The branch of medicine using specific climates or climate conditions to treat diseases and improve health.
From climate plus Greek therapeutikos (healing/treatment) plus -ics. This term describes both the field and the therapeutic practices using climate.
Doctors used to (and some still do!) send sick patients to sunny mountain climates or seaside resorts believing the climate itself could heal them—climatotherapeutics is the medical science behind that idea.
