93in addition, a change of locale and climate is beneficial. So also is an acrid diet from time to time. Vomiting may also be induced both directly and with the use of radishes. Also apply various local remedies to the various parts of the body, especially to the middle parts. For the presence of atrophy in the body is inevitably attended by severe injury to the parts that are concerned with digestion. Therefore, apply pitch plasters frequently to these parts; and likewise cupping treatments, intense heat, mustard plasters, sharp dusting powders (Greek sympasmata, Latin aspergines), and emollient plasters of similar properties. 94Again, a boat trip along the shore and swimming in the sea or in natural springs are helpful; also mental diversion (Greek diachysis) after meals, and clasping of the patient’s limbs by attendants with soft hands.
