August is national wellness month!
Mark - Float Boston
Here’s Why That Matters
Before we begin I have some exciting news! We are introducing meditation music as a free upgrade to the float tanks. It’s in Summer Sky 3, and rolling out to the rest in a matter of days! This is optional, let me know before you float if you want it added. Check out what’s available here! My favorite is Cosmic Voyage. I just had it on in my float and it was absolutely perfect.
Now on to August!
August isn’t just the last full month of summer — it’s also National Wellness Month, a time dedicated to focusing on self-care, building healthy habits, and taking meaningful steps toward mental and physical well-being. And honestly, it couldn’t come at a better time.
Between the heat, the back-to-school prep, and the general mid-year burnout, August tends to sneak up on us in the worst way. That’s why National Wellness Month has gained so much traction in recent years. People are finally giving themselves permission to hit pause, recharge, and prioritize what really matters — their health. Ask yourself, are you taking good care of your mental health?
At Float Boston, we’re all about making that reset actually happen. And to celebrate National Wellness Month, we’ve created a limited-time Wellness Reset Package designed to support your mind and body from every angle.
But First—What Is National Wellness Month?
Started as a grassroots wellness campaign, National Wellness Month has grown into a national movement encouraging people to practice more self-care, manage stress, and build routines that support long-term health.
While the term “wellness” gets thrown around a lot, here’s what it really means during this month:
- Taking intentional time to de-stress
- Nourishing your mental health
- Reducing physical tension
- Finding ways to feel more balanced, calm, and in control
It’s about real life, not perfection — and building routines that serve you long after August ends, because pretty soon school starts, then before you know it its Christmas!
Why Now? Why Wellness?
Since 2020, we’ve seen a major shift. More people are burnt out, anxious, or simply running on empty. National Wellness Month became a rallying cry — not for spa days or green smoothies (though we’re not knocking those), but for intentional, restorative self-care.
This is where float therapy, targeted recovery tools, and stress relief techniques come in — not as indulgences, but as part of a practical mental health strategy.
Our Wellness Reset Package — Built for August (But Designed for You)
To honor this month, we built a 3-part experience to help you unwind, reset, and breathe again — even if just for a moment. Here’s what’s included:
2 Float Sessions (60 minutes)
Float therapy reduces sensory input and allows your body and brain to enter a deep state of rest. It helps lower cortisol (your stress hormone), reduces muscle tension, and boosts creativity and sleep. Basically, it’s a shortcut to feeling like yourself again.
2 Massage Chair Sessions (20 minutes)
These aren’t your average massage chairs — they use advanced programming to target specific muscle groups and calm the nervous system. They massage from the glutes all the way to your neck. Piano arm massage, calf & foot massage? Yes and thank you. You’ll walk out feeling lighter, looser, and mentally clearer.
2 Mood Enhancement Cryotherapy Sprays
Float therapy quiets external noise—cryotherapy wakes up your internal systems. These targeted sprays use localized cold to rapidly activate the sympathetic nervous system, triggering a release of norepinephrine, a natural mood-lifter known to reduce anxiety, boost focus, and improve mental clarity.
While floating soothes your body into deep rest, cryo spray brings your mind back online—clear, uplifted, and ready. Used together, they offer a fast, drug-free, and non-invasive path to total nervous system reset. It’s why so many of our clients pair them: one calms the storm, the other fuels the comeback.
Why These Three? Because Wellness Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All
We designed this trio to support your entire system:
- Physical recovery and tension relief (massage + float)
- Mental clarity and emotional calm (float + cryo)
- Nervous system regulation and mood support (cryo + float)
Whether you’re new to float therapy or a regular who just needs a reason to come back, this is your chance to treat yourself to something deeper than relaxation — true wellness.
The fine print:
This package is only available through the month of August. It’s part of our commitment to help you build better habits — and give you a reason to start now. It’s limited to one per person. The massage chair may not be here until the second week of August, but never fear, with this special the credits won’t expire for 6 months so you have plenty of time to use them.
Reserve your Wellness Reset Package for $200 here and give your mind and body the reset they’ve been asking for.
Because you can’t pour from an empty cup — but you can float in one.
