Kesennuma Onsen

A hot spring district located in Kesennuma commanding a view of the sea off the Sanriku coast, one of the top fishing grounds in the world. The natural hot spring here, buried deep underground, was first developed in 2005. The waters of this hypotonic common salt spring, welling up from 1,800 meters below the surface, are said to ease nerve pain, sensitivity to cold, atopic dermatitis, and blood circulation blockages. A strongly saline sodium-chloride spring, its waters are salty like the ocean. Because bathers can rest their heads on the edge of a tub, stretch out their legs, and float as easily as if they were swimming in the sea itself, this hot spring district is also known as the Buoyant Onsen. The hot spring here also boasts one of the highest ion concentrations in the Tohoku area and possesses strong heat-retaining properties, thus warming the body from the inside-out and promoting beauty.
