A Transformative Wellness Experience - Lumen Optimal is a True GiftI first visited Lumen Optimal Wellness Spa in October 2024, while I was still living in Michigan. Even then, I knew it was something special. Now that I've moved to Albuquerque, Lumen has become one of the most quintessential, beneficial, and grounding parts of my transition. It's not just a wellness spa--it's a place of deep restoration and transformation that has genuinely supported my journey.In fact, I was so impressed by the impact of their therapies that I enrolled in their Unlimited New Year's Plan, and I can't say enough good things about it. Every visit is an opportunity to recharge, heal, and reconnect with myself in a way that few places can offer.Floating: A Practice I Can't Live WithoutI've been floating for years, but Lumen's approach takes it to another level. The carefully curated environment, combined with the expertise of the staff, makes every session deeply immersive and rejuvenating. It's the ultimate reset for my mind and body.Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: A Game-Changer for My Circulation & Mental ClarityI have Reynolds syndrome, and the hyperbaric oxygen chamber has been an absolute lifesaver for my circulation. Beyond that, it has significantly improved my cognitive clarity, allowing me to feel sharper and more present. It's one of the most powerful therapies I've experienced. I love to journal or reed while I'm in the treatment - it's such a breath of fresh air to rejuvenate my body!NeurOptimal Therapy: A Subtle Yet Profound ShiftLumen also introduced me to NeurOptimal therapy, which gently rewired my brain, helping me recognize and correct dissociation patterns I wasn't even fully aware of. The ability to tap into my consciousness and create lasting shifts in my mental state has been phenomenal.Infrared Sauna: My Weekly RechargeEvery Sunday, I indulge in an infrared sauna session, and it has become one of my favorite rituals. It's the perfect way to reset, detox, and deeply relax before the week ahead.A Healing Space with an Incredible TeamFrom my very first visit, the staff at Lumen have been beyond welcoming, knowledgeable, and dedicated to creating a space of true healing. Whether it's your first time exploring wellness therapies or you've been on this path for years, they make sure every session is tailored to your needs.Lumen has truly enhanced my quality of life, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a space of healing, renewal, and self-discovery. Thank you, Lumen Optimal Wellness, for being such a transformative part of my journey!

I had my first massage here this beautiful Sunday morning with Lisa Matteson. She was impressive with her skeletal muscular knowledge; she immediately identified my issue and went to town! She was able to get me to relax enough so that she could get to the knots in my back that have been causing extreme radiating pain down my right arm. With my Eurasian upbringing I was massaged from birth on, I'm a self proclaimed expert in the field. I do not waste time on massage therapists who don't have the skill-set required to render a positive outcome. The facility is clean and comfortably decorated, people are friendly and professional, plus they offer many different services. Do not hesitate to book an appointment, you won't regret it. I've already booked for next Saturday.

During an unexpected trip that I had to take to New Mexico I found this gem of a place. This wellness center is equipped with several different services from massages to strength training. I chose to do the personal sauna which was an amazing experience. You can detox in your own space as well as enjoy your own music with the Bluetooth compatibility equipment inside of the sauna. I would highly recommend the space.

I am 9 months pregnant and tried the flotation therapy for the first time. It was heavenly. I've always had trouble with back and hip pain, but now with pregnancy my discomfort is exacerbated. The float cabin was exactly what I needed for a reprieve/adjustment. The entire experience was so relaxing. Everything was spotless, I never felt rushed, you have a personal shower, and the floating space is big enough to move around in and stretch if you feel up to it. On top of it, the woman who checked me in and out is a doula so I felt reassured about how helpful the floating would be as she encouraged me to try stretching and different positions while I floated. I took the opportunity to enjoy an awesome nap and to stretch. Based on my experience, I think you could do either or both and feel very satisfied. I am definitely doing this again before baby arrives (if there's time) and postpartum. I wish I had discovered this therapy earlier in pregnancy. The only warning- reality is a little harsh as you pull yourself up from floating.

I have been to float here several times. I can say with clarity that this is the best place in town to float, hands down. The staff is amazing, always. The realization that I am about to embark on this 60 min float journey is incredible. I love the rest and relaxation that my mind and body need and recieve from LUMEN. The float in my opinion is the best thing you can do for your mind. It allows you to be still and just "zone out" without any stimulation. I recommend LUMEN at anyone and everyone. Checkout their website as they offer many mind and body activities. Hope my photos help you decide to visit.

So this is my third visit and it definitely won't be my last. First time was just for a massage - heaven. Today I combined a massage and a float - just what my body needed. But I really want to talk about the floating, since this is probably what's the most intriguing to most people. Ok. First and foremost this is a pretty big float cabin, vs a little pod, which helped. I'm afraid of water, (can't swim) a little claustrophobic, and absolutely afraid of the dark. But I've read about all of the benefits and felt like I've been on sensory/emotional overload. I needed a break. The first 15 minutes were rough. The lovely lady helping me gave me the hint to count backward from 100 with every breath. Worked like a charm as I was genuinely afraid of being inside my own head for an hour. If I can do it...Water was only 11 inches deep and there is so much Epsom salt you couldn't sink if you tried. The darkness wigged me out a bit. Just kept my eyes closed until like the last 5 minutes. It was like floating in warm outer space but in pitch blackness. No phones ringing, no alarms buzzing, no people, no stress, no gravity. Plus my muscles feel completely relaxed from the magnesium overdose. Couldn't be more relaxed. This has got to be the closest to feeling like you're still in the womb you can get as an adult. Or maybe as close to being an astronaut. Either way, super awesome experience. I did the mid-package today with the massage and the float. Second time floating was much easier to get into "the zone." Next time I want to do the package that includes the neuro brain therapy and the FAR Sauna. They do so many biohacking type things (I'm a nurse and I'm intrigued" that I want to experience MORE!

I was telling a friend about this place the other day, she was like, "Just go to California and get in the ocean. You'll float in there, too."No, you don't get it, Cindy. It isn't the same thing. If I just kick back on the Pacific, I'm thinking my first concern would be sharks, then sunburn, water splashing in my eyes, and the inevitable drift out to sea. Float spas are supposed to be therapeutic and this one, LUMEN, is kinda like seeing a good shrink.Full disclosure: I got a great introductory discount on an hour float here. Why am I jonesing to return? As I told the owner, I've spent most of my life dealing with mild scoliosis, nothing terrible, just a curvature that impacts my lower back. The float spas at LUMEN are exceptionally roomy, and within about 30 minutes, my body was in the best alignment in years. I could hear them, the spinal pops and clicks, that felt SO good.+ Floats are private, one hour sessions+ Rooms are secure and comfortable, no need to bring a swimsuit+ After getting comfortable, the music stops, lights go out (you can keep the lights on, if you really want to), and you're free to crash or just listen to the voices in your head+ To get comfortable, I suggest utilizing the floating "halo" for additional head supportWithout wasting much more of your time, LUMEN ain't no one-trick pony. Offering a workout apparatus that's straight outta Blade Runner, brain training, and mind/body/holistic options based on good ol' science and biology, I'd trust this place to cure my pain in front of, quite honestly, any western or eastern medicine. This place is basically about modern medicine, and it's wonderful.

I had 7 Emsella chair treatments for urinary stress incontinence. It did not work; it actually made things worse. It cost me $1800, please don't waist your money. The staff is very nice, but not very knowledgeable about UCI.
