Blackstone Hotsprings Safety Tips
The property is professionally managed and generally safe for healthy adults. The artesian mineral water flows at a naturally comfortable temperature without additional heating. The temperature is consistent and moderate, and the water is crystal clear, odorless, and chemical-free. Standard precautions apply: stay hydrated before and after soaking, exit slowly if you feel light-headed, and limit the first soak to a comfortable duration if you are not accustomed to mineral bathing.

Adding anything to the water, including salts, oils, soaps, or bath products of any kind, is strictly prohibited and may result in a cleaning fee. The Wet Room includes a 4-foot deep pool; the depth requires awareness, particularly for those who are less confident in deeper water. All bath entry points have handrails. Handheld shower heads are provided in the Wet Room, historic baths, and in-room baths to assist rinsing.
Pregnant women and visitors with cardiovascular conditions, high blood pressure, or other relevant medical concerns should consult a physician before using mineral baths.
