[[File:Öldispersionsbadeapparat.JPG|thumbnail|Oil dispersion bath apparatus|link=https://de.imedwiki.org/wiki/Datei:%C3%96ldispersionsbadeapparat.JPG|alt=]]The oil dispersion bathing apparatus is a pear-shaped glass device that swirls incoming water and adds oil, sucked in from an inserted pipette, drop by drop to the outgoing water at the point of the vortex's highest rotational speed. This development was a synthesis of various ideas that Werner Junge had formed from his own observations and research, based on the knowledge of Rudolf Steiner's data and the scientific writings of Goethe.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Das Öldispersionsbad nach Werner Junge eine Hydrotherapie als Körpertherapie der Anthroposophischen Medizin.

*A 2008 systematic literature review<ref name=":1" /> found a small number of studies (1 prospective clinical study, 3 experimental studies with healthy subjects, 5 case reports, and 3 experience reports). The studies described improvement in almost all cases, although the methodological quality of most studies was weak. The main indications were metabolic/internal, and psychiatric/neurologic.
