For Manchester & South Manchester

A calmer alternative to the city, minutes from Manchester

If you live or work in Manchester and want to properly switch off, you don't have to head into a busy, impersonal city-centre venue. Many of our guests travel out to Wilmslow precisely because it feels like a genuine escape — a quiet, boutique studio where float therapy, contrast therapy and massage sit under one roof.

Floating in our sensory deprivation tank (float pod) suspends you in warm water saturated with Epsom salt, removing light, sound and the constant pull of the city for 60 minutes. It's one of the most effective resets available for stress, sleep and tired muscles — and it's closer than most Manchester residents realise.
