I am a new client. I have been a friend of yours on facebook since my husband discovered your company. He was so excited to tell me about you because we have both had trouble sleeping from time to time. Sadly right after he told me about you guys we ended up losing our house and we just didn’t have the money to try it out. We are finally back on our feet and had actually talked about doing a float for our second wedding anniversary which is Valentine’s day. We are getting even less sleep now since we have a 4 month old! I would love to be able to win a free float and then take my husband with me so he can float as well! Consider choosing me as it will end up being more of a buy one get one lol. Thank you, Tamara Lee Shannon

Restful sleep has been a life long demon and it has worsened due the decline in my paren’ts health.  My 86 year old Mother became very ill in September, was hospitalized 3 times for Congenital Heart Failure, and passed away on January 6, 2011.  We never thought she would go before my Father.  I am now the primary caretaker for my Father who has altzheimers, cancer, subdural hematoma’s and a multitude of maladies common in 91 year olds.  Even my sweet 13 year old Italian Greyhound is sick with the same disease as Mother….  My tired heart feels ready to explode.

In the past month I have buried my Mother who was also my best friend, hit the first two “memory milestones” of her birthday, and the one month anniversary of her passing.  I’m working feverishly to clean her house, organize her paperwork, and list her house.  Taxes are around the corner, and we can’t tell Dad of her death.  This only makes sleep and rest more elusive. 

Her death ended her suffering and gave her rest which was a blessing, but no one has told my heart that….My biggest dream right now is a good night’s sleep.  Even a nap!!

If this works, I may take up residence in one of your True Rest Float spas!
Thank you,

Susan Webster

I would love to win a free float because I have been wanting to try a sensory deprivation tank for so long! I stumbled upon True Rest and was so excited to see this spa in Arizona. I have researched the benefits and the experinces some people have with meditation and lucid dreaming is mind blowing! As a massage therapist, I have been discovering the amazing processes of muscular release and emotional release. I can only imagine the feeling of being weightless! I do have some chronic pain in my neck and low back. Chirpopractics and massage help, but I tend to hold in a lot of stress and it has never seemed to leave me fully. I just want to unwind so bad! I know there are others in pain that could benefit as well, more pain than I am in. Recently I have been feeling on the verge of breaking down from the stress of trying to be independent, let alone successful. I have a passion to serve, and I love to do bodywork, but I have a hard time managing my stress. It gets to the point that my mind is so overactive I can’t meditate, and my muscles hurt so I can’t relax. I think the float tanks are the perfect solution to help kickstart what I already know is inside of me, help me remember. Regardless if I win this or not, I will visit your spa someday and continue to promote the tanks! Thank you for bringing something so cool and revolutionary to the mainstream public!

I have also been a Facebook fan of True Rest since you started on FB, it looked so interesting and relaxing I have always wanted to try it. I have had back problems for years, but just learned to deal with it. I don’t make very much money and my whole life I’ve never chose to spoil myself over necessary bills to pay so therefore I haven’t been to your facility. I have been stressed out the past few months over my money situation or lack there of. So I absolutely would love a chance to win a free float to actually make me feel like I’m doing something for myself. I don’t want to sound like a charity case because by all means I’m not and there are a lot more deserving people out there I would just love a chance to try True Rest float experience.

As much as I would like to have a free float, I actually want to nominate my boyfriend, Ryan Luikens [also a client] because he’s been working so hard on his current semester of school at ASU and really deserves a relaxing sesh in the float tank! His schedule is packed and he barely has time for himself, so this would be a perfect way for him to unwind a little. Thanks!

