Vincent Priessnitz : ウィキペディア英語版 | Vincenz Priessnitz
Vincenz Priessnitz, also written Prießnitz (sometimes in German ''Vinzenz'', in English ''Vincent'', in Czech ''Vincenc''; 4 October 1799 – 26 November 1851) was a peasant farmer in Gräfenberg, Austrian Silesia, who is generally considered the founder of modern hydrotherapy, which is used in alternative and orthodox medicine. Priessnitz stressed remedies such as suitable food, air, exercise, rest and water, over conventional medicine.〔〔〔 He is thus also credited with laying the foundations of what became known as Nature Cure,〔 although it has been noted that his main focus was on hydrotherapeutic techniques.〔 Priessnitz's name first became widely known in the English-speaking world through the publications and lecture tours of Captain R. T. Claridge in 1842 and 1843, after he had stayed at Grafenberg in 1841.〔〔 However, Priessnitz was already a household name on the European continent, where Richard Metcalfe, in his 1898 biography, stated: "there are hundreds of establishments where the water-cure is carried out on the principles laid down by Priessnitz".〔 Indeed, Priessnitz's fame became so widespread that his death was reported in the as far away as New Zealand.〔 == Biography ==
