BATHING TIPS
AI Generated

The source exceeds 55°C and the top layer heats up quickly, so stir the bath and check the temperature first. Being mild and low-irritant, it suits a long, lukewarm soak. Hydrate afterwards.

EFFECT STORY
AI Generated

With pH 8.45 and 93 mg/kg of metasilicic acid, this mildly alkaline water may soften the skin for a silky skin feel. As a gentle simple spring, it is easy on the body, and a long lukewarm soak invites deep relaxation by the quiet lakeside.

CAUTIONS
AI Generated

The source is very hot, so beware of the spout and the top layer. Avoid dizziness from long soaks, stay hydrated, and skip bathing when unwell or after drinking.
