Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a method for treating nerve prostration and hysteria connected with uterine disease. It emerged from the author's interest in the work of an American physician, Dr. Weir Mitchell, who had successfully treated a group of these patients by removing them from their unhealthy domestic environments, feeding them large amounts of food, and providing them with massage and electricity. The author describes the treatment and its principles in detail, and provides a series of case studies to illustrate its effectiveness. He emphasizes that the treatment is most successful when the patient is completely isolated from her family and friends, and when she is placed in the care of a competent nurse who can provide the necessary support and encouragement. The author concludes by suggesting that this treatment offers a valuable alternative to the radical surgical procedures that were often used to treat these conditions in the past.
