Reviews of Float North
John Schiavo
Overall wonderful experience. One of the most relaxing and surreal things I’ve ever experienced. Closest thing to weightlessness aside from going to Space. My host was great. The 60-min block was just enough time. Very clean facility, with just about all the amenities you could need. I plan to be back.
Paris Sabouri
This place is amazing, from beginning to end I was treated with love and respect. The facility is super clean and the tubs are flawless. Staff are super friendly and kind. I had my first float followed by massage ( highly recommend) my therapist (Andrew) was extremely professional and knowledgeable, I came in with a lot of pain in my right shoulder and he was able to find the root of the problem immediately. I ended my experience with sound therapy which elevated the effect of everything. 10/10 recommend this place. :)
Thank you so much!
Kelly Draxton
Float North is an amazing space with fantastic people. Dana is really passionate about making sure all clients get the care they need. Kimy has been supporting me with regular prenatal massage and she really hears what you need at each session. If you've never done a float before, I highly recommend!
Jessica Jarchow
What a truly INCREDIBLE experience!!! Everything about this place is so thoughtful and well maintained. I love how accessibility is prioritized and the robe is a 4x! I did the float massage combo and i highly recommend it. I went in with about a 7-8/10 pain level and I left feeling like that was a distant memory. I saw Andrew for massage and I was so impressed by his consent practices and communication style but also his targeted work on my shoulder made a world of difference <3 Thank you so much to everyone at Float North for today’s experience!!
Roseanna Colabella
Not only is the staff of Float North warm and welcoming but so is the float space. Walking into a float room is like walking into a cocoon of peace. Everything that you could possibly need is set up for you on a bench including: ear plugs, neck support a robe and plenty of towels. You can leave all your worries at the door as you immerse yourself in a blanket of buoyant salt water and drift into a your sense of Zen.
I personally, am so grateful for the convenient location which gives me the opportunity to regularly partake in these services. Regular float sessions helps me keep my stress and anxiety at bay.
Another lovely aspect is the Ready Room, filled with all the amenities you need to leave feeling fresh and put together. having access to a hair dryer, ear swabs, a comb, lotion and more means I don't have to carry it with me which is a huge convivence.
If you ever considered floating I highly recommend Float North.
Great staff, great services and a simple way to relax, rejuvenate and recover from the overwhelm of the day to day.