My husband has had a rough couple of years.  He has struggled with a sleeping disorder for the majority of his life, and he was misdiagnosed for the last five years as having sleep apnea.  He is ALWAYS tired, which filters into every facet of his life, from his productivity at work to his motivation to do projects at home.  His lack of sleep also affects his immune system, so he gets sick fairly easily and stays sick longer than most people.  I have watched him lose more and more sleep lately, and I am worried for him.  Even with all of the sleep lost to him, he is so good natured and rarely gets unhinged.  I know if I were lacking even a tenth of my normal sleep, I am cranky and intolerable…he is gentle and loving and rarely upset or cranky.  Luckily, he was given a new diagnosis of narcolepsy, which makes total sense and is on the slow road to treatment for it.  Besides the yuckiness of his sleep disorder, he also dealt with Valley Fever last year, which depleted him even more than he already was, as well as a back injury that left him in pain for several weeks.  I am not sure if a float will help him, but I would love to give him a chance to try it and see if he can get some good rest, if only for an hour.  The sweet thing is that he gave me a Float for Christmas, which I promptly redeemed and enjoyed!  I would like to return the gift to him.

The float experience I had before with True Rest was one of the most relaxing and mind soothing experiences I have ever had.  I’m looking forward to my next cosmic escape.

I am an existing customer of True Rest Float Center !
I have only had the opportunity to experience True Rest once, but I loved it sooooo much
that I am constantly talking about it, especially with my friends while sipping on my morning
latte at Starbucks.

My Birthday is 2-12 (the day of the drawing). I have been hinting to my friends to pitch in
on a float session for my b-day, but it would certainly be a pleasure to WIN a FREE FLOAT !!

I am a current customer of True Rest and love the outcome with every visit. I unfortunately cannot afford to come in often enough. I have pain from previous injuries and deal with a lot of work inflicted stress and wish I could float more often.
Actually, I don’t think that I should win a free float, I feel a good friend of mine, John,  should. He tried it for the first time last week and enjoyed the experience but wasn’t sure if it would help the pain issues he deals with. Not only does he deal with sleep apnea but does manual labor every day. With pain medications, they can only do so much, and sleep aids, they can leave him dependent and not fully rested every day, making each day even harder.
I have my own ailments but I feel he has more justification for a need to float more than I do as the concept of floating and self healing is still very new to him.
I’m hoping in the future to find locations in Utah. My Father has Parkinson’s and has gone through much debilitating health issues in the last year. Unfortunately travel is not easy for him but I’ve been able to relay information that I go through to his Dr.‘s who seem interested in the concept for him and other patients. I’m hoping to be able to bring him to True Rest in the next 4 months upon him feeling better to travel. My hope is to see if this will be something for him to utilize to help him get the neurological relaxation and muscle release he needs.
Each experience I’ve gone through is different but just as beneficial as the last and hopefully I can float on a more consistent basis.

Hi:  I’ve heard nothing but good things regarding the free float, and was wondering if it’s available in wv. I’m having a difficult time getting my medication being I’m new here, and I suffer from a few medical conditions such as asthma, insomnia, restless leg syndrome, high blood pressure, and anxiety. I’m positive the free float would help me with probably all of my conditions however I have not found work yet, so I have no income. Maybe I’ll get lucky and win, and if I did win I’d be sure to return again, and again, and I would spread the word on truefloat.. Thanks Ms.Colleen Paxton…

I am a happily returning client of True Rest floats.  I believe my next visit will be #6.  My very first visit I was lucky enough to experience the lucid dreams.  I felt as if my conscience was fighting my sub-conscience for control over my brain and dreams, a very unique and enjoyable experience.  My following floats have been a tremendous journey, as I have reached the ability to choose what I want to dream and to control it the entire way through my sleepytime float.  Before my floats, I am sure to work out extra hard, and drink plenty of water to ensure I am good and tired to come into my float.  I am now able to fall asleep within five minutes of float and off to my dream world.  As I begin to enter the last moments of my float, I am refreshed, calm, with a balance of energy I find difficult to describe.  I awake to soft, gentle music that softly brings me back to reality.  I have told many friends of True Rest with hopes that everyone I care for can treat themselves to this relaxing, health alternative.  I do not have one negative item to say in regards to my floats, or any of the individuals who work at the facility.  As I sit in the waiting room in anticipation of my upcoming floats, I love to talk to newbies who have never floated to hopefully assist them to learn to relax and enjoy their first experience in hopes of them to be return customers.  I only wish I could have learned of True Rest long before.  I can only consider myself lucky and able to partake in the delightful floats that True Rest offers.

