Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Find answers to the most common questions about Floating Therapy. If you can’t find what you’re looking for here, please contact us.

Is floating therapy safe if I have mild anxiety or take daily prescription meds?

Many people with mild anxiety or stable, doctor-prescribed medications can float safely, but we ask you to tell our team about any mental health diagnoses and all medications before booking. Some medications affect sensory perception or balance; in those cases we may request written clearance from your prescriber or recommend an initial shorter session. We’ll review your health details during a no-rush consultation so you feel comfortable and supported.

What should I do to prepare for my first float in Berkeley at Lumina?

Arrive hydrated, avoid heavy meals right before your session, and skip caffeine for a few hours if you want deeper relaxation. Shower at the studio (we provide private rooms and toiletries), remove contact lenses, and avoid shaving just before floating to reduce skin irritation from the salt. Plan to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early for a brief intake so we can customize the experience.

How long is a typical float and what happens during the session?

Standard sessions run 60 or 90 minutes. After a short orientation, you’ll enter a private float room with a sensory-reduced environment and a warm, highly salted solution that supports effortless buoyancy. Many clients spend the session breathing quietly or drifting to rest; soft lighting and optional music can be used for the first and last few minutes. We’ll check in after the float to make sure you feel steady before leaving.

Is there parking or public transit near Lumina’s Berkeley location, and is it convenient for an after-work visit?

Our Berkeley studio is within easy reach of local BART stations and several bus routes, and there is on-street metered parking as well as nearby paid lots. Evening appointments are popular with working clients and we offer late weekday slots to accommodate after-work visits. If you drive, allow extra time for downtown traffic; if you take transit, a short walk from BART usually gets you here comfortably.

I live in Berkeley, IL – is it practical to drive to Lumina in Schiller Park for a floating therapy session, and what should I plan for parking and total visit time?

Yes-most clients from Berkeley find Lumina easy to reach. Drive time is typically about 15 to 25 minutes depending on traffic (roughly 8 to 10 miles). We have on-site client parking with a marked lot directly outside the building, and there is additional street parking nearby if the lot is full. Plan to block roughly 90 to 120 minutes for your visit: 15 to 30 minutes for check-in and orientation, a 60 to 90 minute float, and a few minutes to shower and change afterward. If you prefer not to drive, rideshare drop-offs are convenient at our entrance. Before you come, try to avoid heavy meals or strong fragrances and bring a water bottle; we supply towels and basic toiletries.
