You Won’t Believe These Old “Treatments”

Can you imagine doctors once drilled holes in skulls or spun patients until they puked—all in the name of mental health?

Hydrotherapy (think ice baths, not spa days) Rotational therapy (spinning chairs of doom) Makes you grateful for modern medicine, right? Which one shocked you most? #MentalHealthHistory #MedicalFacts #DidYouKnow #Health #MentalHealth
