At the historic The Old Soma Residence
A quiet wellness experience, just for yourselves.
The Old Soma Residence, which has marked a long time as the residence of the Soma family that supported the development of Hakodate.
The setting for this experience is not a typical treatment room in a spa facility. It is a wellness program unique to The Old Soma Residence, where one can immerse themselves in the historical architecture and savor its tranquility and atmosphere.
Escape from the sounds of everyday life and immerse your body in a space layered with history. While feeling the quiet passage of time in the buildings and the view of Hakodate outside the window, you can enjoy a moment that is free from any interruptions.

Overview of Activities

Fir, flowers, and warm stones
A ritual to experience the nature of Hokkaido with all five senses
The treatment includes oil made from Hokkaido's Todomatsu, as well as seasonal flowers and plants, incorporating materials that evoke the essence of the northern land.
A refreshing scent reminiscent of the forest, the warmth of herbs, and the sensation of the therapist's hands.
In the 180-minute 'Yu' experience, original herbal balls reflecting the four seasons of Hakodate and 'Soma Mon Onsen Stones' inspired by the Soma family crest are used. The current nature of Hokkaido and the history inscribed in this estate overlap in a single experience.
It is a time to not only receive treatment but also to immerse oneself in the essence of Hakodate, engaging all five senses with scents, temperatures, plants, and the surrounding space.

The nature of Hokkaido and the prayers of Bali come together.
Wellness rituals you can only find here
The experience quietly begins with a 'prayer foot ritual' using rice, leaves of the Abies sachalinensis, and seasonal flowers.
The background of this is the prayer culture of Bali, which PUAMANA has cherished. By aligning our hearts with gratitude and wishes, we direct our awareness towards the time that is about to begin.
Surrounded by the nature of Hokkaido, healed by the history of Hakodate, and enveloped by prayers inherited from different lands.
It is a ritual not only to relax the body while traveling but also to reconnect with the memories and nature of the land, in order to regain one's own senses.
