  Hereinafter, although the present invention is explained based on an embodiment, referring to an accompanying drawing, the present invention is not limited only to this embodiment.

  The hot spring water gel of the present invention is made into a gel by adding an appropriate amount of drinking gelatin powder to hot spring water.

  The hot spring water can be various types such as an acidic spring, a neutral spring, and an alkaline spring, and the type of the spring is not particularly limited. However, the hot spring water is assumed to be before being used for bathing. In addition, when chlorine etc. are added for the purpose of sterilization, it shall be the thing before it.

  Moreover, hot spring water may be filtered with a filter as needed. For example, when there is an open part in the hot spring water supply path, it is preferable to filter with a filter because there is a possibility that dust and the like may be mixed.

  The temperature of the hot spring water source is preferably less than 100 ° C, but is preferably 50 ° C or less. This is because when the source temperature exceeds 100 ° C., microorganisms such as bacteria that do not die even by the boiling disinfection process described later live in the hot spring water, and the microorganisms such as bacteria are added to the hot spring water as food. This is because the hot spring water may rot due to breeding.

  As mentioned above, microorganisms such as various bacteria may inhabit the hot spring water. In order to kill these microorganisms, they are boiled and sterilized by boiling before the start of the hot spring water gel production. The boiling time is about 2 minutes.

  The drinking gelatin powder is preferably extracted from the collagen of mammals such as cows and pigs, but can also be extracted from the collagen of fish such as salmon. However, drinking gelatin powder that does not produce an unpleasant odor that adversely affects the therapy during natural therapy is particularly preferred. For example, a drinking gelatin powder that does not reveal an odor latent in hot spring water, such as an iron odor, is particularly preferable.

  In the present specification, a drinking gelatin powder that does not cause an unpleasant odor that adversely affects the therapy during natural therapy is referred to as “natural therapy compatible powder”.

  The amount of drinkable gelatin powder to be added, that is, the naturopathic powder, is appropriately adjusted according to the quality of the hot spring water, the room temperature during the treatment, etc., but 2.5 g for 100 cc (100 ml) of hot spring water. Although −7 g is a temporary standard, it is preferably in the range of 4.5 g to 5.5 g.

  However, as a general tendency, the lower limit value of the addition amount of the acidic spring is higher than that of the alkaline spring, and the upper limit value is lower than that of the alkaline spring. This is due to the general tendency that alkaline springs are slippery and slippery. In addition, hot spring water gels made from acidic springs and neutral springs tend to be liquefied more easily than those made from alkaline springs, as will be described later. It is good to do.

  Moreover, the temperature of the hot spring water at the time of adding and melt | dissolving drinking gelatin powder (natural therapy compatible powder) shall be about 60 degreeC (for example, 58-62 degreeC). Next, hot spring water to which potable gelatin powder (natural therapy compatible powder) is added is heated to completely dissolve the added powder. In this case, however, since the quality of the hot spring water changes when it exceeds 65 ° C., the heating is adjusted so that the temperature of the hot spring water does not exceed 65 ° C. For example, heating is performed at 58 to 62 ° C.

  After the added drinkable gelatin powder (natural therapy compatible powder) is dissolved in hot spring water, the container is placed in, for example, ice water and cooled to promote gelation. When the room temperature is low such as in winter, the gelation may be performed by simply soaking in water and cooling.

  When solidification, that is, gelation starts, stirring is performed. This stirring is performed until gelling is completed. The time until the gelation is completed varies depending on the ambient temperature when gelling, but is about 30 minutes.

  The hot spring water gel thus obtained was treated on a female subject, that is, applied to confirm the effect.

  The effects were as follows.

  The feeling of moisturizing skin lasted for several days.

  Other than the body, the feeling lasted for a long time. In particular, the coldness of the toes of women's toes has been resolved.

  A sweating effect was observed.

  Packing effect was observed.

  I have swollen legs.

  A whitening effect was observed. This whitening effect tends to be higher when the hot spring water gel is refrigerated (stored at 4 ° C.-10 ° C.) for several hours (4-8 hours), that is, tempered.

  Depending on the hot spring water used, there was a case in which the wound that was in the subject healed.

  In addition, since the obtained hot spring water gel tends to be liquefied, it is preferable to store it in a cool dark place, for example, a refrigerator, when not immediately performing treatment. However, it is preferable to keep it for up to 3 days and discard it after it has passed.

  Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to more specific examples.

  First, selection of drinking gelatin powder will be described.

  Candidates for drinkable gelatin powder include Yasu Chemical Gelatin Gelatin Powder / Green (trade name), Maruha Gelice Gelatin Powder (trade name), Morinaga Seika Co., Ltd. Cook Gelatin (trade name) The gelatin for cooking made by Yasu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. was selected, hot spring water gel was manufactured, and the odor during the treatment was observed. All were obtained from porcine collagen.

