ABOUT FLOAT DOCTOR
Where Science Meets Stillness, and Healing Begins.
Root-Cause Healing Through Float Therapy, Integrative Wellness & Personal Care
The Story Behind Float Doctor:
At Float Doctor, we believe real healing happens when your body feels safe enough to let go. That’s exactly what we’ve created here, a peaceful space where your nervous system can finally breathe.
Founded in 2017 by Elizabeth Heitzmann, MA, LPC, a licensed psychotherapist since 2012, a certified integrative mental health practitioner, and she holds a certification in Complimentary Alternative Medicine with over 25 years of experience helping individuals and families heal, Float Doctor was born from her own journey through pain and recovery.
After suffering from nerve damage caused by a surgical complication, Elizabeth discovered float therapy and it changed everything. Floating helped her relieve pain, calm her mind, and feel connected to herself again. The experience was so powerful, so restorative, that she knew others needed access to this same kind of healing.
Float Doctor in Sheboygan, Wisconsin is a safe, serene space dedicated to “weightless, calm, and rejuvenating relaxation” where healing happens without judgment, pressure, or prescriptions. A place where the body can rest, the mind can quiet, and the nervous system can finally reset.

TESTIMONIALS
Don't believe us, believe them
I was looking for something to just help me relax. It completely blew my expectations. After a short period of time adjusting to the silence. I began to focus on my breathing and eventually my mind left the planet. To float in what feels like a weightless void, was the most relaxed that I have been in my adult life. I enjoyed it so much, I made it apart of my 20th anniversary celebration in which we both did the Trifecta and went to dinner relaxed and happy. The owner was very welcoming, knowledgeable of the benefits and eager to make sure we had the best experience possible. This might be my monthly gift to myself.

Recently visited and experienced the sauna & float combo. This really is something you have to experience to understand. It was extremely relaxing and I left feeling like I had been on vacation for a week. As someone else commented, everyone should try this at least once. Everything was explained well and couldn’t have been happier with the interaction with staff and facilities. I will be back and recommending to anyone that will listen.

Very professional and informative. My very first float was an awesome experience. It was relaxation like I've never had before. The feeling of being weightless combined with the warmth of the water puts you in such a dreamlike state. This was my first time here but will definitely not be my last. Highly recommended.

FAQ
Still got questions?
We don’t add any harsh halogens (i.e., chlorine or bromine), bleaches, or hydrogen peroxide to the solution. We have the world’s only NSF 50-certified flotation system approved for commercial use as of 2020.
Other facilities use flotation pods, which are comparable in size to a tanning bed and add chemicals to disinfect the solution.
The certified Float Lab chambers that we provide contain 14” of solution consisting of only water and about 1200 lbs of pharmaceutical-grade Epsom salts. Clean. Pure. Salt and Water. The way a float is meant to be. Our flotation chambers are 4.5’ wide x 8.5’ long x 7’ high.
Yes. Pregnant women probably get even more relief from floating than most people.
The extra weight carried by the mother-to-be can be very stressful due to the forces of gravity.
Floating eliminates the negative effects of gravity, which causes joint pain, inflammation, and stress on the inside organs.
Pregnant women have also reported a reduction of erratic movements of the baby inside the womb. This is due to a phenomenon called the “mirror effect.”
The baby is safe and secure inside the womb, while the mother shares a similar relaxing experience in the float tank.
Yes, the most common names are: sensory deprivation tank, float tank, hydro chamber, and isolation chamber.
We can accommodate parties of 3 at one time, but our tanks are intended to be a private experience for each individual.
If you have longer hair, you may want to bring a comb. And if you wear contacts, please ask us for a case to use while you float. We also provide towels, earplugs, organic conditioner, shampoo, and lotion.
No, you will have complete privacy in the room. A bathing suit is not necessary for the float, but you might want to bring it for the sauna. A suit may take away from the float experience. The less sensation you have on your body, the easier it will be to enter deep relaxation. It is completely up to your comfort level.
Yes, this will rinse off the oils the skin naturally produced and help the skin absorb the magnesium in the Epsom salts. It will also reduce the amount of contaminates entering the tank with you. We respect the tank here to offer the best experiences to our guests. It is also recommended to shower after your float to remove the salt on the body.
Don’t drink coffee or caffeinated beverages before a float as
this may hinder relaxation.
Do not shave or wax on the same day of your float as this can cause any nicks or sensitive dry areas to sting.
Eat a light meal an hour beforehand as it will help to quiet any digestion noises that your body might make. Also, be sure to use the restroom before entering your float room.
It is reported that most people have the following benefits associated with floating; reduced stress, improved sleep, normalized blood pressure, improved mobility, enhanced ability to concentrate, pain relief, strengthened immune system, and reduced symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD.
These benefits can last for several days. It also may take a few float sessions for the person to get the full “reset” to achieve some of the above benefits.
It is truly up to the person floating to focus on “letting go” and relaxing in the tank.
You should not float if you are presently ill, have a large wound that is not healed, incontinent, or have uncontrolled seizures. In these cases, please get a doctor’s recommendation.
Yes, many people safely fall asleep because of the heightened state of relaxation. You can still absorb the Epsom salt benefits while sleeping.
Yes, please follow the same protocol you would for swimming. However, if you are expecting a heavy menstrual cycle,
we ask that you reschedule your float for a better time of the month.
It is very unlikely that you will become claustrophobic in the chamber. It has more space than a bottom bunk bed. There is little to no sensory input whilst floating. Therefore, there is no reference of anything being close. It is very often not a issue with our equipment.
Floating doesn’t require any swimming skills. You’ll actually float effortlessly no matter what shape or size you are.
We recommend removing your contacts before your float, as they could become a distraction if they become dry or you accidentally get salt in your eyes.
Yes, we do not use any harsh chemicals in our filtration system. Therefore, there is no hydrogen peroxide or halogens for your hair product to react with. Please make sure that your color is set before floating to reduce our liners from getting discolored.
Use restroom before your float. Put ear plugs (provided) in ears prior to your shower.
Upon entering the tank, we recommend getting acclimated to being in the chamber.
Make a mental note of where the door is. Open the door to be sure you feel comfortable with finding the door before you unwind and relax.
By orienting to where the door is, you will more likely remember where it is located after your session is complete. Lying in the solution, stretch out your body and find a comfortable position.
Breathe slow and calmly as you try to let go of any thoughts you don’t wish to indulge. Occasionally, you might need to stretch again as you come “in and out” of your meditative state.
Hearing your pulse or having other strange phenomenon (seeing colors, hearing breathing, out of body feelings) may occur as your body learns to disengage from the surroundings.
Chronic pain may seem amplified for a brief moment before that too desensitizes. The mind simply becomes more aware of it for a short period prior to releasing the sensory input.
Walk through anything mentally that you don’t want to think about like it’s a cloud of smoke to release it.
