About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Hydrotherapy: A Guide to the Application of Water in Disease, for Students and Practitioners of Medicine

It will surely inure to the progress and development of hydro therapy, i. E. The scientific application of water in disease, if this false conception of its being a cold-water treatment be removed from the minds of the profession and the people. There seems to exist in the human mind a strong feeling of repulsion against cold baths, wet packs, and other hydriatric procedures. The former conjure up in the mind of the timid practitioner vague apprehensions of Shock and heart failure; the latter remind him of damp sheets bearing rheumatism and colds in their train. The reader who shall follow these pages will find in them ample illustrations of the untenability and the absurdity of such views.
