Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A water cure is a course of medical treatment by hydrotherapy.

Indeed, while the torture sense of the term water cure was by 1900-1902 established in the American army, with a conscious sense of irony, this sense was not in widespread use. Webster''s 1913 dictionary cited only the therapeutic sense, water cure being synonymous with hydropathy, the term by which hydrotherapy was known in the 1800s and early 1900s.
