Safety Measures: In light of recent sauna incidents across various facilities, our top priority is your safety. We have conducted thorough safety inspections of our sauna equipment. Rest assured that our staff will adhere strictly to safety protocols to ensure an enjoyable visit.
Experience the Essence of Winter Solstice in Hokkaido
The tradition of yuzu baths during the winter solstice symbolizes the wish for health and longevity. However, sourcing authentic, fragrant yuzu in Hokkaido can be challenging. This event aims to bring the authentic experience of yuzu baths to the people of Hokkaido, showcasing the quality yuzu of Tokigawa-town through direct farmer collaboration.
Moreover, as our society becomes increasingly disconnected, saunas emerge as 'third places' where both mental and physical health flourish through community interaction. By merging traditional yuzu baths with contemporary sauna culture, this event serves as a bridge between localities and individuals, helping goodsauna & spa SAPPORO become a wellness hub for the community.
Discover the Supreme Winter Solstice Experience with Tokigawa-town’s Yuzu
The yuzu from Tokigawa-town boasts thick skin and a potent aroma, ensuring that even amidst the steam of the bathing facility, its scent remains intact. This contributes to maximal relaxation during your visit:
- - Bathing: Enjoy the luxurious experience of authentic yuzu baths with freshly delivered yuzu floating in the large bath. The essential oils released from the thick skin emit a rich fragrance, warming your body from within.
- - Sauna: Immerse Yourself with Yuzu Lo-Ryu. In the 3rd-floor rock bathing area, unique Yuzu Aroma Lo-Ryu sessions will be held, where refreshing citrus aromas will enhance sweating and offer profound relaxation.
-
Times: Daily sessions at 12:00 PM, 2:00 PM, 4:00 PM, 6:00 PM, 8:00 PM, 10:00 PM, and 12:00 AM.
- - Lounge: Treat Yourself to Yuzu Drinks. Complimentary limited edition yuzu drinks will be available in the lounge after bathing, guaranteed to refresh and replenish.
Enjoy a Serene Moment in Hokkaido!
“We yearn to deliver the best winter solstice experience, usually cherished in mainland Japan, to the people of Hokkaido. This vision brought us to Tokigawa-town in Saitama Prefecture. Overcoming logistic challenges, with the help of local farmers, we created this initiative—a genuine gift that builds a bridge across regions. Experience the essence of yuzu, kissed by the sun, in the bitter cold of winter.”
