It helps to spend time away from the spooky ghosts haunting the manor.
I could go for that right now

Mine still does, in fact that’s the only thing he actually prescribes. Well, he recommends walking in the mountains, but that’s because seaside is 8 hours away but mountains are only 30 minutes.

“Take a trip to the seaside, it’ll cure what ails you.” “Doctor, I cannot afford that.” “Leeches it is then!”

Dunno, I have been prescribed times in rehab clinics and there are such clinics in seaside locations.

Man goes to doctor. Says the town is rundown and depressing with major heroin problem. Doctor says treatment is simple: “go to famous seaside town Blackpool. That should pick you up.” Man bursts into tears. “But Doctor, this is Blackpool!”

“not to romanticize the medical practices of the early 1900s”, but let’s romanticize fixing your depression with a seaside prescription.
What is this idiotic post?

In Czechia they still prescribe visits to the spa

The water vapor or the software?

TBF I’m not a woman and I’m still disillusioned. The amount of times I’ve heard from doctors more or less verbatim “I don’t know what to do” … might as well prescribe recreational drugs and tell me to goon.

Oh, if I was picking something for an old timey doctor to prescribe me it would probably be laudanum

Or heroin, the new, non addictive cough medicine!
And anything with radium, of course.
zeppo@lemmy.world 17 hours ago My dad’s doctor actually did! He said since it seemed there were problems with feeling oxygen deprived, and we lived at high altitude, try taking a visit to the ocean.

Former owners of the company my partner works at have a host of health issues. They spend a lot of time on the seaside because it alleviates some of it. But also from firsthand experience I know how much it can help.

A GP (doctor) once recommended walking in nature - something to do with fractals being pleasing to the eye - and now many years later I really do appreciate how much I enjoy and feel energised after walking in nature.
He also probably prescribed some chemicals.
