Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health, and Health Resorts Whilst there can be no doubt as to the efficacy of mineral springs and baths in relieving suffering and restoring lost health to persons affected by curable diseases, it is equally true that for the sub jects of grave and far-advanced maladies they, can afford but little hope; and in view Of this fact, I have devoted a considerable portion of this work to a portrayal of the inconveniences, sufferings and disappointments that always await an incurable in valid in a foreign land.

Book Florida and South Carolina as Health Resorts  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Florida and South Carolina as Health Resorts Classic Reprint written by William W. Morland and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Florida and South Carolina as Health Resorts The constantly increasing travel of invalids to southern latitudes every year more and more arrests our attention, and it need hardly be said, in this presence, that this crusade after health is too frequently begun at the wrong time, imperfectly carried out when rightly begun, and, in very many instances, brought to a premature termination. Whether an invalid - and especially a pulmonary invalid - should go from home at all, should be left implicitly to his physician to determine, who, in addition to careful reflections upon the nature and stage of the malady, will do wisely to inform himself as to the "surroundings" awaiting his patient in the proposed place of his temporary sojourn, and also to assure himself of his ability to command comforts and attention when among strangers. It is worse than useless for those who have not means sufficient to be Well cared for, to leave their homes - the invalid cannot "rough it." Not every place where people get well from time to time, deserves the name of health-resort. No more - indeed, very often - than the earth-bath about which we were told, not long since, wherein, somewhere "out West," six victims of scurvy were buried, "up to their necks," and left over night.

Book Austrian Health Resorts

Download or read book Austrian Health Resorts written by W. Fraser Rae and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austrian Health Resorts: Throughout the Year Chapters XIV. and XV. in this Edition have been added in place of the Chapter in the first on "The Bitter Waters of Hungary." Thus the present Edition of this book treats exclusively of noteworthy places in the Empire of Austria, many of which are seldom visited by Englishmen or Americans, and are scarcely known to them even by repute. Yet each deserves to be visited by those who journey in quest of health or variety. An invalid requiring a course of mineral waters may go to Carlsbad, Franzensbad, Marienbad, or some other Austrian Health Resort in the spring, summer, or autumn; another, to whom the grape "cure" is prescribed, may visit Voslau or Meran in the autumn; the invalid who desires sea bathing in perfection can enjoy it for several months out of the twelve at Abbazia; while any one who is in quest of a mild and pleasant winter climate may find it at Meran, or Arco, Abbazia, or Gorizia. I may add, with confidence and perfect truth, that the geniality of the people lends an additional charm to all the Health Resorts in the Empire of Austria.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Resorts: With Notes Upon Their Climate If we, as a people, would more generally seek health in our own sanitaria, and our medical men would encourage their patients so to do, the value of these places of retreat for health would soon be appreciated and their fame become widespread. For the American, the health stations in his own land are preferable in that while he is seeking benefit in a change of climate, he is at home among his own countrymen, familiar customs, language and diet, a truly inestimable advantage in many cases of sickness.

Book Health Resorts of the British Islands  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Health Resorts of the British Islands Classic Reprint written by Neville Wood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Resorts of the British Islands Both in purpose and plan there are several points of differ ence in the present volume. It has had its origin in the belief that there was room for a work on the model of those manuals published on the Continent, in which health resorts as such, and matters of interest in relation to them, are the subjects exclusively dealt with. It was thought not only that such a publication might prove of service to the medical profession at home, but that it was time for some effort to secure inter national recognition for British health resorts. To aid in bringing their advantages to the notice of foreign physicians has, in fact, been a main object of these pages, arrangements for a French edition of which are in progress. As best serving the ends in view, attention has been focused on the principal resorts, those of minor importance being either briefly dealt with or entirely omitted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Resorts and Their Uses: Being Vacation Studies in Various Health Resorts The following studies of various Health Resorts have afforded me a congenial occupation during several of my annual holidays, and have most of them appeared, from time to time, in the pages of The Fortnightly Review or in the columns of The Times newspaper. It has often been suggested to me by those, the correctness of whose judgment I could not doubt, that they would prove of some value and usefulness if they were republished in a collected form; in adopting this suggestion I have been careful to revise all these studies thoroughly, and to rewrite parts of most of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Resorts of the Salt River Valley in Arizona: Including Prescott, Jerome and Castle Creek Hot Springs Are your lungs weak? Have you a troublesome cough? Is your throat disagreeably affected by each change of weather? Are your nerves unstrung? If thus afflicted, try the "climate cure," which consists of taking up one's residence in a place where the air is dry, pure, warm and equable, and where proper medical attendance and nursing may be had if needed. Nature is the best of physicians when conditions are friendly. Where shall one go for friendly conditions? The best place in this country, and perhaps the best in the world, is the Rocky Mountain region of Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and California. Some localities in that immense uplift of the earth's crust are better than others. The Salt River Valley, in the south-central Arizona, takes high rank among the districts where lung and throat troubles can be relieved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principal Southern and Swiss Health Resorts: Their Climate and Medical Aspect ON my return to London, after Spending three winter seasons at Nice and six at Cannes, engaged in medical practice, it occurred to me that the experience I had acquired of the in uence of southern climates on invalids might form the main subject of a book not altogether wanting in medical and public utility. A Visit to Madeira and the Canary Islands afforded me an opportunity of inquiring into the character of these stations as health resorts, while a long acquaintance with many of the places in Switzerland, patronised by invalids in search of health, has enabled me to include them also in the present work. The Village of Davos, situated in one of the highest Swiss valleys, has earned for itself a well-deserved reputation as a winter sani tarium for the treatment of consumption, and an account of this station will be found in the following.

Book Florida As a Health Resort  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Florida As a Health Resort Classic Reprint written by Frederick D. Lente and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-25 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Florida as a Health-Resort And crystal lakes. A study of most of the works on Florida, from that of Le Moyne, who visited the territory as artist to the French expedition under Laudonniere in 1564, and the Bartrams, who visited it as naturalists in 1772, to the latest publications, including periodicals, pamphlets, and' newspa pers; access to all the records bearing upon the subject in the possession of the War Department, the library of the Surgeon General, and other depositories in Washington; a careful col lation of the various meteorological and other tables included in these records; personal interviews with distinguished medi cal officers of the army, who have served in all parts of Flor ida, and with many of the scientific and medical residents of the State, with some of her representatives in Congress; and, lastly, the opportunity for consulting a considerable number of the thousands of intelligent visitors and invalids, who passed through, or located for the season at the writer's winter residence, have afforded him unusual facilities for unraveling' the intricacies of the subject so graphically described by Scoresby Jackson. The last source of information, as regards the relative merits of various climates, he considers of more value than all the others, more so than even an extended per sonal observation. For invalids are by far the best judges of climate; they are living barometers and hygrometers. Here, you have the opportunity to question and cross-question the reporters, and not only thus to arrive at the truth, but, what the books seldom give, the whole truth. All of these indi viduals were intelligent and educated people, most of them invalids who had traveled the world over in search of health, and tested its renowned sanitary resorts, some of them winter after winter. Few of them had any particular prejudice for or against any special locality, save from its actual effect, but were, from self-interest, in search of the best.
