BATHING TIPS
AI Generated

This 49.0°C high-temperature chloride spring is known as a "warming bath" that prevents post-bath chills. A salt veil forms on the skin, retaining heat. Avoid long soaks; start with short dips to acclimate. A light rinse or a full shower afterward is recommended for sensitive skin.

EFFECT STORY
AI Generated

With high concentrations of sodium (2240 mg/kg) and chloride (4025 mg/kg), this is a classic "warming spring." The salt adheres to the skin, preventing sweat from evaporating and warming you from the core. At 49.0°C, it's especially recommended for those with poor circulation or to warm up after a cold day of winter activities.

CAUTIONS

Bathing is contraindicated during active illness, extreme physical weakness, or for those with severe heart or kidney disease. Avoid bathing immediately after meals or after consuming alcohol.
