In Japan, hot stoned bath (Ganban-yoku) is popular. It’s a sauna-style spa that you lie down on a heated bedrock to detox your body and improve blood circulation. Since the temperature of the stone is 40-60℃, it’s easier to say longer than saunas. Your body will get warm gradually.
The following two spas welcome international guests. Although English menus are not available, friendly staff will explain you from how to buy tickets to how to use the spas. You can borrow towels and a bathing clothes.
