Magnesium Float Therapy in Campbellfield, Melbourne

A busy mind. A demanding week. Time you rarely get to yourself. Sometimes the appointment you want is simply a quiet space where nothing needs a response.

People explore float therapy for dedicated rest, mental decompression and a low-stimulation experience. Buoyant water supports your body without swimming or effort. How restful it feels is individual; there is no particular feeling you need to achieve.

1. Arrive with time to settle

Try to avoid rushing straight from a stressful activity. We explain the room, pod controls and shower/hygiene instructions, and answer your questions.

2. Get comfortable

You can float without swimwear to reduce contact with fabric or wear swimwear if you prefer. Towels are provided; earplugs are not. Remove contact lenses before entering.

3. Let the water support you

The dense magnesium-salt solution supports you at the surface. The water is maintained at approximately 36.5°C and contains approximately 400 kg of pharmaceutical-grade Epsom salts.

You remain in control of your experience. Some people settle quickly; others take time to become familiar with the quiet and stillness. You do not need to fall asleep or meditate.

4. Rinse and return to your day

Showers are available before and after your float so you can rinse off the salt. Bring a hairbrush and comfortable clothing for afterwards.

You can begin with one float to become familiar with the experience. Some clients return as part of a wind-down routine or use a five- or ten-session pack.

Float sessions are included in My BioHealth Stress Reset and Sleep Optimisation Programs. Explore memberships or ask the team about options. Program names do not guarantee a sleep or stress outcome.

Epsom salt creates a dense solution that supports you at the surface. Warm water and reduced light and sound create a low-stimulation environment for rest.

Floatation-REST means Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy. Research explores relaxation, stress-related responses and changes in brain activity. It does not establish a guaranteed brain state or response from your session.

“Magnesium” describes the salt used in the float. This appointment is not offered as a treatment for magnesium deficiency or a substitute for prescribed supplementation.

• Have a light meal; avoid arriving very hungry or overly full.
• Avoid alcohol, caffeine, energy drinks and other stimulants for several hours beforehand.
• Avoid shaving or waxing immediately before your session; salt water can sting irritated skin.
• Wait until fresh hair colour or spray tan has fully developed and no longer transfers into water.
• Bring a hairbrush and comfortable clothing.
• Follow the team’s shower and hygiene instructions.
• Remove contact lenses before entering the pod.

Pregnant clients are welcome to enquire about floating at My BioHealth. Let the team know when booking so we can discuss comfort and individual needs, including leaving the lid open or available support options.

Buoyant water supports the body while you rest. This experience is not a promise of relief for pregnancy symptoms.

If your pregnancy is high risk, you have complications, feel unwell or have been advised to restrict activities, speak with your GP, midwife or obstetrician before attending. We can discuss your individual suitability before the session.

Contact us before booking if you have open wounds, cuts, fresh tattoos, a skin infection, an infectious illness, incontinence, uncontrolled epilepsy, significant claustrophobia or kidney disease.

The lid can remain open, but severe claustrophobia still needs a conversation about comfort and suitability. Do not float under the influence of alcohol or other substances.

This is a guide, not a complete screening list. Let us know about relevant health concerns or anything you are unsure about before booking.

Floatation-REST studies explore short-term relaxation, anxiety/stress-related responses and feasibility in selected groups. Research methods, populations and session conditions vary.

A 2018 open-label study examined responses before and after one hour of floating in 50 participants. Without a control group, it cannot establish that floating caused every reported change. A 2024 randomised safety and feasibility trial studied repeated REST formats with an active comparator; that is not a guarantee of a clinical result from your visit.

Read the 2018 float study, 2024 safety and feasibility trial or our Evidence Hub. The quiet and buoyancy are features of the appointment; specific psychological or medical outcomes need their own evidence.

Explore Infrared Sauna and Red Light Therapy as other My BioHealth appointments. These are separate experiences; no proven combined effect is promised.

Use the existing service question form, call 0430 077 330 or email the team before booking if you have a suitability or shared-session question.