I wanted to enter this contest for my wife Angela, we are both existing customers having tried the float experience with you once before.  However, Angela didn’t have the greatest experience in her initial float.  Being nervous she later told me she tended to flop around inside the chamber while struggling to keep herself afloat.  Needless to say she loved the idea and concept but I know she was unable to grasp the full experience.  Angela has been struggling lately with work and school, both being full time she hardly has any time to just relax and take a break from the day to day grind she is dealing with in trying to make our family’s life have a chance at a better future.  Aside from work and school, we have a 17 month old daughter Elora who can be quite a handful, leaving Angela virtually no downtime when she gets home late at night from school.  I know a float would alleviate some of the stress she has bottled up inside.  Giving her a chance to try the float a second time, I know she would feel more comfortable and focus more on relaxing and letting her mind and body float away on the serene waters from TrueFloat.

I would be a new member, I have been wanting to try a float for a long while not but have yet to take the plunge. I’m partially afraid that I may like it so much I can not stop smile I have been having a lot of stress related to my work in the last year and I have found no good methods for good relaxation and sleep is just not really cutting it for me. This may be a better option and what better way to find out than to try it for free. Thank you for the opportunity to try. Cheers, Shawn

I don’t really like to go into the full details of my own personal “hard times”, I mean, we’ve all had hard times it’s a part of life. I guess they are the things that define us as people, how we get through them, how they change us or improve us, make us stronger or weaker. I have had to deal with some very hard times. I lost my brother, who was truly my best friend, to a very, very long battle with cirrhosis of the liver and alcoholism. I held his hand while he left this earth. I found my father in the nick of time after a suicide attempt once when he lost his job and then again after he felt he couldn’t find his place in this world this past October. I lost my house and I lost my brother’s house. I lived through all these hard times while trying to go to college, to be the first in my family to get a degree. I was in and out of school, dropping classes and complete semesters just to trying to attend to these obstacles in my life. I kept going, saying, as soon as I was done with school, I would deal with it all. I finally graduated from ASU this past December. Don’t get me wrong, I may have more anxieties, stresses and fears than I did in my earlier years, but I don’t think I have had it any worse than anyone else; these were just the battles I had to make it through in my own life. I am happy today, I am proud that despite everything, I was able to accomplish the things that some people in my situation may have just given up on, chalked it up to something that just wasn’t supposed to be. I may not have been a straight A student, but I did it.

You ask why I think I deserve a free float. It’s not that I think I deserve it above anyone else, surely these days we all deserve one. I had the pleasure of being able to afford one float at your spa through groupon and it was the first time, in a long time, I felt relief, it was the first time I remember in such a long time sleeping (after I got home) so care free. I made a promise to myself that I after I was done with school, I would take care of me. It would just be nice to have a little piece of that feeling again, until I can afford to float whenever I need it.

The closest experience I can imagine when told of its benefits by an existing float customer easily takes my mind many miles from my desert home to a place I love so dearly by the water.  The idea of being weightless, with carefree relaxation to allow the mind, body, and spirit to release the stresses of life has my instant attention.  But determination to succeed in an Arizona real estate career provides me neither the luxury of a vacation to the softest sands and warmest waters of the Pacific nor the excess income currently to indulge in a float that surely would snag me with Her comfort.  Not a day goes by without the thought of some, however short-lived, relief from the pressures that are enough to drown the average.  Being buoyant in these swirling waters is not easily done, as I can attest, and possible only using all the strength my form can hold to grip the vest that seems as determined to escape and I to survive.  Perhaps only those who know troubled waters can appreciate the peace and stillness a float can offer.  I feel those rough waters, and know I would find safety in an hour of still ones.

