Sukhino Float Center and Salt Cave Looking to relieve pain, reduce stress, overcome anxiety and depression, find deep breath? Our unexpected oasis in New Albany will help you feel your best!

Born out of a desire to bring peace of mind and relief in the body, Sukhino Float Center and Salt Cave is Southern Indiana's first float center AND first salt cave! We offer floatation therapy and halotherapy, both of which are centered around the therapeutic properties of salt, in its various forms. Float therapy involves stepping into our spacious float rooms and lying back into 10 inches of skin-temperature water that's mixed with over 1000 pounds of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate, MgSO4). You'll float effortlessly for up to 75 or 90 minutes, enjoying silence or music, colorful lights or pure darkness. Not only is floating great for relieving aches and pains in the body, it's a blissful break for your brain. To experience the benefits of halotherapy, we invite you to spend 45 minutes in our playful, peaceful salt cave. Breathe in the salty air while you rest in a treehouse cave environment like you've never seen. You'll gaze at the glowing Himalayan salt tile art wall, feel the texture of loose Himalayan salt on the floor, and breath deeply as the pharmaceutical grade salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) soothes your respiratory system. In Sanskrit, "Sukhino" means "centered in happiness and joy, free from suffering". We hope you'll join us to create that for yourself.

Every day is a good day to be thankful for the planet we call home.
Filled with many wonders and a multitude of resources, Earth is incredibly important and vital to all living beings. One of the many gifts Earth provides (and one of our favorites) is salt!

The pharmaceutical-grade sodium chloride we use in our halogenerator in the salt cave is found in seawater and in underground rock formations. From there, it's filtered and cleansed to the highest quality.

Halotherapy is an excellent way to add more of this fantastic compound into your life. Book a session today and get salty with us!

Dear Stressbusters,

When the world feels heavy and hard, it's important to pause and do something that gives you simple joy. Even if you can't run away and hop on a cruise ship, you can run away to the forest, your front yard, your favorite park, or - of course - Sukhino.

Love,
Float Mom

SLEEP. We love it. Truly. And it's so important to give yourself time for your body to rest, heal, and recover. If you suffer from chronic inflammation, it can negatively affect your sleep quality and result in less time spent in REM sleep, which is the deep sleep your body craves.

Do you have a nighttime sleep routine? Here are some things to consider:
šŸ˜“ go to bed around the same time each night
šŸ˜“ avoid screens and blue light in the evening
šŸ˜“ create time to wind-down or journal before bed
šŸ˜“ address underlying stress or mental health concerns

When you don't sleep well, you don't feel well. If you need to catch up on some sleep, you might need a float!

We provide the space you need to unravel your thoughts, unclench your jaw, lower your shoulders, and overall feel better. Come in for a float or spend some time relaxing in our beautiful salt cave (try adding the infrared mat, too!)

Our Story

Some say weā€™re an odd couple. I (Kim) am a former leader in the corporate marketing and training world, yoga/meditation/mindfulness teacher, and Graham is a musician. I prefer the quiet world behind the scenes, and he loves the spotlight. I float to meditate and relieve anxiety, and he floats to relax the body. And weā€™re both honored and elated to bring this space to our community.

We never really dreamed of opening a business together, but the universe unfolded that path for us, and we joyfully accepted. (We actually met as co-workers at a restaurant that was known for itā€™s ā€œsugar waterā€ used to sweeten the tea, so itā€™s funny that we dedicate ourselves to a business thatā€™s known for itā€™s salt water now!)

I heard about floating many years ago and became infatuated with it. At the time, we didnā€™t have any centers near us, but before I had even set foot in a float tank, I knew we would open a float center one day. Iā€™d been teaching yoga and meditation for a few years, and Iā€™d seen firsthand the transformation that occurs when people are provided the space to connect body, breath, and mind. Floating just seemed like a natural fit with my love for yoga and seeking release and relief from lifeā€™s stresses.

I grew up in a family where itā€™s a badge of honor to be overworked, exhausted, and often unfulfilled. Iā€™ve watched almost every single family member battle chronic illnesses, disease, and injuries, and I knew I wanted to try something a bit different. I couldnā€™t escape that genetic work ethic, but Iā€™ve channeled my hard work into serving others wherever I can. After learning about and seeing the sense of relief from those who have chronic pain, I was even more determined than ever to make the vision of providing float therapy a reality, but I let it simmer quietly in my head for about a year.
