EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures a fascinating glimpse into the early days of medical therapy in the 19th century. The image showcases an "Electric Light Bath" at the Bilz Sanatorium in Berlin, where patients would undergo a unique treatment involving copious perspiration to promote increased assimilation - believed to be efficacious in cases of gout and asthma.
The concept of using electric light as a form of therapy may seem unconventional by today's standards, but during this time period, alternative treatments were often sought after for various disorders. This early sun bed served as a precursor to modern-day electrotherapy, offering patients a novel approach to healing.
As we reflect on the history of medicine and its evolution over time, it is both intriguing and somewhat sad to see how far we have come in terms of medical advancements. The Bilz Sanatorium was at the forefront of innovative therapies that aimed to promote health and well-being through unconventional means.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library serves as a reminder of our ongoing quest for effective treatments and cures, shedding light on the diverse approaches taken throughout history to address medical conditions. It is truly remarkable to witness how far we have progressed in our understanding and application of medicine since the days when electric light baths were considered cutting-edge therapy.
