A blended source drawing on the No. 1 and No. 2 wells of the Kinugawa-Kawaji spring development, classified as an alkaline simple thermal spring. At pH 9.1 it sits in Japan's beauty-water family, the alkalinity giving a soft, slippery feel on the skin, while a dissolved-solids total of only 447 mg/kg keeps the water light and unchallenging. The public notice posted here is written for foot bathing rather than full immersion, and records that the water is diluted, reheated to offset the cooling caused by recirculation, circulated through a filtration unit and disinfected with a chlorine agent. The same notice lists no spring-type-specific contraindications, only the standard cautions against bathing during acute illness or with irritated skin.
