Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; perhaps modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: metallo- comb. form, therapy n.

Etymology: < metallo- comb. form + therapy n., perhaps after French métallothérapie (1853 or earlier; compare note below). Compare German Metallotherapie (1854 in a translation from French).Compare also the earlier formation metallo-therapia, apparently translating French:1852 Zoist 10 121 (heading) Nervous affections. Metallo-therapia, or metal-cure: new properties of metals illustrated through mesmerism, by Dr. Burq, of Paris. Translated and communicated by Dr. Elliotson.

Medicine. Now historical.

The use of metals to treat disease (esp. conversion disorders).
