EDITORS COMMENTS
The Thermal Spa Baths at Dax, France: A (Rather Apprehensive!) Woman Contemplates the Approach of the Douche à Vapeur The image captures a moment of hesitation and anticipation at the Thermal Spa Baths in Dax, France, circa 1920s. The woman, dressed in a shower cap and holding a towel, stands near the edge of a large pool, her gaze fixed on the approaching Douche à Vapeur – a device used for hydrotherapy, delivering a jet of hot steam water. The thermal spa baths in Dax have been renowned for their therapeutic properties since ancient Roman times. The mineral-rich waters, believed to have healing powers, have attracted visitors from all over Europe for centuries. The baths were particularly popular during the 19th and early 20th centuries, when hydrotherapy gained widespread popularity as a treatment for various ailments. The Douche à Vapeur, an essential component of the hydrotherapy regimen, was believed to provide numerous health benefits, including pain relief, improved circulation, and relaxation. However, the woman in the photograph appears to be feeling anything but relaxed as she contemplates the approaching jet of steamy water. Her furrowed brow and tense posture speak volumes about her apprehension and uncertainty. The intricate pipework and pressure valves of the Douche à Vapeur are visible in the background, adding to the industrial and clinical atmosphere of the baths. The attendant, standing nearby, seems to be ready to assist the woman, but she remains wary, taking a deep breath before stepping closer to the device. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, capturing the raw emotions and anticipation of a hydrotherapy session at the Thermal Spa Baths in Dax, France, during the 1920s.