Was nervous about floating because I am claustrophobic. However these float tanks are more like rooms then a tanning bed. I was very comfortable. The experience was very relaxing and my joints thanked me afterwards. The sensation that surprised me was the weightlessness. Being weightless was a break from the body dysmorphic thoughts that are relentless in my mind. Whole heartedly recommend. And Float North was spotlessly clean and staff very friendly.
Cia Cortinas
My husband and I went for new years day. Float North staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I floated and my husband used the sound bed. We will absolutely be back!
Kronda Adair
I have had floating 'on my radar' to try for years so I was so happy to meet owner Dana and learn about this place. Just walking into the space is so calming it really facilitates the process if disconnecting from the overwhelming outside world.
Dana told me everything I could ever want to know about what to expect for my first session and the experience was completely sublime!
Adding a massage afterwards took everything to the next level.
The whole staff is so welcoming and really, I couldn't ask for a better self-care experience!
Denise Adan
I can not express enough how much I love Float North. Dana has created a clean, well thought out and well maintained space for healing and growth. I've had a lot massages in my life and this is my favorite spot for massage therapy in town. I haven't gone to float anywhere else in PDX but I don't even bother to explore because my experience here is bomb. Dana and her staff are professional and genuinely caring and I wish wish wish I could benefit from Float North's services on a weekly basis.
Also, floating has been the only therapy to get my shoulder out of acute flare ups. When this happens the pain is agonizing and relentless I could scream. I feel so blessed that I have floating in my self care tool kit to prevent unnecessary inflammation and pain.
12/06/2022 update - Fernando is an amazing massage therapist who figures out what tissues are locked up and works comfortably to release them. I was amazed after a treatment with him how open my body felt. Highly recommend him!
Rutherford Allmand
Kimy was amazing! She took time to really tune in to what I needed and gave me an excellent massage. I’ve had close to 200 massages in my life, and Kimy was one of the best ever!"
Shawna L. Dronen
First time floating today with my boyfriend, we did the double tub together. I think that was great for our first time. But I think floating by yourself could be more relaxing. You are super buoyant in the magnesium solution. So much so that after about 30 minutes, it feels as though you are laying on something. The hour was a perfect amount of time and I felt super relaxed after. Wonderful staff! Super clean.
Eevee DeLioncourt
What a beautiful healing space. The staff were all amazing, the facilities were impeccably clean and well cared for, and the pricing matched the value of the services. I had a 60 min float session which was deeply therapeutic, private, and fully accommodating. I also received a 90 minute massage from the LMT Kimy; I receive deep structural massage frequently for chronic structural issues and I must say Kimy's skills and intuition exceed expectation. Such a wonderful experience. I look forward to my next session!
Jackie Warren
Float North is superb. I went in for a float after a long hiatus of floating anywhere and was blown away by the top-notch service. The space is SO relaxing and the facilities are squeaky clean and well-equipped for a true spa-like experience. Dana and staff were amazing - super welcoming, kind, and helpful from beginning to end. And the float itself was spectacular! No outside noises in the background or light seeping in from anywhere. I LOVED the spaciousness of the tank, the starlight ceiling and lighting options, the dreamy music, and the freedom to fall into the experience. I fell into a blissful sleep and woke up feeling like I had slept for hours. I’m looking forward to going back and incorporating some of their other services. Check them out!
Mark Retzlaff
My girlfriend and I had an amazing experience at Float North! Dana took the time to explain the entire process before our first float and anticipated all our questions and gave us great advice on enjoying the experience. The staff is super friendly and really passionate about making sure you feel comfortable and have fun.
The facilities are all absolutely pristine and they take their COVID protocols seriously. Highly professional and affordable. You'll feel amazing afterwards!
Argwyn Sunshine
Float North is amazing! A beautiful, peaceful, healing space. Everything you need to float is provided. Dana was welcoming and gave a quick tour and offered some info into the science behind floating and tips for floating. The tubs are beautiful and super clean. I had a wonderful experience. It's so special to find a place to just release everything and go inward.And to feel so supported by the environment and people working there is extra special and makes it a safe place to let go and relax for awhile. Excited for for my float next week. Wish I could do one everday
Robin Kopps-Kopra
My float and massage were sublime. The facility is clean, the lighting is low and pleasant, and the entire staff is calm and knowledgeable with a healing nature.
I had forgotten what it was like to feel fully relaxed. The staff of Float North reminded me.
I would recommend this to anyone and everyone seeking some pause in their lives.
One of if not the best gift I’ve ever received.
Katie Reynolds
I can’t speak highly enough of Float North! I am completely new to floating and was unsure what to expect, even though the website is incredibly helpful and informative. Dana walked me through all of the steps, tips and gave me such a wonderful experience. I felt completely comfortable, safe and relaxed. The facility itself is clean calming and beautiful. The float was incredible; when I first got in I thought "geez an hour seems like a pretty long time"… then all of a sudden it was over! The tank (?) is way more spacious than I expected, and I did not feel at all claustrophobic. I couldn’t believe how fast the time went by and how amazing it felt...just weightless and free. Unlike anything I’ve ever experienced before -what an amazing feeling – you can’t even tell what parts of your body are submerged and what parts aren’t. So cool. I didn’t know that a float can also help the efficacy of your massage, and I thoroughly enjoyed that as well! Christine is amazing and you can tell she really cares! If I had the budget for it, I would schedule the float/massage combo every single week. I seriously cannot wait to do it again!
Greg Griffin
