LEYSIN PATIENTS.
In the following table will be found a full account of the Leysin patients. The main question in all these
sun cures is one of permanence, and it will be seen that, so far, the experiment of sending patients to Leysin has
been fully justified. There is no doubt that an occasional visit to our solarium, especially in the winter time,
is most useful in preventing relapses.
