Condition A-: abrasions in image.
The work of Nikola Tesla and George
Lakhovsky (who invented the MWO-multi
wave oscillator) was admired and accepted in
France, and the use of electricity for aiding all
sorts of ailments was widespread. Electrotherapy
kits for home use, such as those produced by
Vitalis, were sold in sets that came in their own
cases with separate attachments suited to treat
different parts of the body. Such electrotherapy
kits were prevalent in America until they were
banned in the 1930s.
