TerminatingTonic Bath or Children
The cool or cold wet-hand rub is the best tonic application to use for children after the sun-bath, though the sponge or wet-towel rub may also be used, especially with older children. After the age of adolescence has begun, practically any tonic application suitable for adults may be used, provided it is not made too severe or of too long duration and care is taken to insure prompt and complete reaction, which will not be difficult when effective sun-baths can be taken.
