Excerpt from The Physiological, Pathological and Therapeutical Effects of Compressed Air
Dr. Henshaw, an English physician, published an essay in 1664, in which he proposed to treat diseases by varying the pressure Of the atmosphere by which the patient was surrounded. His idea was to have a room (domiciliam) constructed of masonry, and made air-tight, in which the Sick person could remain in an atmosphere which was to be either rarefied or con densed by the action Of an organ bellows.