Amazing float center! I booked a float for a couple of hours after I landed in Portland for a business trip (something I always do when traveling to help reset myself after flights) and the space was beautiful. Dana, the owner, was there and greeted me as soon as I walked in. She showed me around and gave me great instructions for her float room. The float room was very well soundproofed so with the music off I was able to drift away in my own little world. Beyond my great float, the space is just so warm and welcoming. I love the colors and layout of the space. I walked passed a massage room as Dana showed me around and it made me wish I would have made time for one! I was a little worried about parking driving my rental car to the location but I found a spot very nearby quite easily. I highly recommend Float North for anyone looking to float in Portland, for your first float or if you are an avid floater like myself and happen to be in the area. Well done, Float North! Thank you!
jill morris
It was over 20 years ago I'd had my first "float tank" experience and somewhat reluctant to give it another go. Float North FAR surpassed the past experience. I felt so totally relaxed and safe that within the first few minutes of my float, I actually fell asleep. The staff are amazing and covered all my questions. The environment is impeccably clean with everything well thought out. New to Portland, I wish I knew more people to share of the experience. I highly recommend!
Emily Spates
I can not recommend Float North enough!! This is the first float I had done in the states in a long time, and Dana was so amazing touring me around the facility and explaining me different techniques and the process of moving from first float to second and thirds and what to expect.
The facility is beautiful, quiet, calm and nicely laid out! The massage staff is wonderful (can't wait to go back for that as well!)
The experience is worth it, from just having an hour of peace and quiet to the physically effects of calm, better sleep, and just feeling reset and happy afterwards is amazing!
And thank you Dana for always willing to share more about the science and experience of floating, I love the geeking out part and appreciate you sharing your knowledge with others!
jeremy rothstein
I booked an appointment yesterday and yes I am so glad I did. I have floated in many different float tanks in many different places, and this was by far the most quiet sound proof floating I've ever experienced. I had a wonderful float. The facilities were sterile clean, which I really appreciate in float centers. Dana the owner checked me in and showed me the ropes. She is so very nice and sweet. I booked two floats back to back and that was perfect for me. I love the stars in the float room, and how there's a button for the stars and a separate button for the bottom light which I've never seen before.
Thank you! I truly enjoyed my experience at Float North today.
There is also free convenient parking😁
Melody M
The SomaWave therapy is really lovely and relaxing. I opted for the 60 minute slide, which moves through a range of frequencies. I had a very interesting sense of the energy moving around in my body immediately after the vibration stopped, and a pleasant, calm, mentally and energetically clear sensation for the remainder of the day.
I will definitely be coming back for more treatments and I look forward to seeing the long term effects of this modality.
Float North is a very beautiful and serene space, and the attention to detail is impeccable. Dana and the team there make each visit very welcoming. I highly recommend their services.
Lily Doebler
This place is amazing. The staff are wonderful, the space is beautiful, and the float tanks are spacious and lovely. It is clean and their safety protocols are spot on. Floating brings so much peace and relaxation. I also had a great massage with Jessica. I’m hooked!
Evita L
Float North is an amazing spa to align my body and mind. The float rooms are state of the art. The anteroom has ample space for pre-float preparations and shower. The float tank is spacious with tall ceilings and ample arm width space. The staff and owner are spectacular. They genuinely care about the clients and try to accommodate our needs. Float North is a community, not just another float place.
In addition, I recently tore my ACL and Float North helped me rehab faster and with less pain! After each float session I could feel greater range of motion in my knee. The float+massage combo is a life-saver and helped me get back up and running faster and healthier!
Jessica LMT give the best deep tissue massage! She is an experienced and skilled masseuse. She feels the distinct fascial and deep tissue layers and releases the tension accordingly. She is also wonderful at cupping.
Gabrielle Goodloe
Where to begin with compliments! We were recommended to Float North by a friend and my husband and I tried floating for the first time. Dana, the owner, sat with us, gave us amazing information, and then took us on a tour of the facility. As soon as you walk in you're immidiately at ease with the relaxing atmosphere/decor. The float experience was amazing, but the business itself is what really seals the deal. We left after excitedly telling Dana about our experience with the float and a giving them a big hug. We left feeling like we had made a new friend and a new home for self-care. This place is EVERYTHING.
Sara Fitzgerald
The first time I came here was maybe a month or 2 ago and I was absolutely blown away by the customer service. I was there for a float and was warmly greeted by the front desk and then given a over the top (in a good way) your. They were kind enough to offer me choice of the 3 float rooms because I happened to be the only one floating at that time. I was very impressed by the room that you could use after your float. There were vanities with hair dryers, q tips, everything you need and want after a float. Unfortunately I wasn't able to use it because I was meeting someone after my appointment but I definitely plan on using it next time! The actual float itself was lovely too. I used one of the ocean rooms and enjoyed the fact I was woken up with music and lights. Thank you for an excellent experience.
Maggie Yu
The owner Dana is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The space is gorgeous, clean, relaxing. The water is the perfect temperature, the tanks themselves are spacious, clean, and nurturing to be in. This is a wonderful place to float. I have found so many benefits to floating including, reduced pain, better sleep, and better mental clarity. Love it and love Float North. Must try.
Sharri Miller Regan
I start PT this coming week for an old neck and shoulder injury that has been getting progressively worse over time. Without a doubt, the #1 benefit from this first appointment is that my neck has not felt this comfortable in a decade and as a result I slept through the entire night without waking up even once. Super stoked to book my next appointment and add floating to my injury recovery plan.
Also, the quality and cleanliness of the facility along with the very kind and professional staff seriously exceeded any expectations --Float North is topnotch.
Such a great experience, thank you!

