Like many Veterans, I struggled to adjust to civilian life after spending 8 years in the United States Army. Despite having great family support, I experienced symptoms of depression, had trouble sleeping and wasn't coping well with stress. Nothing seemed to help and I desperately searched for any relief.

Like most people, I spent a fair amount of time on Facebook when I stumbled across a video of first time floaters. I immediately found a place and booked a float. Although I was intrigued I was also skeptical. I had my first float...and I found my relief. I had never felt this way before. My body didn't ache, my mind was calm and I felt like a million bucks. That night I had the best night's sleep I've ever had!

I wanted to spread the word of this salty goodness so more people could reap the benefits and I decided to open a float center. After a year and half of planning and lots of research Midwest Float was born.

My hope is to help as many people as I can use floating to have a better quality of life!
