The vibrator was originally intended as a medical instrument used to treat female hysteria.
Details:
This tool, designed around 1860, was used to treat a wide variety of illnesses such as insanity and female hysteria, and avoid asylum internment.
The principle was very simple: a table with a vibrating ball in its centre, a coal motorisation or pedals and an experimented manipulator.
After a few sessions required to try out several settings, the patient recovered and was fully satisfied.
