Bring Us Your Tired, Worn Out Anglers, and Turkey Hunters

If you happen to be an angler that is plum worm out reeling in those monster stripers, or any of the multitude of sport fish that will test the limits of your fitness, I might have a solution for you! Lets face it, a day of long retrieves can reality check the best of us crusty ol’ anglers. We know all to well what it is like for us cantankerous turkey hunters to carry out those monster gobblers miles back in from the truck. Guilty as charged…

During the 2024 New York Outdoor Writers Association Conference in Oswego, New York this past weekend, we were introduced to a new local business- Aqua Spa Float Center & Wellness Boutique. With an invite to try a few of their wellness services, I would visit along with my wife, Lee. We scheduled an afternoon visit after several days of outings during the conference. We were promptly greeted when we arrived and our first impression of a clean, warm and inviting facility was in keeping with what was described to us from Oswego County Tourism staff we met with at our meet and greet on Thursday evening.

The wellness and float offerings are robust and the customer can choose from recommended times for each. As expected they offer a variety of packaged offerings. The services offered include:

Float Therapy / Cryotherapy / Infrared Sauna / Salt Therapy / Oxygen Bar / OHCO M.8 Massage Chair

IV Nutrient Therapy / PBM Therapy / Aesthetics Services

The links embedded in each category of services will take you to a full description of each offering. The prices are affordable, and they have certified medical staff for treatments that you would expect certified professionals.

We both chose the massage chair and oxygen bar as an introduction to their services. The massage was fantastic, not just a simple vibrating chair. Very robust massage, firm enough to be very effective in easing those sore muscles from hauling in those big lakers. Your back and legs will thank you for it. You can also add heat to further enhance the therapeutic value. We did a 16 minute session and would be keen on longer sessions in future visits. The Oxygen Bar is a great experience as you can choose from the various infused scents and you will notice an immediate difference in relaxation, calming and mood. If we had more time the float tank is another offering we would have tried. We will try this in a future visit.

The staff is very friendly, attentive and professional. This adds to the inviting atmosphere, and it is the opinion of this ol’ crusty turkey hunter/fisherman that it is worthy of your time to pay a visit and sample what you might find to your liking and to be most beneficial to rejuvenate from a great day on the water or in your favored turkey woods. For those of you that regularly work out, you would definitely benefit from services offered here. You can learn more at: https://aquaspafloatcenter.com/

You can easily spend a half day or more with combined therapies and with a little planning, create a fantastic long weekend of fishing, of relaxing therapies, and return from a mini vacation rejuvenated and and with memories of great times on the water. Highly recommended!
