19-go-sen
Analysis UnverifiedGushing forth naturally amidst the lush nature of Noboribetsu, Source No. 19 shares its history with the region's volcanic activity. It uniquely combines the properties of a chloride and a bicarbonate spring, offering a complex character as if concentrating the earth's nutrients. As you soak, a veil of salt gently envelops your body, retaining warmth long after you leave the bath. Simultaneously, it helps to soften the skin, leaving it feeling smooth. This onsen is for the discerning individual seeking to heal daily fatigue and restore mind-body balance.
The bar length shows how abundant each component is compared to thresholds that make it "distinctive" (therapeutic spring standards, beauty spring criteria, etc.).
Undissociated boric acid with antibacterial action that keeps the skin surface clean.
A natural moisturizer also used in skincare lotions. Forms a thin veil on the skin to reduce moisture loss after bathing.
Transdermal absorption gently supports skin hydration and muscle relaxation.
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.
As the spring is hot at 56.4°C, acclimate your body by splashing your limbs with the water before entering. To maximize the warming effect of the chloride and the cleansing effect of the bicarbonate, it's best not to rinse off after bathing; simply pat your skin dry with a towel.
The abundant chloride ions (712.6 mg/kg) form a thin veil on the skin, which is traditionally associated with restorative warmth that prevents post-bath chills. Additionally, the bicarbonate ions (383.3 mg/kg) help to soften the skin, promoting a silky skin feel. This spring is recommended for those concerned with poor circulation or dry skin, and for anyone seeking deep relaxation from daily fatigue.
Avoid bathing during active phases of illness or when feeling unwell. Bathing after consuming alcohol is particularly dangerous and should be avoided.
