Tsurumaki Onsen (Hadano No. 12)

Analysis Verified
鶴巻温泉 (秦野 第12号)
The Calcium-Rich Blessing of Tanzawa

Tsurumaki Onsen's history began in 1889 when local well water, unsuitable for drinking or irrigation, was repurposed for bathing. [8] Gushing from deep within the Tanzawa Mountains, this source is classified as a non-volcanic spring and is known nationwide for its rare, calcium-rich composition. [14] Following the opening of the Odakyu Line in the early Showa era, it rapidly developed as an accessible retreat from Tokyo, attracting numerous visitors for therapeutic stays. [14, 22]

BATHING TIPS
AI Generated

This weakly alkaline chloride spring helps prevent post-bath chills as salt adheres to the skin, retaining warmth. For lasting moisture, avoid rinsing off after your bath. Refrain from prolonged soaking and remember to stay hydrated.

EFFECT STORY
AI Generated

With a pH of 7.7, this spring contains 160.5 mg/kg of calcium ions and 539.0 mg/kg of chloride ions. A "salt veil" envelops the body, preventing chills, making it ideal for those with poor circulation. It's also beneficial for cuts and dry skin, offering relief on days your skin needs extra care.

CAUTIONS
AI Generated

Avoid bathing during active phases of illness or if you have severe heart or kidney disease. Bathing after consuming alcohol is dangerous and should be avoided. Remember to hydrate before and after your bath.
