FAQs

What is being?

being is a wellness space in St Albans offering floatation, infrared sauna and expert massage. You can book one service or combine them into a visit that suits you

Is flotation right for me if I don't like enclosed spaces?

Good news - we don't use pods. being uses an open float pool in your own private room. No lid, no enclosed unit, no closing yourself in. You float in warm Epsom-salt water with full control over the light and sound in the room. If the idea of a pod has put you off flotation in the past, this is the version to try.

What's the difference between an infrared sauna and a normal one?

Lower ambient temperature, deeper-penetrating heat. Most people find it easier to sit in for longer and feel the recovery effect more clearly.

Do I need experience before I book?

No. First-timers are very welcome. The team will talk you through what to expect, answer any questions and make sure you feel comfortable before your session starts.
