Gauffe Baths

Gauffel is a German word that means "bath shilling" or "honorable". Gauff bath is an invention of the German scientist Joseph Gauffel. This was in the 19th century. Gauff baths were developed in the 1930s. The original purpose of his invention was to improve human function. Now the use of this bath is not entirely recommended and has contraindications.

The main idea of ​​Gauffer's invention is to create an artificial heat source for the entire body; this source should be stably installed at the level of the heart and located at a distance of five fingers from the roots of the hair. The bath had to have four additional parts, each of which directed a special stream of air: two arms and two legs. A stream of warm air was directed through each part of the bath and heated the water for the patient. The nurse controlled the flow of air with three metal paddles using various taps.

Now many people say that this bath could have a better effect on the functioning of internal organs, but since the body has a complex structure of hair and other structures, other baths were invented. For example, they can pass more water, and also direct air jets in several streams
