Abstract:
Temporal change of skin temperature after a bathing with warm water is not always the same on all occasions. These differences are remarkably shown between bathing with warm city water and with hot spring water. Exercises have also considerable influence on time course of skin temperature.
It was observed that the hot spring bathing decreased the difference of skin temperature between the left and right side, and the central and peripheral part of the body.