Mary ONeill
This was an AMAZING EXPERIENCE.
If you are interested, go as soon as you can to float.
I highly recommend having a Float North float experience (or many experiences ;-). The space is beautifully designed, physically and energetically clean. The tanks are spacious, clean and state of the art.
The owner, Dana, was friendly, helpful, and clearly explained everything I needed to know to have a great float experience.
The float was an amazing, relaxing experience.
I felt like I was floating in a womb. The float can be done with lights/music and or without. I started with lights/music and then went to darkness / silence. My whole body had time to float, relax and unwind.
I had just finished a body based training - and this float experience helped me integrate the experience and take my learnings to a deeper level.
I highly recommend you float at Float North.
P.S. I got a starter 3 float pack for a discounted rate and am looking forward to my next float.
Jennifer Haybittle
My massage therapist told me about Float North and floating is one of the best things I've done for my well being. After only 4 floats I have this inner calm and noticed I don't react so quickly and impatiently. Dana and staff our helpful, providing a serene and extremely clean place to float. Highly recommend!!
Yvonne de Maat
What a luxurious float experience! The space is gorgeous and puts you right at ease. The private cabin with shower was well supplied with soaps, earplugs and a neck rest. Clearly, all the details have been carefully thought out, and this is their first month! Very impressive!
Oh, and then there is the float; relaxing and transcending. Highly recommended to recharge and refocus. Dana created a true sanctuary!
Jess
Float North is amazing. Went after my first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and my arm was hurting. The first benefit I really noted after this appointment was the mental clarity I experienced throughout the rest of the day. I was foggy coming out which to me meant I really rested but the rest of the day I felt more alert and "with it" than I have in a very long-time. The second I just didn't expect: my arm felt so much better!! While still a bit sore post, it was *way* worse when I started than when I ended the float so I was grateful for that timing!!
Hallie Orr
i am wildly grateful to dana and all the staff for cultivating such a healing space. floating has been one of the most therapeutic treatments i have regularly participated in. i am a licensed massage therapist and outside of chiropractics and massage, floating has become vital to maintaining my health. i really do move with so much more ease when i come out of the tank. float north curates a wonderful experience from beginning to end and it shows in all the details; the robes, the sandals, the ready room, the tea. it’s so well insulated that you really do forget that you’re in the middle of the city for a couple hours. again, i am grateful and i very much look forward to the next float!
be well.
C. M
Very nice experience. I have been to other float companies in Portland and Float North was a pleasant surprise. Positive, welcoming and relaxing without the heavy handed smell of essential oils hitting you as you walk in the door. I'm already planning my next float.
Jassimine Dixon
As soon as I walk into Float North I immediately relax. Dana has cultivated a beautiful space to unwind and take full advantage of letting go of the outside world. The rooms that the float tanks are in are a perfect setup for a pre and post shower and all necessary items, like earplugs, are laid out. The tanks themselves are like mini rooms. The music at the beginning and the twinkling lights on the ceiling are such a nice touch. When it goes into complete darkness it really is light tight and I hear no outside noises at all. It's also nice that the lights controls are right there in the tank with you if you need to turn the lights on. I also really appreciate the get ready room after the float.
Jessica Mata Lang
If you’re thinking about trying a Float, this is a great place! The experience is spa-like and peaceful. The owner, Dana, goes above and beyond to make sure you are prepared and your experience is supportive for you. There is parking on site and plentiful signs to guide you upstairs to the office.
Nate Fick
If you are looking for a great holiday gift you need to consider getting your loved one a Float at Float North! Floating helps with sleep, pain relief, and stress reduction. This is the perfect gift for a stressful holiday season! I knew nothing about Floating but Dana and the staff at Float North are so helpful and knowledgeable in explaining the entire process and benefits of floating. Give it a try and you will definitely not regret it!
John Mayer
I continued to feel my float all day. I emerged to so creative writing off an idea that came to me out of the darkness. This was the most fruitful writing session in months! I needed both the physical comfort and the cognitive space to let my ideas come together. Im sure 'trying harder' would not have worked nearly as well as laying still and floating.
Rachael Elston
I’ve been coming to float north for a bit and it is such an amazing special place!
Today I went in for a reason that I’m a farmer heading into peak season and my body was so sore after this week. I decided I just needed to be calm and relax but I did not expect to step out of my float and my soreness was GONE! This morning I could barely move my leg and then to float and be completely feeling better. It’s now in my list on hard farm weeks to go and float to get rid of soreness! Yay!
Cecile Watts
I had a great first experience !
My sleep data for last night was the best I have ever had since tracking my sleep !
Dana was very welcoming, easy to talk to and made us feel at ease and super comfortable for our first ever float. The place is spotless, very clean and peaceful. I will be back !
Lizzy Morrison
My friends and I all had an incredibly relaxing and rejuvenating afternoon here. The staff was super friendly and helpful. This was a first time doing floats, so their took their time making sure we understood everything and answering all our questions. The massages were deep and just what we needed. I would highly recommend a trip to Float North if you’re looking to recharge!
