Transform Your Life Like Tom Did with Still Life Massage and Float

 

Hey there, float enthusiasts and wellness seekers! We've got a story that'll make you a believer in the transformative power of floating. We recently received a heartfelt testimonial from Tom McCarthy, a long-time client, and we couldn't wait to share his journey with you.

Meet Tom, The Serial Floater

Tom first floated into our lives seeking relief from joint aches and muscle pains. Diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in his mid-20s, Tom tried ignoring his condition for years. However, it became impossible to neglect when a terrifying episode jolted him awake—passing out behind the wheel!

The Wake-up Call

That near-miss was a game-changer for Tom. He realized that the build-up of stress, anxiety, and sleep deprivation, all fueled by chronic pain, was no longer sustainable. He had to make a change, and he did.

Finding an Oasis in Bellingham

After moving to Bellingham in 2015, Tom stumbled upon floating and the Still Life Massage and Float center. What started as an "escape" evolved into a vital part of his self-care routine. A day of walking, sauna, and floating? That's his ideal recipe for a refreshed and reinvigorated life.

Why Still Life Massage and Float?

Tom can't say enough about our compassionate staff and tranquil environment. He appreciates our team's dedication to creating an oasis where clients can simply "float away" their physical and emotional discomfort.

Tom's Pro Tip

Tom believes that every appointment is an opportunity to take proactive responsibility for his well-being. Even on darker days, he knows that he just needs to show up, let go, and float.

Final Words from Tom

"In my experience over the past 5 years, every appointment is an opportunity for me to shift the dynamic, to step away for a short time and to express gratitude for my life by proactively taking responsibility to care for my body, to feed my soul… to relax and breathe."
