The
Hysterical Woman
Early in the 20th century women were often diagnosed with
hysteria or neurasthenia and advised to seek medical treatment. Doctors often
prescribed vibratory treatments to control the condition. It's no surprise that
women were quite pleased when companies such as Sears and the Lindstrom Smith
Company began advertising home vibrators in many of the ladies' almanacs and journals
of the early 1900's.
