Priessnitz's single-phase and double-phase half-bath

This is a complex procedure combining hydrotherapy, wraps, pouring water and skin brushing. The client is first briefly pre-heated by warm water in a shower. This is followed by a whole-body wrap using a cold wet sheet and the wrapped person lying down calmly. After subsequently warming up and sweating, there comes a warm water semi-bath at 35 °C with brushing and pouring cold water over the nape of the neck, back and legs.
