What is leeching?
Leeching was an often proscribed treatment in the 1800's. Doctors thought it would cure you of "bad blood". So, they would give you a leech and you were to let it suck your blood several times a day. Once the leech is done (after it looses its grip because it is so full) you put it back in the jar. The doctors were all wrong though the leeches were sucking the good, vital blood not, the bad blood. David Barton (Clara Barton's older brother) was proscribed leeching after he fell from the rafters of a barn and had continuous fevers and headaches.
