A slow facial and neck massage will relax you completely and prepare your skin for a botanical facial mask, blended especially for your skin needs. While the mask works its magic you will be treated to a complimentary foot or hand massage. And, just when you think it’s all over, the mask is removed with a hot compress and you are treated to a final massage, enhanced with anti-ageing and anti-oxidant products. We apply serum, lotion and sun care and complete your treatment with a scalp massage and fragrant mist.

Floatation tanks are a light and sound-free environment designed to allow the mind to drift into the deepest state of relaxation possible. This deep relaxation resets the body’s hormonal and metabolic balance, strengthening resistance to and accelerating recovery from the effects of stress, illness, injury or strenuous exercise.
The buoyancy created by dense epsom-salts removes the effects of gravity on the body creating an experience of total weightlessness. Once settled, it is virtually impossible to distinguish what body parts are in contact with the water and those that aren’t due to the 35.5°C water temperature. Each floatation tank contains 1000L of water with 500kg of specially formulated epsom salts added creating a depth of 30cm.

Located at Waitomo Caves Village, Waitomo Day Spa is the perfect way to start or finish your underground adventure. Caving aside, it’s also the perfect way to simply explore some quality indulgence - perhaps whilst your friends are exploring underground. This is a boutique purpose-built facility handy to everything at Waitomo including excellent food at "Adventures Café" - located in the same building.
Everything you need to know.
Don't drink coffee for at least 4 hours beforehand (it can make your system jittery). Also, don't shave or wax since the salt water can irritate your skin. Eating a light meal about an hour to 90 minutes ahead of time stops your stomach from growling while you float. Other than that, there's no specific preparation needed.
If you have longer hair, you may want to bring a comb. Also, something to put your contact lenses into while you're in the pod. Other than that, we provide everything you need (towels, earplugs, body wash/shampoo, hair dryers)
Being in the pods is more like floating in outer space than being shut in a box. You're always in control of your environment, and even people with extreme claustrophobia have reported having no problems with their time in the pod. You can even choose to float with the door open if it makes you more comfortable.
Only one person per tank. We do however have two pod rooms, so two people can come float simultaneously.
Yes, you have your own private pod room equipped with your own personal shower, which you’ll use before and after your float. For this reason, most people do not wear a swimming costume as this presses against the body and takes away from the experience.
No. The epsom salt in the water is a natural skin emollient. Your skin will feel silky smooth.
Absolutely, pregnant women love floating! There is even a special position you can float in that relieves all of the weight of the baby off of the mother's body. If you are in your third trimester, or have any concerns, please consult with your physician before coming in.
No. Some people fall asleep, but the water is so buoyant that you stay afloat. The worst that can happen is getting woken up by a bit of salt water in your eyes.
You can get out anytime. That said, the 60-minutes usually goes by way faster than you'd expect, most people are report being quite surprised when their time is up.
Floating is extremely sanitary. With the combination of our filtration system, which runs at minimum three complete filtration cycle’s after every float session and with the natural bacterial killing qualities of salt, the water inside the tank is cleaner than tap water. We also use UV light and non-toxic disinfectants in all the pods.
Floating has been around for over 60 years and has hundreds of published research to back it up. No mumbo or jumbo here.
