Young and old alike, the Japanese love baths, whether in a hot spring, a public bathhouse, or a private tub. Soaking in hot water is a time-honored way of relaxing. In recent years, two new types of bath have become popular.

Both types of bath are attracting attention for their putative benefits in terms of weight, beauty, and detoxification.
