Tsurumaki Onsen (Hadano No. 12)
Analysis VerifiedTsurumaki Onsen's non-volcanic waters, first utilized for bathing in 1889 after well water proved undrinkable, emerge from deep within the Tanzawa Mountains. This spring is a national rarity, exceptionally rich in calcium, gently enveloping the skin. Its restorative warmth penetrates the body's core, fostering deep relaxation and a lasting gentle glow post-bath. Following its history as 'Tokyo's inner parlor,' bustling with therapeutic bathers after the Odakyu Line opened in the early Showa era, it remains ideal for tranquil self-care away from urban clamor.
The bar length shows how abundant each component is compared to thresholds that make it "distinctive" (therapeutic spring standards, beauty spring criteria, etc.).
Scores are calculated from mineral analysis data based on the Mineral Spring Analysis Guidelines (Ministry of Environment, Japan). They are unrelated to facility atmosphere or service quality.
▸Note
The temperature, pH and component values shown here are based on the hot spring analysis (source). Actual values in the bath may differ depending on heating, dilution, recycling and filtration. Please check current usage status at the facility.
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.
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.
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.