I am an existing customer technically, I have only been to the spa once, but it was a fantastic experience. I have lived with severe pain in my back & neck for over 12 years.  I have multiple herniated disk’s & seem to carry all my stress & anxiety in my neck & shoulders.  Once I eventually trusted in the pod & let go completely with my neck muscles it awoke 45 minutes later feeling like a new women.  I could not ever remember feeling so pain free in my life.  I currently am a senior work comp analyst & have a case load of a 180 people off work that I am supposed to somehow keep track off.  Every person seems to think their case is the only one I have to work on & should be at their beck & call.  That combined with management & sudden departure of multiple coworkers has left me in a constant state of stress & anxiety.  I am truly grateful to be working though as the economy is & feel God has blessed me in many ways.  I think the hardest thing now is that my husband just left me, he went to live some friends & just left.  I have struggled for years, too many to count, with the battlefield in my mind & just recently learned I have Boderline Personality Disorder.  I have made great strides in the past couple months to learn about this, understand it & try to overcome it to bring peace to my home, but it appears it was not quick enough for my husband.  So I continue this struggle on my own, alone. My faith is in God that he is holding me & will continue to forever.  I guess the short answer to why I would love the opportunity to float again is that if I could for however brief a time rid my body if this constant pain I could draw some strength to continue this fight to overcome & to get my husband back.  Thank you for your consideration, floating is a true gift to whomever gets chosen to receive this generosity.

I am an existing client who has been to your location once and brought my sister with me so we could try it together which was a really great birthday present for her (or really us!)

I deserve a free float because I have had tremendous stress at work lately. I am responsible for a project that is running 5 weeks behind schedule which has had some really bad luck for my team. One person is getting a divorce, one was diagnosed with cancer (doubling my workload), one was diagnosed with a spinal condition and hasn’t been able to work for the past 2 weeks, two members of the team I discovered were totally incompetent and haven’t actually been working for the past 4 months. I have been working 16-hour days for the past 2 weeks to recover the schedule and plan another critical project currently behind in addition to about 8 other smaller projects in process. I had one contractor quit this week due to health issues and one employee quit (I am still working on hiring a replacement for another employee who quit in January). I helped another team with a system outage this week for a system I am not responsible for which added another 8 hours to my day. Long story short, it’s been a stressful week. My management team has not responded to my hints of instead of taking me to lunch (limited time in the day to eat!), to instead buy me a bottle of vodka and a massage, so maybe I’ll get some assistance through this channel smile Help me please!

Hi True Rest and Josh Crick, I’m a new customer.  I haven’t been able to do a float yet but I’ve had it on my Wish list for a long time.  I’m a chronic insomniac and I work for a non-profit, so I’m pretty busy and I don’t make a lot of money.  I volunteer for my own non-profit, and for the local AZ Animal Welfare League, helping out at special events like their annual Walk fundraisers, black tie events, golf events, etc.  I’m a cancer survivor so volunteering is how I “Pay it Forward”.  I’m a total Type A personality so I have a difficult time relaxing.  Probably part of my insomnia issue.  I’d love to finally get in and try a float, and see if it’s everything I’ve heard it is.  I could use some relaxation.

I would like a free float because I have been laid off twice within the past 1 year and am currently jobless and simply can not afford to pay for a float with all my other fixed expenses. I came in for a float a few weeks ago with a groupon deal and have been able to handle my stress significantly better since, and would love another float to help get rid of stress of not having a job and allowing me to focus!

Thanks!

The stress levels in my life are quite high.  My five year old son is a cancer survivor.  Being diagnosed at age 4 with stage four lymphoma was quite a shock.  The past year and a half was filled with so much fear, stress, gratitude and blessings. My son is currently cancer free, thank heavens!  Dealing with the after effects of all of the stress is quite difficult. I have been to TRUE REST once and would look forward to spending a very peaceful hour in a pod while enjoying the benefits of the float as well.