Happy Barnes-Light
I wholeheartedly recommend float therapy. On my first visit to Float North I planned to deepen my meditation practice; but to my surprise, it turned into an entirely different experience. After years of dealing with chronic pain, I left my first float PAIN FREE. I plan to use this lovely facility regularly.
Randy Skeen
Hands down the best massage I’ve ever received. Dana was incredibly kind and intentional, focusing her time and energy on the areas that needed it most. The facilities were spotless and helped create a top notch experience! Highly recommend Float North!
Michael Bruno (MBRound18)
It was a fun and interesting experience, it's not for me but it was cool!
My brain is too active for this :P cool notes are:
- hair traps air really well and you hear it escape
- my nose sounded like a 737 exhaust
- if you make waves, you will never stay in one spot the whole time.
Excellent host and excellent experience!
Dale Allen
Dana welcomed us most warmly and showed us around with great care and attention. We felt completely at ease and ready for our float.
The only surprise was how deeply relaxed we got. The environment allowed me to let go of layer after layer of tension until I emerged profoundly centered, very quiet inside. It was like returning to a truer, forgotten version of myself.
We can hardly wait to go back.
Mackenzie Walen
Float North is a wonderful, practical, clean space for your spa / float needs. They have easy-to-access restroom and get-ready room for post-float. The actual floating experience is incredibly clean and accommodating. And everyone I've met that works there takes time to get to know you and meet you where you're at. I'd highly recommend trying Float North.
Brian Kroll
Float North’s newest addition to their massage therapy team; Jess, is the real deal!
I received a massage from her earlier this week. It was my first ever 90-minute massage, I’ve always done 60. I have had chronic back pain for nearly four decades and have had two major surgeries. I’m currently in a months-long major flare-up that will require another surgery in the coming weeks.
I came into the massage with my pain so high I’d been steaming tears for three straight days despite a cocktail of prescription medications. As a frequent floater, I had hopes that doing a float/massage combo would settle things just enough I could get some sleep and set myself up a little better for this last stretch of time before surgery. Massage is a true treat for me, pairing it with float is the best possible combination mutually enhancing both therapies.
Jess took time to get to know me both from a review of my history before I arrived and a conversation before we began. She worked on all areas of my body to release muscle tension and stimulate the nervous system in beneficial ways. She listened to both my body and my words to customize the treatment specifically to my needs. She set me up for an extremely relaxing and healing float right off of the table and down the hall into the tank. They provided a robe so I didn’t even have to change, just a quick shower and it was time to float!
The float is the most soothing 60 minutes I’ve had in weeks. The immaculate float suite offered privacy and a perfectly tuned float experience. They have an open float pool but I chose one of the state-of-the-art float cabins for my float vessel. Jess’s bodywork set me up to settle into the float quickly and gain maximum benefit. Even though my core pain is beyond the reach of these therapies right now my whole body just felt lighter and freer. The time flew by and left me even more comfortable than I was after the massage. I left with a much healthier mindset than I arrived with.
The effects lasted through the day and allowed for nearly four times as much sleep last night than I’d had in recent memory. Now, some 36 hours later, my core pain is still very much with me but my surface pain and overall body are in a much more peaceful and relaxed condition.
I’m already working on another session between now and my upcoming surgery. Thank You, Jess!
Tricia Leach
Float North is immaculate, comfortable and welcoming. I've had both floats and massages there, and it's one of my favorite local businesses. The owner Dana is so friendly and warm—it's always a pleasure going there.
dillingers barbershop
What a great experience! The attention to detail and care that has been put into this business is top notch. Dana and all of the practitioners truly put themselves into their work. I will be recommending them to all of my clients and friends. I can't say enough good things about my time at Float North.
Roxie Winning
I was visiting a friend in portland and she recommended a foat from float north. Wow. It was amazing. Vary clean, vary relaxing ( even for me who can not hold still) they provided everything I needed and more, beautiful tanks and vary spacious. Dana was vary informative and gracious as she showed me around and walked me through what to expect.
I would highly recommend taking a float, at float north. I know I will next time I’m in town.
Larisa Pozhilova
Absolutely incredible place: very clean, sharp, extremely friendly staff. Everything you need is available: caffeine-free tea, a robe, a towel, slippers, creams for your face and body, hair-dryers, the area to relax, massage rooms, etc. I was recommended starting floating along with the deep-tissue massage to help my body to release an extreme tension in the muscles. Just after the first session I saw one unexpected thing: I stopped having problems after taking hot yoga classes such as extreme fatigue, tiredness, sleepless nights and such. I knew that I needed to take Magnesium Sulfate to avoid them and I did along with the Epsom Salt baths at home, but it was not enough. Floating solved the problem!
Kelsey Woodward
First time floater and it won't be the last! This shop is not only beautiful, but so welcoming. I felt acknowledged, heard and taken care of in every way from walking into the door to relaxing with a cup of tea after my float. Everything was explained very thoroughly to me before my appointment which made the process so easy. I feel truly honored to discover this space at this time. Can't wait to go back :)

