Float Seattle
Relaxation. Recovery. Blissful Solitude. Treat your pops, husband, friends or maybe just yourself! Floating weightlessly for an hour of peace and quiet is a thoughtful gift for anyone. Kudos to you! It doesn’t matter if they’ve never tried floating or think it’s hippie mumbo-jumbo. All it takes is giving it a chance and experiencing it for themselves. They’ll dig it. There’s a reason why athletes, creatives, and everyday hard-working people have made floating their secret weapon for living a healthier, happier life. IT WORKS. Call (206) 673-5132 with questions or to purchase over the phone.
• No limit to purchase. Hook up Dad and maybe stock up for yourself!
• Offer good through Father’s Day on 6/16
• Valid in Greenlake or Bellevue
• Float credits are shareable and never expire once purchased
