Name of facility : Kantama (health clinic) Visit date : 2020/10/25 Visitor name : Nathaniel Hoy
Outside Kantama
Kantama is located roughly 45 minutes from Ayabe Station.
Kantama is a unique health clinic that offers two different ways to detoxify your body.
When I visited, I was able to try both.
Explaining the day's activities
The first requires you to change into a heavy muumuu like dress that covers you from your neck to blow your feet.
Once changed you then sit over a stove with a collection of herbs boiling underneath you.
With only a small opening to allow airflow the heat builds up and helps you sweat toxins out.
Due to anatomy and the way the seat is shaped this can be a little uncomfortable for men.
The seat and stove you sit on
The second part is a rice-bran enzyme bath which works better the more you sweat.
Part one does improve the detox ability of the rice-bran bath.
Similar to a sand bath you are instead buried in rice-bran which has been heated to help you release toxins by sweating.
This was quite relaxing and really did make me perspire quite a lot.
Buried in the rice-bran
After the rice-bran bath you will be completely covered in dried rice-bran.
A shower room is located in the same room so you can freshen up.
I would definitely like to try the rice-bran bath again.
Both male and female staff are available to make the experience
as pleasant as possible.
