From aero- (air) + hydro- (water) + therapy (treatment). This 19th-century medical term reflected the belief that both elements together produced therapeutic benefits.
Victorian doctors prescribed aerohydrotherapy at seaside resort towns—combining ocean air with salt water baths—and interestingly, patients often did feel better because the rest, fresh air, and mineral salts genuinely helped!
