Old faradism machine

[Graham R]

Thanks gcoe & physiobob
That site is excellent although I had already seen a similar collection of
H. G. Fischer machines elsewhere, a company with a truly amazing history.
I suppose the nearest looking thing I have found is the two floor-
standing models at the bottom of this page

but no nodding-donkey / coke-bottle rheostat!

Interesting that the brochure is dated 1953, that would be the year my Dad
set up his practice, but I always assumed that any expensive equipment would have been second-hand, times were hard then, and my parents had just got married bought their house and had me!

1. I would have been 6 or 7 when he Ceased practicing from home and his treatment couch was replaced by an upright piano, and the frosted glass in the front room windows were replaced with clear.

Also those machines in the brochure are described as low-voltage therapy,
I suppose that is broadly "faradism", I imagine that term is old-fashioned now.

Just another childish memory in passing; on one piece of equipment, possibly an infra-red lamp, the highest setting on the control knob was not "MAX" but "OUCH!"

Best Regards, Graham.
