Counterstimulation is a treatment for pain, based on distraction. A basic example is the practice of rubbing a fresh bruise, so that attention is paid to the sense of touch and pressure, rather than to the pain of the injury. Liniment works in the same way, producing sensations such as heat or cold. Counterstimulation can also be applied to a remote part of the body. Pain control can also be achieved by the use of electronic media, such as television or virtual reality .

According to one 19th century druggist s book, oils used in the preparation included train oil that is, whale oil or the oil of the blubber of another marine mammal oil of turpentine oil of bricks , the oil obtained by the distillation of pieces of brick saturated with rapeseed oil or olive oil http www.mspong.org cyclopedia distillation.html oil of amber spirit of camphor Barbados tar , a kind of greenish petroleum found in Barbados oil of vitriol that is, sulfuric acid However, it is certain that many nine oils preparations did not contain these ingredients, and in fact it is possible that the name nine oils never referred to any specific combination of compounds.

Comstock, circa 1905 Dr. Morse s Indian Root Pills was one of the most successful and enduring products to be manufactured and marketed in North America as part of the lucrative patent medicine industry, which thrived during most of the 19th and 20th centuries. Its manufacturer claimed the pills contained herbal ingredients that would help cleanse the blood, as impurity of the blood was believed to be the cause of all disease. History Image DrMorseIndianRootPills.JPG thumb Advertisement for Dr Morse s Indian Root Pills near Morpeth, New South Wales , Australia Dr. Morse s Indian Root Pills have their genesis in William Henry Comstock s father, Edwin P. Comstock, who founded a drug company in New York City in 1833. The Comstock patent medicine business was involved in the sale of a number of successful drugs, including Carlton s Pile Liniment, Oldridge s Balm of Columbia, Kline s Tooth Ache Drops and Judson s Worm Tea. Between 1833 and the time of the acquisition of the rights to Dr. Morse s Indian Root Pills, the company remained under the control of the Comstocks through the additional involvement of Edwin s brothers Lucius, Albert Lee, John Carlton and George Wells. The Indian Root Pills were first formulated and manufactured in 1854 by Andrew B. Moore , who was then operating under the name A.B. Moore in Buffalo, New York . Rights to the pills were then transferred through a number of different business partnerships under the control of Moore, Andrew J. White, Baldwin L. Judson, George Wells Comstock and his nephew, William Henry Comstock . These reorganizations all occurred amid numerous disputes and lawsuits. During that long period of instability, the manufacturing operations moved from Buffalo, New York Buffalo to New York City and then to dual sites on opposite sides of the St. Lawrence River, one at Brockville, Ontario and the other at Morristown, New York.