Kristina Jones
If you're new and thinking about where to go in town, I recommend starting at Float North. The owner and staff are genuine, knowledgeable, and passionate. If you're an experienced floater I think you'll be impressed with the facilities, amenities, and (most importantly) the vibe. It's easy to sense the intention and care put into every aspect of your experience at Float North. I highly recommend!
CJ Smith
I went for the first time today. Such a great experience! It was so great to be pain free for the first time in so long. My back pain has subsided, even after leaving. The staff was so nice, very informative. I will definitely be back, and hope to make this a regular healing part of my life.
Steve Sandie
First time but I'll definitely be back. Space is warm and inviting. Dana (owner) is incredibly welcoming and approachable. David (LMT) was fantastic and the deep tissue massage was exactly what I needed. Haven't floated but will next time. Great addition to the neighborhood.
Jean Weigant
What a wonderful experience! I'm awaiting hip replacement surgery, and have been compensating for my hip pain when I walk. Because of this, I was having aches and pains all over! After just one session, I am pretty much pain free and feeling quite relaxed and calm. I'm eager to go again.
Kelley Green
Truly amazing experience, couldn't imagine better. The big, open pools give a sense of spaciousness and timelessness. Staff is super helpful and available, but not intrusive. Time afterward to collect myself. Facility squeaky clean. I can't wait to return! I felt better afterward than the best massage I ever had.

