Sedative
Dr Kellogg says...
Sedatives
... are beneficial only when well borne. Weakness after the bath, secondary chill, headache, and nervousness are evidence of too low a temperature or too prolonged an application; or incase the hot bath has been employed, the indication is that the hot application was too intense or prolonged, or that the concluding cold application was not employed for a sufficient length of time to obliterate the exciting effects of the heat
