Hot spring taboos at Taishan Fudu Hot Spring Resort

Hot springs are a special natural resource. Regular soaking is not only good for your health, but also has multiple functions such as medical care and beauty. If you already know this, do you know some common sense and precautions when soaking? I believe that after reading the following content, you can become a "hot spring expert".

1. Before taking a bath, please read and abide by the regulations of each hot spring management unit, such as not wearing clothes, not wiping your body in the water, not using soap, etc. These regulations are mainly to prevent damage to the hot spring water quality. Next, please take a shower first and wash your body before entering the pool to soak. This is polite and ethical.

2. Not every hot spring is suitable for soaking. Do not soak in hot springs that are too hot or too acidic. A temperature of 30-45 degrees is more appropriate. When entering a hot spring pool, in addition to not scrubbing your body, do not exercise or kick in the pool. The correct approach is to lie quietly in the hot spring pool and enjoy the feeling of hot spring seeping into your body.

3. The hot spring soaking time depends on personal needs and hot spring temperature, but generally speaking, a single soak should not exceed 15 minutes, and should be limited to three times a day. There is a saying that goes like this: taking a bath once or twice is called bathing, taking a bath three or four times is called enjoyment, and taking a bath five or six times is called maintaining health. There is also a formula for soaking in hot springs: two or three times a day, three or five times each time, three to five minutes (minutes) each time. These are reference values, but the point is to remind everyone: Don’t soak for longer. Or the more times you wash it, the more effective it will be. This is not a correct concept.

4. Try to avoid soaking in hot springs before or immediately after meals. It is more appropriate to leave at least 60 minutes after meals.

5. It is not advisable to bathe in hot springs immediately after a long journey. It is best to take a short rest first and wait for your physical strength to recover before soaking in the hot spring pool.

6. For those who are prone to insomnia, lukewarm hot springs are suitable. It is best to lie down and soak for a while. If you feel headache, nausea, or palpitations, it is not advisable to soak again. People with specific diseases or special physiological conditions should pay attention to their own safety when bathing in hot springs.

7. Usually there is no need to rinse with water after getting up from the hot spring pool. However, for people with skin allergies or when the concentration of the spring is too high, it is best to rinse again to avoid any adverse effects.
