Virginia’s Warrenton Wellness facility is offering guests a sensory deprivation experience provided by Blu Room, to give them a calming and healing experience for guests as they continue to live through the pandemic.

The Blu Room is a patented technology that shields users from the outside world and wraps users in an atmosphere of soft blue and ultraviolet (UVB) light so the mind is free to relax.

The Blu Room is designed for anyone who wants to step out of the daily routine including young adults, adults, and seniors.

Sessions consist of 20 minutes of deep relaxation, music and vibrations inside a futuristic octagon bathed in blue and UVB light.

Proposed benefits include deepened focus, a faster healing process, greater self-awareness, pain relief, alleviating stress and anxiety, as well as overall improved health.

Sarah Shores, owner of Warrenton Wellness, launched the facility in August 2020 and is celebrating its effectiveness and popularity on its one-year anniversary.

“I knew this would be a stressful time and people needed a calming and healing experience – a safe one too. Plus, ultraviolet light and viruses don’t get along,” she said.

There are 43 operational Blu Room locations across the globe with nine additional locations under construction.

Countries with Blu Room services include Argentina, Australia, Austria, Canada, Colombia, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan and the US.