I've had a couple of floats and will be back for more! Quiet, protected space for resting and rejuvenating. Dana and her staff put a lot of care into explaining everything and made me feel welcome and at ease. Floating at times feels kind of creative -- like I am exploring new ways to be. And afterwards for hours I notice how refreshed and relaxed I am.

I went with a friend, for a birthday treat to us both. We both did our own 60 minute float. I enjoyed my unique experience. Its a different thing for everyone. I had no idea what to expect. It was relaxing and mood elevating. I would like to do this more often. Would be a really fun date activity because you would have a lot to talk about later.

What a amazing experience!!! I have known Dana for over 10 years and she is a joy to be around. I will not allow anyone else to work on my back but her. Floating is a whole new level of comfort!! I am highly impressed with the new technology they are coming out with. I highly recommend this amazing company!!!!!

Love this place. Clean and the rooms are spacious. I love having the separate room to get ready. It is stocked with all the essentials. I have a chronic illness and floating is really helping mind body and spirit! Dana is wonderful too.

This was such a wonderful experience for me and my husband. You'll feel all your pains melt away and your nervous system unwind. I felt like a magical unicorn after an hour in the float tub. The staff are very knowledgeable and welcoming. I would reccomend this to everyone! Our brains need quiet time reset.

Float North is my oasis. I get to totally checkout, body and mind. All the stress dissolves. The facility is soooo clean and the customer service it authentic. I feel like the staff are more like old friends.
You will not be disappointed.

The most easily accessible float place in Portland. Due to my lupus flair I could hardly walk and everything is so accessible! Ramps, handicap street level parking, fairly easy to access tank! No stairs! Most important! And everything looks brand new! Exceptionally clean!
Steven Ostling
Wow what an experience. The place was immaculate, folks were so friendly and sweet, the tanks were giant. I felt like I was at a spa. I will definitely be coming back and I'm telling all my friends about it too. I could not have asked for a better experience.

5 stars all around. SO thoughtfully designed and equipped, with lovely staff, high quality products, and very relaxing atmosphere. The stars in the sky and subtle in water lights were dreamy - I tried both, and all black, and loved it all. I can't wait to go back! Highly recommend.
Philip Leavenworth
What an incredible experience. I felt totally relaxed and energized after my float. Staff is knowledgeable and professional. The ambiance is incredible. Due yourself a favor and book yourself a reservation.

I had a great experience as a novice Floater. Float North came highly recommended from one of my Friends and it lived up to his recommendation. I was given a great, friendly introduction and the place is extraordinarily clean.

Dana is professional and passionate about floating, and it is reflected in the whole experience! I love coming here to relax and let the tension out of my mind and body. My favorite floating place!
Melody Groundflyer
Marvelous first float experience! Dana, the owner is very friendly and knowledgable, shows you all around the place and makes you comfortable, giving you tips to make your experience as easy as possible. Definitely recommend, and will be back!
Natasha Hoggatt
Whitney and Dana are excellent hosts! They have a fabulous facility where they provide everything you could ever need. If you haven't been in a float tank before, this is the place to go.
Gretchen Philipps
It’s so wonderful when you get to meet people who are passionate about what they do and so eager to share the experience with others. Dana and Christine are those kind of people. My massage was one of the best I’ve ever had. Can’t wait to go back! A true gem.
Kristine

I had an awesome time! Dana was very welcoming and very good at explaining the process of the float, as well as how they are keeping the place sanitary during this time. I felt very comfortable and have been recommending this place to all my friends.
Garrett Brown
Excellent staff and wonderful service. They are incredibly COVID cautious, and walk new people through the process. I felt incredibly relaxed after my first visit, and allowed me to meditate and help my body.
Melinda Helms
I had received my COVID vaccine the day before my float, and it greatly helped with the sore injection site and overall achiness. In addition, my creaky knees have felt much better!
Jennifer Marrs
I’m in my mid-50s and I’ve spent a lot of time going to different spas over the years. But this was exceptional! I don’t think my husband or I have ever felt this relaxed. We are going back for sure!
Deb Gumbley
This is such an awesome space. Warm and welcoming. From massage to Soma Wave table to floating, this space has it all. Felt like a puddle after my massage with Keenan. Can't wait for my next float.
Helga Lang
Clean, spacious facility with a friendly atmosphere and staff. If you are recovery from an injury or post surgery, this is a place to relax and heal.
The feeling of buoyancy in an ocean like experience !

The staff is welcoming and helpful, and the facility is spotlessly clean. Its beyond amazing! Mental and physical therapy. Definitely looking forward to next visit. Thank you Dana
Lili Scott
What a wonderful experience this place has to offer. My only regret is that despite numerous suggestions from friends to try this place, it took me awhile to get there. The entire space is nicely appointed with attention to most every detail. The staff is curious and attentive and the experience of floating should in my opinion be at least some part of everyone's self care regimen. Relaxing, restorative and grounding. I'm hooked!
Jeremy DeLong
This is a beautiful float facility designed with the customer experience in mind. Absolutely clean, organized and user-friendly. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone!
Deann Anderson
