What should I pay attention to when soaking in hot springs? In the process of soaking in hot springs, we must master the precautions for soaking in hot springs in winter. Only by taking health care measures can we ensure the effect of soaking in hot springs.
Starting from the cryogenic pool, there is an orderly bubble pool. Step by step into the hot spring pool and let your body adapt slowly. Wet your body in advance: put your hand into the spring water with a depth of 30 ~ 40cm to test the temperature, then scoop up the spring water and pour it on your legs, arms and trunk. Hot springs should not be soaked in a pool with high water temperature, but in a pool with mild water temperature. In the pool water with high temperature, each soaking time shall not exceed 10 minute. Soak in mild pool water alternately in time or let your body rest in time without water.
Because the water temperature in hot springs is mostly 38 ~42 degrees Celsius, which is slightly higher than the body temperature, the soaking time should not exceed 10~ 15 minutes, but not more than 3 times a day, so as not to increase the heart load. Moreover, when in an environment below 30 degrees Celsius, the body can also use convection, radiation and sweating to dissipate heat; Once it reaches above 36 degrees Celsius, it can only be dissipated by sweating. But in water, sweat can't evaporate at all, which will make it difficult for the body to dissipate heat. Soaking for too long may lead to heatstroke.
When you leave the pool, you should also move slowly. Stand up slowly, wait for your body to adapt, and then leave the hot spring. Although most hot spring operators advise not to take a bath immediately after soaking, let the minerals in the spring water stay on the skin for skin care. But in fact, these minerals can't penetrate into the skin and have little effect on the body. Due to different geological areas, hot spring water is acidic and alkaline. In order to avoid the skin being stimulated by acidic or alkaline substances in spring water, it is best to take a bath afterwards.
In high temperature environment, the body loses water easily. After soaking in hot springs, be sure to drink plenty of boiled water as a supplement. When you soak in hot springs, the pores on your face will release a lot of free radicals and damage your skin. It is best to apply a mask or a cold towel to your face. At the same time, close your eyes and meditate, take a deep breath slowly, and really relieve physical and mental stress.
Precautions after soaking in hot springs: After soaking in hot springs, it is generally not necessary to wash with clear water, but if it is a hot spring soaked in strong acid or hydrogen sulfide, it is best to wash it to avoid irritating the skin and causing allergies. Pay attention to keep warm after soaking in hot springs, and quickly dry the whole body, especially the wrinkles around the armpits, crotch, navel and limbs. Apply moisturizing lotion in time to lock up skin moisture. After soaking in hot springs, a lot of water evaporates in the body, so drink plenty of water to supplement it.
