Etymology of Hellmuthia:
For Hellmuth Steudel (1816–1886), doctor of medicine and surgery at the hydropathy establishment in Esslingen near Kennenburg, son of German botanist and physician Ernest Gottlieb von Steudel (1783–1856). He maintained that health depended upon the proper use of water, fresh air, exercise, proper diet and washing for cleanliness. He advocated the use of cold water to reduce temperature and fever (Quarterly Homeopathic Journal, Volume 1, 1849). He wrote Die Medizinische Praxis, Ihre Illusionen und ihr Streben zur Gewissheit (Medical Practice, Their Illusions and the Quest for Certainty) (1853), Praktik der Heilgymnastik (Practice of Physiotherapy) (1860), and Der Nihilismus, Das Einzig Wahre in Der Medizin (Nihilism, the One Truth in Medicine) (1887) with Paul Niemeyer.
