Infrared Jade Sauna Cocoon at FLOATWELL

The Infrared Jade Sauna Cocoon is just one of many services available at FloatWell. They offer therapeutic massages, single or double-person floats, an infrared steam sauna cocoon, compression therapy, body wraps, localized cryo, and facials. During my tour, I learned that they have even more than what’s listed on their website. 

The owner, Amy, is a licensed massage therapist for over 20 years and started FloatWell with a holistic approach in mind. After a massage, she wanted to provide a relaxing retreat to continue a true balance in whole-body healing.

She also wanted to introduce her clients to the additional benefits of floating and saunas as well as new treatments she’s currently researching. When you book a service with her, share your story and as she assesses, she may use other modalities such as a whole-body vibration machine, body composition analyzer, or nutritional supplements to expand your wellness journey.

Of all the options, I decided to try one of the cocoon services. The infrared jade sauna cocoon is not like a traditional sauna, it is a vibrating platform in a warm cocoon lined with jade stones, red LED light therapy and Himalayan salt particles. It’s designed to rebuild cells, detox metals, and relax muscles. After 30 minutes at 98°, I didn’t break much of a sweat but I did experience something phenomenal. 

Once I brought the cover down, I was enclosed in a futuristic machine and free to exit if I needed to. The vibrating platform fully brought my awareness to the present. After 10 minutes I noticed I was unconsciously holding my facial muscles, I opened my eyes and thought “I can’t wait to see what else this shakes out of me.”

In the structured cocoon, I moved around and noticed that my skin was much softer. When I got my eyebrows done with Emily the esthetician, she mentioned that red LED light therapy was good for my combination skin which I’ll be sure to add to future services. 

In the last 10 minutes of the cocoon, I was in a high-energy state. Earlier in the week, my craniosacral practitioner introduced me to Reiki healing. I felt that the high energy from the Infrared Jade Sauna Cocoon could be focused between my hands and enhance my session on an energetic level. 

I rubbed my hands together and opened the space between them, sensing a ball of energy that connects my palms. I held my arms over my stomach for several minutes without fatigue. I imagined positive energy expanding around me, the cocoon, and the whole spa with a rush of gratitude for the staff who share a genuine appreciation for wellness. 

My experience with the Infrared Jade Sauna Cocoon gave me more than I expected. I felt beautiful, glowy, and wide-eyed, what a wild and healing experience in only 30 minutes. I have to give credit to the combination of all the therapies in one cool cocoon.

FloatWell centers its values around giving back to the community and often donates opportunities to spread wellness to diverse communities. I’m very grateful I was able to meet their kind staff and experience new healing technologies. Whenever I pass through Vancouver, Washington, I’ll be sure to hop in that cocoon again and try a chocolate mousse body wrap and strawberry rhubarb masque.
