In Greece there are the ruins of a bathtub and water system built over 3, 000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some as many as 3, 000 persons could bathe at the same time.　　Treating disease by bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing or hydrotherapy, first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700’s also became popular in the United States.　　For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for one’s health. Ordinary bathing just to be clean was avoided and perfume（香水）was often used to cover up body smells ！　　By the 1770’s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be cleaned. Slowly people began to bathe more frequently.

Some people bathe once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential to good health.　　60．In G
