(NEW)Authentic Public Bathing Wellness Experience in Kyoto

(NEW)Authentic Public Bathing Wellness Experience in Kyoto

・Explains effective bathing methods in detail and in an easy-to-understand manner Research has shown that a 1.1°C rise in body temperature is optimal for relieving stress. Bathing also dilates blood vessels, which helps to recover from fatigue. So, let's use a thermometer and blood pressure monitor to observe the changes in body temperature and blood pressure before and after bathing. Many people will be surprised by the rise in body temperature. However, if you do not know the correct way to bathe, your body temperature will not rise to the level necessary to relieve stress, and your blood pressure will rise, increasing the risk of bathing accidents. So, we will explain in detail how to bathe to maximize its effectiveness. We will teach you a lot of new knowledge, such as the fact that it has been proven that immersing yourself up to your shoulders is clearly easier to raise your body temperature than immersing yourself only up to your armpits!
