December 8, 2023

  In the cold winter, going to hot springs for a "soak" is a popular choice for many newlyweds on their honeymoon. After soaking, it's also nice to steam in a sauna, which is both comfortable and relaxing. However, this practice is not scientifically sound. What should we pay attention to when soaking in hot springs?

Soaking in hot springs has its benefits, but there are also some things to keep in mind. Let's take a look at the twelve points to consider when soaking in hot springs:

1. Do not soak in hot springs on an empty stomach when you feel hungry, as it can easily lead to dizziness, nausea, and fatigue.

2. If you have been sitting in a car for a long time or have traveled a long distance and are extremely tired, do not immediately go soak in hot springs, as it may make you even more tired.

3. If you have had insufficient sleep or stayed up late and then suddenly soak in hot springs with a high temperature, it could result in shock or cerebral ischemia.

4. When you are in a highly excited or angry mood with a fast heartbeat, it is also not suitable to soak in hot springs.

5. Do not soak in hot springs immediately after a full meal or drinking alcohol, as it may cause indigestion and cerebral hemorrhage.

6. If you have poor nutrition or are currently ill, do not go soak in hot springs.

7. People with heart disease, high blood pressure, and arteriosclerosis should slowly rub their bodies with hot springs before soaking, rather than immediately immersing themselves, to avoid affecting blood vessel constriction.

8. People with cancer or leukemia are not suitable for soaking in hot springs, as it can stimulate metabolism and quickly weaken the body.

9. If you have acute cold, acute illness, or infectious diseases, it is best not to go soak in hot springs.

10. Women should temporarily refrain from soaking in hot springs during their menstrual period or before and after it, as well as during early and late pregnancy.

11. The duration of soaking in hot springs should be based on the temperature of the hot springs. If it is too hot, do not soak for too long.

12. If you feel uncomfortable while soaking in hot springs, you should leave immediately and not continue to soak.
