is essentially a wonderfully zen bath. I felt like I was floating through the universe.
Jackie and Joel strike the perfect balance between professional and down to earth. I know that this business will see many more happy customers in the future. Please pay them a visit and treat yourself to an oasis here in the bustling city.

The entire space is beautiful and calming. The aesthetics are spot on. My 90 minute floating experience was relaxing and renewing. The staff was extremely kind and accommodating. Definitely a great experience!

This place is wonderful. The service is great and it has such a relaxing atmosphere! Thank you, Jackie!

I found this spa through Lifebooker. It was a wonderful experience start to finish. The whole space is very inviting. I came in during a snowstorm and did not want to leave!
I received the deep pore cleansing facial from Angel and it was very thorough and relaxing.
My skin has felt amazing all week and I definitely got that glow back that I was looking for. She knew exactly what my skin needed.
Angel also gave me samples of the serum and moisturizers she used and they are great.
Highly recommended!

This place is legit! Super Clean! Super Friendly! I can spend hours here and still not take advantage of everything they have to offer.

Floating Lotus is a hidden gem tucked away in NYC. Floating creates such a relaxed state which stays with you. The staff here is friendly and professional and the facility clean and calming. Wish I had more time to try some of the other modalities they offer. Next time I’m in NYC I’ll be back.

I went to Floating Lotus after a wisdom tooth extraction for acupuncture and I have no pain! The staff is professional and warm. The facilities are clean, inviting and relaxing. I would highly recommend for all your treatments.

Yes Floating Lotus is Heaven! Jackie is professional, top-​notch for hair laser removal! Your
treated like Family! I got lucky I found this place!!!

This is a lovely environment, relaxing, clean. The staff is very attentive. The facilities are spotless, with an extensive offering of spa and acupuncture treatments; but the flotation tank is the main event. The body-​temperature water is saturated with mineral salts at a concentration higher than the Dead Sea, so you go in, turn out the lights, and lie down to float in the pool for a totally relaxing experience. We booked some more sessions!

I can’t say enough good things about my experience at Floating Lotus. I booked a flotation appointment, something I have wanted to try for a long time. The spa is beautiful and incredibly clean. The floating room, is an actual room, so I didn’t feel claustrophobic at all. The float was delightful, the water was warm and I was able to deeply relax. Afterwards I was offered some water and relaxed some more in their super zen and cozy chill space. The staff was so helpful from start to finish and made me feel at home. I enjoyed the experience so much that I purchased a three float package. I can’t wait for my next float at this incredible spa!

This place is heaven in midtown!
The space: completely zen spa atmosphere with beautiful attention to detail– crystals in each room, lovely décor and a mini jellyfish tank in the lobby. There is a salt room upstairs, a gorgeous sauna and an incredible open space with a glass dome roof where they host meditation and yoga classes as well as private events!
The treatment: had the pleasure of receiving acupuncture from Joel, followed by a float. It was a completely relaxing experience that energized me for the following few days. The float room is open, so you don’t have to worry about feeling claustrophobic and it’s very clean! The air smells like fresh rain from ozonation. The products they supply in the showers to use for after the float are top quality and smell divine.
The people: The owners and staff are the sweetest, most attentive people in the world. I can not say enough good things about this place

This spa is amazing! The facilities are beautiful, comfortable and super clean! Went for my first acupuncture and float session to kick off my week, not only did I feel stress free when I walked out, but I feel amazing since!
Joel was great, gave me a guided tour of the facility and walked me through all of the treatments with great orientation and made me feel comfortable from the get go.
I’m definitely coming back for both acupuncture and for a float! Highest recommendations for this place and for Joel and Jackie!

Last week I went to Floating Lotus to try the float room. I have never tried one before, I imagined it would be like floating in the dead sea with my eyes closed. I was wrong, this experience was so much better. I felt as if I was transformed to a cave and I was floating in it. Such a transformative, relaxation state I was in. On top of all that my skin felt amazing! My float experience was one of a kind, fortunately for me all I need to do is book again to get another one of a kind experience. Thank you to everyone at Floating Lotus for making my experience amazing. I can not wait to come back!
