The Cure:
In the 19th century people had great confidence in the power of bathing in mineral water to cure arthritis, rheumatism and skin complaints, and to improve conditions as diverse as gout, impotence, obesity, haemorrhoids, liver disorders and eye problems. Drinking mineral water was generally considered to improve digestive disorders, but it occasionally recommended for insomnia, goitre and even syphilis.
Bathing or drinking was the most common ways to ‘take the waters’. But people also inhaled steam, wallowed in hot mud, or were given massage or douche (spray) baths, especially at larger spas such as Rotorua. Government medical officers advised on the curative properties of different kinds of water, and their supervised treatments.
Hospitals and Sanatoriums:
The main spas generally had a sanatorium for invalids, and sometimes a hospital. A sanatorium was build for invalids too poor to pay for private boarding houses or hotels at Rotorua in 1885. It was replaced after it burnt down in 1888, and at last closed in 1947. Hanmer’s sanatorium was built in 1897 and replace in 1908, but it burnt down in 1914.
In the First World War, convalescent hospitals were built at Rotorua and Hanmer for returned servicemen; the Health Department took them over during the year of 1920s and 1930s. Hanmer’s hospital became Queen Mary Hospital, and the thermal waters were used to comfort people with rheumatism and other problems. From the 1940s, yet, the hospital focused on nervous disorders and detoxification of alcoholics. Rotorua’s hospital specialized in orthopaedics from the 1920s, and another services hospital there, built during the Second World War, was the predecessor of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (now called QE Health), which treat rheumatic diseases.
