Yubunosato Ryoso Makibanoie
Analysis VerifiedThis private source is located in the renowned Yufuin Onsen, nestled at the foot of Mt. Yufu. Pumped from 200 meters underground, the Yubunosato Ryoso Makibanoie source is a weakly alkaline simple spring with a pH of 8.1. Yufuin has long been cherished as a therapeutic spa town, establishing itself as a tranquil retreat by intentionally avoiding a bustling entertainment district. Embodying this philosophy, the water is exceptionally gentle and kind to the skin. Steeping in these waters allows you to forget the daily hustle and embrace a serene moment, as if held by Yufuin's abundant nature.
The bar length shows how abundant each component is compared to thresholds that make it "distinctive" (therapeutic spring standards, beauty spring criteria, etc.).
A natural moisturizer also used in skincare lotions. Forms a thin veil on the skin to reduce moisture loss after bathing.
A trace component with gentle antibacterial and anti-inflammatory action.
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.
The source temperature is high at 56.8°C, so the water may be diluted or cooled. Begin by carefully warming your body with "kake-yu," starting from your feet. As a gentle, weakly alkaline spring, it's suitable for long soaks, but taking breaks will prevent fatigue and enhance relaxation.
With a pH of 8.1, this weakly alkaline water helps soften and wash away old skin cells. Furthermore, it is exceptionally rich in metasilicic acid (215.0 mg/kg), a known skin-beautifying component, promising a moisturized, silky skin feel post-bath. This gentle simple spring also offers deep relaxation, making it ideal for those seeking to relieve daily fatigue.
While the spring is gentle, it is not a cure-all. Avoid bathing if you have acute illnesses (especially with fever), active tuberculosis, malignant tumors, or other serious conditions.
