WHY DON’T YOU

- STORIES BY STEVE FISHER

Floatation therapy is a unique way to remove all the stresses from your mind and body, and enjoy a peaceful and relaxed state of tranquilit­y. Whistler’s West Coast Float offers you a chance to shut out the world and let your mind wander with their choice of a personal floatation pod, an open- topped ( and handicappe­d accessible) tub, or their float cabin with a large enough tub for couples to float together. A typical float session is 90 minutes long, and while it sounds lengthy most people emerge surprised at how quickly it passed. Founder Bob Van Engelsdorp says customers are not instructed on how to float, as different people have different reasons to come. Some are there for injury relief, some to blow off stress, and others are curious to see what their imaginatio­n will create with no outside influences. He says the most interestin­g thing for him is hearing about what people experience­d during their float. If you’re looking for some rest and relaxation, West Coast Float is located at # 7- 4433 Sundial Place in Whistler Village. For more informatio­n, visit westcoastf­loat. com. in Whistler Village.
