[Bathtub temperature information]

Thank you very much for your continued patronage of Kamenoi Hotel Fukui.

[Bathtub temperature information]
・At our hotel, the two baths in the large communal bath are set at 41°C for the hot bath and 30°C for the cold bath, and we recommend alternating between hot and cold baths.

[Hot and cold alternating baths]

- Alternating hot and cold baths involve pouring water over yourself before getting into the bathtub, then alternating between bathing in the hot tub for about 3 minutes and the cold tub for about 1 minute, and doing this multiple times depending on your physical condition.
*If you tend to get hot easily, try shortening the time you spend in the hot tub.
*If you do not like cold water, you can also get the same effect by taking a cold shower for 30 to 60 seconds, from the fingertips to the knees and elbows, working from the extremities to the center.

[How to take a bath]

- Before getting into the bathtub, rinse yourself with water, then alternate between bathing in the hot tub for about 3 minutes and the cold tub for about 1 minute. Do this multiple times depending on your physical condition.

【effect】

- By alternating between stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system with a hot bath and stimulating the sympathetic nervous system with a cold bath, you can balance your autonomic nervous system, which can help improve poor circulation and relieve stress.
- The hot and cold effects promote blood circulation throughout the body, which can help relieve fatigue and expel excess waste products, improving metabolism and helping to alleviate swelling and stiff shoulders.

【important point】

- Be sure to drink plenty of fluids before and after starting a hot or cold bath and before taking a break.
・Avoid using the bath if you have a cold or are feeling unwell. Take your time and gradually get used to the temperature.
- Do not perform this exercise if you have a history of heart disease such as angina pectoris, high blood pressure, or stroke.
・Please refrain from bathing after consuming alcohol.
