	Bathing machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Especially in Britain, men and women wishing to enjoy the sea were usually segregated into separate areas, so that nobody of the opposite sex might catch sight of them in their bathing suits, which (although extremely modest by more modern standards) were not considered proper clothing to be seen in by the general public.
		Bathing machines would often be equipped with a small flag which could be raised by the bather as a signal to the driver that they were ready to return to shore.
		Bathing machines were most common in the United Kingdom and parts of the British Empire with a sizable British population, but were also used at beaches in France, Germany, the United States, and some other nations.

	Guardian Century \| 1899-1909 \| How to dress in the water
		The solitary advantage enjoyed by French over English sea baths resolves itself into the tub of hot water supplied at the former, for which one has to pay twice over, first in the form of a ticket and secondly in that of a tip.
		In France the quality of the bathing dress is higher than in England, though I have seen as ugly visions at Boulogne as at Folkestone, and as charming ones at Folkestone as at Boulogne.
		For bathing in public a dress has to contain so much material that its texture, since it is to be saturated with water, becomes of the first importance.

	Dead Sea skin care
		Dead Sea Therapy proved to be of value in treating a number of dermatological, rheumatological and pulmonary diseases, especially psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteo-arthritis, and asthma.
		The Dead Sea treatment of psoriasis is based on a gradual increase of sun-exposure, combined with bathing in the Dead Sea and the application of mild ointments to the skin: skin softeners, lubricating preparations (emollients) such as body oils or vaseline, mild ointments to containing tar, sulfur and salicylic acids or other ingredients.

	CPI Guide Chapter 3.2
		When carrying out large scale epidemiological studies of the effects of bathing in sewage contaminated water, the main problem is coping with the very large number of variables which can affect the rates of illness.
		If the activity and water monitoring programme is very tightly controlled, perhaps by specifying exactly what activity each volunteer undertakes, and in what location in relation to the water sampling point, then the variability is reduced, and it may be possible to obtain statistically valid results from a relatively small sample of participants.
		Alternatively if variability in bathing activity is allowed (to simulate real life) then a very large number of participants will be required to produce statistically valid results.
