"Sea-Air and Sea-Bathing: Their Influence on Health" is a practical guide intended for visitors to the seaside, written by Charles Parsons. Published in 1877, this volume explores the purported health benefits of the coastal environment, focusing on the therapeutic effects of sea air and sea bathing.
Parsons delves into the various ways that exposure to the seaside can positively impact one's well-being, offering advice and insights that reflect the medical understandings of the late 19th century. This work provides a fascinating glimpse into the historical approaches to health and wellness, highlighting the once-popular belief in the restorative powers of the sea.
Though medical science has evolved, "Sea-Air and Sea-Bathing" remains a valuable historical document, offering a unique perspective on the cultural and medical practices of a bygone era. It will be of interest to readers interested in the history of medicine, coastal life, and 19th-century health practices.
