metallotherapy(n.)
“金属外敷治疗疾病”,始见于1856年,源自 metallon,即 metal(n.)和 therapy 的希腊词根。
First formulated as a system by Burq in 1848, and hence often called Burqism, it has been recently revived by Charcot. Simple disks of various metals are employed in contact with the external parts of the body, from which different therapeutic results are claimed. Other observers assert that all the phenomena described as following the application of metals may be produced by disks of wood, and that whatever curative results are attained are due to mental effects, rather than to any special virtues emanating from the metals themselves. [Century Dictionary, 1895]
该系统最初由 Burq 于1848年提出,因此常被称为 Burqism,最近被 Charcot 重新提出。使用不同金属的简单圆盘与身体外部接触,声称可以产生不同的治疗效果。其他观察者则声称,所有描述为金属应用后产生的现象都可以通过木制圆盘产生,并且所获得的任何治疗效果都是由于心理效应而非金属本身的特殊功效。[《世纪词典》,1895年]
