A gentle alkaline simple thermal spring drawn from Gero Onsen's Koda pump station. The alkalinity gives the slippery, soft-on-the-skin feel of Japan's beauty-water family, and a generous load of metasilicic acid leaves the kind of thin silica film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother afterwards. Mineralization is light, so the water is undemanding on the body; the posted analysis lists it for chronic muscle and joint pain and stiffness, autonomic nervous system instability, and fatigue recovery. The inn's own bath-side table notes that the tubs are fed with the blended supply from that same pump station.
