Book Description

Excerpt from The Sanative Influence of Climate: With an Account of the Best Places of Resort for Invalids, in England, the South of Europe, C If such marked effects result from a change of so limited a nature as has just been noticed, it might be expected that a complete change of climate, together with the circumstances necessarily connected with it, should produce still more important results in the improvement of health and the alleviation and cure of disease. In this expectation also we are borne out by experience. Unfortunately for the character of Climate as a remedy, it has too often been resorted to as a last resource, and not unfrequently been misapplied in cases wherein it would otherwise have been capable of yielding essential service. Patients who might derive much benefit from climate are Often sent abroad without proper directions regarding the situa tion most suited to their complaints, and altogether uninstructed respecting various circumstances, a due attention to which is necessary to give full effect to the best-selected Climate.
