1. Don’t take your metal ornaments with you when taking a hot spring bath,

otherwise your cherished items will be destroyed.

2. Don’t take the hot spring bath on an empty stomach, after drinking or after a

meal. It should be taken with an interval of an hour after you have a

meal.

3. Do choose a hot spring pool with a suitable temperature. The process

always starts from a relatively colder temperature to a hotter one. Each

session lasts for about 15 to 20 minutes.

4. Don’t sit in the bath for too long, or else you may experience momentary dizziness when you stand up to leave. If you find yourself uncomfortable at any point, you should get out of the bath and drink a glass of water.

5. Don’t take bath in a temperature that is too hot. The temperature should be between 30℃ to 45℃.

wise to have someone there with you so as to help avoid accidents in the event

that one happens.
