In Korea, it can be said that hot spring therapy, which has been used since ancient times, was used to improve the quality of life through hot spring baths. However, in modern times, there is a big difference in the use of hot spring therapy. The use and purpose of hot spring therapy, the expected efficacy, and effect analysis and research must be a research project that must be continued in the future, but hot spring therapy, which has already been used throughout the history of 1,000 years, has transformed into a bath culture called Seshin. The purpose of this study is to establish it as a type of better quality of life and preventive medical management of public health using hot spring therapy, a natural resource. In previous studies in Korea, hot spring therapy and a survey method of quality of life for actual hot spring facility users have not been seen until now, and research was focused on those who have experienced hot spring sites or those who visited hot spring areas. This study has different characteristics from previous studies in that it investigates the effect of hot spring therapy on health and quality of life by properly supplementing the lack of survey methods at home and abroad, focusing on changes in health conditions and quality of life questions of hot spring facility users. In this study, we tried to find out how the number of hot spring uses affects the quality of life by mediating health conditions. The number of hot spring uses was used as an exogenous variable, and health status and quality of life were used as endogenous variables. Through preliminary analysis, health status was divided into three factors: mental health, physical health, and social health. As a result of the hypothesis verification, the verification of the hypothesis was confirmed that the number of hot spring uses affects mental health, physical health, and social health. In order to apply the use of hot spring and the improvement of health conditions to daily life, it should lead to various studies such as understanding the current status of hot spring water nationwide, analyzing its efficacy, and actively using preventive medicine.
