Japanese Hot Spring Bath

I literally wrote this review while soaking in the tub with the Japanese Hot Spring Bath—talk about bliss! The minerals dissolve so nicely, and within minutes I could feel my muscles loosening up. The whole bathroom smells like a spa, and my skin feels silky smooth already. Honestly, it’s the closest thing to being in an actual onsen without leaving home.

Just pretend I’m in an onsen right now, okay? Like actually steaming my stress away in a traditional Japanese hot spring… except it’s just my tiny bathtub. But let me have this moment.

I tossed in one of these mineral sachets from Onsen Secret, and honestly? I’m soaking my stress away. The scent, the warmth, the whole vibe—it’s giving spa, it’s giving peace, it’s giving me-time. And it doesn’t get more budget-friendly than that.

Highly recommend if you need to escape without leaving your house. ✌️

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this Japanese Hot Spring Mineral Bath totally surprised me—in the best way. The scent is relaxing, and the minerals made my skin feel soft and soothed. After soaking for 20 minutes, I felt like I had just left a spa. My muscles were less tense, and I actually slept better that night. Definitely adding this to my weekly self-care routine!

I’ve always wanted to try a real Japanese hot spring bath, and this is the next best thing. The Onsen Secret bath soak truly gives that spa-like, calming experience right at home. Just 10 minutes in the tub left me feeling totally relaxed and recharged—for hours! My muscles felt less tense, and my skin was soft and refreshed. It’s honestly amazing that something like this exists. If you’ve been stressed or just need a little reset, this is a must-try. Don’t wait—grab it before it sells out!

Okay, so I’m not reviewing these just yet because I haven’t tried them—but I had to hop on and let you know about these Japanese hot spring bath sachets I got. They're inspired by traditional onsen baths, which are known for their mineral-rich, therapeutic benefits.

I looked them up on the brand’s website, and they’re $26 for just one packet—yep, one! And I got three of them complimentary through Flip. So sometimes, Flip really does come through. 🙌

I’m filming this from beside my bathtub (which is hilarious because I literally just posted the other day about how content creators never have time for baths). But I’m making time this week to try one of these.

It’s super easy—just fill your tub with warm water, drop the sachet in, give it a squeeze to release the minerals, and soak for 10–15 minutes… or longer if you’ve got the time. The effects are supposed to last up to three hours! No idea what those effects feel like yet, but I’ll definitely report back once I experience it.

Fun fact: I’ve lived here for a month and haven’t even used this bathtub yet. That’s about to change.

I’ll keep you posted! In the meantime, have a fantastic day—and I’ll see you on the flip side. 🛁💫

In Japan, they have these traditional “onsen” baths—natural hot spring baths infused with minerals. They're a big part of Japanese culture and wellness, often visited by tourists and locals alike for their therapeutic effects. Some high-end spas in Dallas even offer onsen-style treatments, though they can be pricey—about $150 per session!

As someone who lives with RA (rheumatoid arthritis), I’ve found these baths incredibly helpful. The hot mineral soak offers relief that lasts for hours, and it genuinely makes a difference in managing chronic pain.

I just received a set of three Onsen mineral bath sachets to try at home, and I’m so excited. At-home onsen treatments like these are such a gift—especially when you can get them as part of a deal or promotion. I haven't tried them yet, but I plan to use one tonight after a long day with my little monsters (a.k.a. the kids!). I’m hoping it gives me the same relaxation and relief I experienced at the spa.

If you're dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, or just need a deep relaxation reset, I’d definitely recommend giving these a try.

Hello! I’ve been soaking in the bath for a little over half an hour—even though the directions recommend 10–15 minutes—and I have to say, it’s been really lovely. The Onsen bath sachet doesn’t have a strong scent, which can be a pro or con depending on what you prefer. I personally enjoy a more spa-like aroma, so I found it a bit lacking in that department.

The sachet itself is nicely made and seems to contain dried flowers or herbs, which is a nice touch and keeps things tidy—no mess floating around in the water.

While the experience is relaxing and pleasant, I’m struggling to see what justifies the high price tag. At over $50 for a pack of three, it feels steep. There are other mineral bath options on the market that offer similar benefits—muscle relief, detox, relaxation—at a more accessible price point.

If these were priced closer to $5–10 per sachet, or if there were a significant discount (like 50% off), I’d consider repurchasing. Until then, I’ll enjoy what I have but likely won’t replenish at full price.

Still, it does feel good—and that’s worth something. Just not $52 for three in my book. Hope this helps!

I’ve tried a lot of bath products, but this Onsen at-home hot spring soak delivered the longest-lasting relaxation I’ve ever felt. You just squeeze the sachet under warm water, and it releases mineral-rich goodness that turns your bath into a calming, spa-like experience. I stayed in for 15 minutes and came out feeling completely reset—my body and mind both felt lighter.

Pro: The deep, lasting relaxation
Con: There’s some cleanup afterward, but it's worth it.

Highly recommend if you need a real moment of peace at home.

One of my friends just came back from Japan raving about the onsens—those natural hot springs with mineral-rich water and a whole wellness culture behind them. I’ve always been into mineral baths (Iceland’s are still on my bucket list!), so when I saw this Onsen hot spring bath pack on Flip, I had to try it.

I got a 3-pack, and it even came with a little bag, which makes it perfect for gifting—one is going to my friend as a fun reminder of their trip. The minerals are sourced from Hokkaido, Japan, and they claim to help with everything from muscle tension and circulation to stress, jet lag, and even insomnia.

I will say the price feels a little steep for three one-ounce pouches, but if you’re going to use them intentionally and soak for a while (I do at least 30 minutes), it can really feel worth it. It’s a relaxing way to bring the onsen experience home, especially if you love spa vibes and don’t have a trip to Japan booked anytime soon.

If the price comes down a bit, I’d give it five stars. But if you love mineral baths, this is definitely worth trying!