  As a result, the jellyose gelatin powder / green produced by Yasu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. did not produce an unpleasant odor. Therefore, it was judged to be optimal for natural remedies, and the jellyose gelatin powder / green produced by Yasu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. was selected. In other words, it was selected as a natural therapy compatible powder.

Example 1
Using hot spring water containing iron, sodium, calcium and chloride strong salt springs (acid springs) springing around Hioki in Miyazu City, Kyoto Prefecture, selected as a natural remedy compatible powder manufactured by Yasu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. The hot spring water gel was produced using the following procedure.

  Procedure 1: Put 200 cc (200 milliliters) of hot spring water in a cooking bowl that has been boiled and disinfected and boil for 2 minutes. In other words, boiling hot spring water is sterilized.

  Procedure 2: Naturally cool the hot spring water to 60 ° C.

  Procedure 3: Sprinkle 10 g of natural remedy compatible powder on hot spring water and stir with a stirrer. The stirrer is also boiled in advance.

  Procedure 4: A ball containing hot spring water is heated by heating to completely dissolve the naturopathic compatible powder. In this case, the heating is adjusted so that the temperature of the hot spring water does not exceed 65 ° C. In addition, the thermometer for adjusting the heating is also boiled and disinfected in advance.

  Step 5: Cool the ball containing hot spring water in a ball containing ice water. The balls used for cooling are also boiled in advance.

  Procedure 6: After solidification, ie gelling, is started, the mixture is stirred with a stirrer. This stirring is continued until gelling is complete.

  The hot spring water gel thus obtained was treated on a female subject, that is, applied to confirm the effect. In this case, the applied hot spring water gel soaked into the skin immediately and did not cause a so-called slimy feeling.

  FIG. 1 is a photograph comparing a left hand painted with hot spring water gel with a right hand painted without hot spring water gel to show the difference in effect. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the left hand with hot spring water gel is exfoliated and whitened.

  In addition to sweating, long lasting sensation, and healing ability of scratches.

  In addition, the patient's legs were swollen.

Comparative Example 1
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the amount of the natural remedy compatible powder to be added was increased to 15 g. The obtained hot spring water gel was somewhat hard and unsuitable for the treatment.

Comparative Example 2
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the amount of the naturopathic powder to be added was increased to 20 g. The obtained hot spring water gel was hard and was not suitable for treatment at all.

Comparative Example 3
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the amount of the natural remedy compatible powder to be added was reduced to 5 g. The obtained hot spring water gel immediately liquefied and could not be treated.

Comparative Example 4
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the amount of the natural remedy compatible powder to be added was reduced to 7 g. The obtained hot spring water gel immediately liquefied and could not be treated.

Example 2
A hot spring water gel is produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that a sodium-chloride spring (alkaline spring) springing near Hioki in Miyazu City, Kyoto Prefecture is used as the hot spring water, and the female subject is treated, that is, painted. The effect was confirmed. In this case, the applied hot spring water gel did not soak into the skin immediately, and a so-called slimy feeling was generated.

  From this, it can be seen that when an alkaline spring is used as a raw material, the liquefaction rate is slower than when an acidic spring is used as a raw material.

  Skin smoothness that lasted for several days, sweating, long lasting and other sensations were noted. The duration of other feelings was longer than that of Example 1.

Example 3
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the amount of the natural remedy compatible powder to be added was increased to 14 g. The obtained hot spring water gel could be treated almost in the same manner as in Example 2, and the same effect was observed.

Example 4
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the amount of the naturopathic powder added was reduced to 5 g. Although the obtained hot spring water gel was low in gelation, it could be treated almost in the same manner as in Example 2, and almost the same effect was observed although the degree of effect was low.

Example 5
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the amount of the natural remedy compatible powder to be added was reduced to 7 g. Although the obtained hot spring water gel was low in gelation, it could be treated almost in the same manner as in Example 2, and almost the same effect was observed although the degree of effect was low. The degree of this effect was higher than that of Example 4.

Comparative Example 5
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 2 except that the amount of the naturopathic powder to be added was increased to 20 g. The obtained hot spring water gel was hard and was not suitable for treatment at all.

Example 6
A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that a few drops of aroma oil (fragrance oil / mosque) were added. When the obtained hot spring water gel was applied to a female subject, the smell of aroma persisted for several hours.

  From this, it is considered that adding the odor component preferred by the patient can contribute to improving the mood of the patient.

Reference Example A hot spring water gel was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that agar powder was used instead of the natural therapy compatible powder. The obtained hot spring water gel was hard and could not be treated.

  As mentioned above, although this invention has been demonstrated based on embodiment and an Example, this invention is not limited only to this embodiment and Example, A various change is possible. For example, if the effect of natural remedies is not adversely affected, the gelatin powder for cosmetics can be made into a natural remedy compatible powder.

  In addition, if the hot spring water used as a raw material is a high hot spring, for example, about 100 ° C., and microorganisms such as bacteria are not detected in the water quality test, the boiling disinfection treatment of the hot spring water may be omitted.

  The present invention is applicable to natural remedies.
