My first experience in a deprivation tank

We made the appointment that morning.

I went with my sister-in-law who has been staying with us for a few weeks in transition from living overseas for several years.

The first-time experience fee was $69 — $20 off the regular price. It was a quiet weekday afternoon and all our kids were at a nearby day camp, so we were looking for a way to decompress. We thought we’d give it a shot.
