The book ""The Fundamental Principles of Mechanico-Therapy in Hip Disease"" was written by Milton Josiah Roberts and originally published in 1885. The book focuses on the use of mechanico-therapy, or the application of mechanical force to the body, as a treatment for hip disease. Roberts outlines the basic principles of mechanico-therapy and how it can be applied specifically to hip disease. He discusses the importance of proper alignment and support of the hip joint, as well as the use of various devices and techniques to promote healing and alleviate pain. The book also includes case studies and testimonials from patients who have undergone mechanico-therapy treatment for hip disease, providing real-world examples of its effectiveness. Overall, ""The Fundamental Principles of Mechanico-Therapy in Hip Disease"" is a comprehensive guide to a specific type of therapy that was popular in the late 19th century. While some of the techniques and devices described in the book may be outdated, it remains a valuable historical resource for those interested in the history of medical treatments.Based On A Consideration Of Clinical, Pathological And Physico-Physiological Data, With A Description Of New Forms Of Elastic Tension Hip Splints.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
