1.Low usage fee

One of the attractions of the sento is cheap.

Depending on the place you live, the public bath fee is equalized by the union.

For example, in Tokyo where I live, all the public baths are 460 yen, neighboring Chiba prefecture is 430 yen, Kanagawa prefecture is 470 yen.

There is no charge more than 500 yen nationwide, and you can get a change with one coin.

2. Effective for recovery from fatigue

For muscle fatigue after running, a substitute bath that warms your capillary and then cools it is effective.

In many public baths there is a water bath, so “Cold & Temperate Bath” is possible by alternating between hot bath and water bath.

There are also many public baths equipped with a jet bath with a high massage effect, so if you use them together, you can expect higher effects.

Especially for the feet, blood circulation tends to be stagnant, so actively care for fatigued muscles by mastering effective bathing methods.

3. Open until late night

If it is a public bath in Tokyo, it is open until 23:00 at the earliest, and it is open until 2 pm if it is late.

Light exercise and bathing are effective to alleviate the stress gained by overtime work.

4. There are many cases where a coin-operated laundry is provided

A lot of public baths have a coin launderette attached.

It is possible to wash and dry running wear wet with sweat with a launderette.

In addition, the quiet time waiting for the drying of the laundry quietly may offer you a fleeting healing.
