Therapeutic Massage Amami

The second picture above shows the red-themed Akakuchiba room, invoking images of the russet, reddish-brown leaves of late autumn trees. As you can see, maples feature prominently in the room design.  The project, which first Amami massage started 30 years ago, is just one way in which Kurokawa has made itself known across Japan. Now, many consider it one of the country’s premier hot spring destinations, where many exciting events are held every year.
The first picture above shows the Yumihari, a modern Japanese-style room that’s as elegant as it is cozy. The second picture above shows the open-air bath at the Yumemi, which also features a hearth for that added touch of Japanese charm. This vast hotel features 27 private cottages with their own open-air baths, offering guests such beautiful sights as early morning mist with the spectacular Mt. Yufu in the background. The hotel also has a “Four Season Forest” strolling area where guests can enjoy the beauty of Japan’s four seasons. Located in the center of Oita Prefecture , Yufuin stretches around the foot of Mt. Yufu , also known as the area's Mt. Fuji.

A void connects the library to the MAGUN Plaza below so that hotel guests can feel the presence and activity of the locals and the seniors living in the eldercare facility. “Denpaku + Magun” is a facility that consists of a hotel, eldercare facility, eatery and food mart, repurposed from a former supermarket. It is a ten minute drive from Amami airport, in the northern part of Amami Oshima, a subtropical island which belongs to Kagoshima Prefecture. The supermarket used to be a place where the locals gathered and socialized. This renovated facility aims to recreate a hub for everyone in the community, including the socially vulnerable and tourists. Widely distributed in Southeast Asia, Thailand, India, Taiwan, etc.
Photogenic landscapes that can only be found on this island can be found here and there. We have also started trial production of various indigo dyeing works. The hotel consists of 7 guest cottages spread all around the foot of the Kirishima mountains. Each is different and features an open-air bath fed from the hotel’s private source. It’s the perfect place to relax in comfortable, private surroundings while enjoying the soothing sounds of nature.  The first picture above shows the view from the OCEAN VILLA, where guests can enjoy the kind of peace, quiet, and splendorous nature that only Amami Oshima can offer.

I didn’t know the details, and the time I stayed at the place I went to for the first time was about 3 hours. I stayed on Kakeromajima, a small island about 20 minutes by boat from the main island of Amami, and while helping the fields, my body became healthy while interacting with nature.
It’s one of the best places to feel the ancient power of nature. Because of its well-preserved ecosystem, Yakushima was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site in 1993 and has become one of Japan’s most coveted tourist spots. The hotel features an observation platform which is surrounded by nature and offers views of Ibusuki City and the bay. Yurian also boasts a floating restaurant, Yukusatsumugi-tei , where guests can enjoy meals in private rooms. Amami Oshima is a 712 km² island located roughly halfway between the main island of Okinawa and Kagoshima Prefecture .
Just like in the book, you  can find a whole different world of privacy at Ikkoten, which is composed of just 10 guest cottages dotting an area 7,600 m² wide. Every room is equipped with a semi-open-air hot spring bath fed directly from a natural underground source. The hot spring water is alkaline and said to have a beautifying effect on the skin. The hotel also offers two family-sized baths that can be reserved, from which you can relax and gaze upon Mt. Yufu, the symbol of the area.

We visit Ryukyu indigo producers, mud indigo producers, and dyers in Okinawa to divide the seedlings, and while learning the knowledge of agriculture, we continue to raise seedlings through trial and error with farmers. Currently, I am trying to grow Ryukyu indigo with a farmer, and I am trying various ways to make indigo dye. Currently, we have set up a study group with volunteers from local villages, and have turned the closed elementary school into a workshop or atelier, and are working with writers and volunteers from the island. The unique and beautiful color that is highly transparent and soothes the mind is called Amami Blue.
This is the perfect place to take it slowly and forget about the hustle and bustle of city life. In the future, I would be happy if I could expand the range of my works and expressions by having writers utilize Ryukyu Ai, and while increasing the value of Ryukyu Ai, I hope that it will lead to income for each. In addition, I would like  to be able to circulate and develop the region centered on indigo dyeing. Unfortunately, Mr. Yoshikawa died two years ago, and the technology has not been inherited.

There are many things to do in the area, such as watching performances of the sacred kagura dance at the shrine’s Kagura-den hall. If you want a view of Mt. Yufu, you’ll want to reserve the Seiheki, Suou, Kyara, or Sekichiku rooms, which fall under the “Mt. If a view of the trees is more your style, reserve a “Forest View” room, which includes the Shinshu, Ruri, Moegi, and Matsuba rooms. If you’re traveling with a group of adults, we recommend the “Private Villa” Touou or Geppaku rooms.
There is an indigo field on the island, and there is also an indigo dyeing workshop and an atelier for writers in the elementary school, so it is an environment where it is easy to move in cooperation. This elementary school was set up by Aya Sada of “Natural Nunodokoro no Ya”, a weaving and dyeing artist living in Kakei Roma, as “Kakeroma Handwork Studio”, and several creators used the classroom as an atelier. It is also being used, and we have the island’s handicraft writers get involved in indigo dyeing together, which is useful for making works.
