Vincenz Priessnitz

Vincent Priessnitz ook wel Vincent Prießnitz (soms in het Duits Vinzenz, in het Engels Vincent, in het Tsjechisch Vincenc (4 oktober 1799 - 28 november 1851 ) was een boer in Gräfenberg (tegenwoordig Lázně Jeseník), Oostenrijks Silezië, die begin 1800 faam maakte door vele zieken te genezen met koudwatercompressen in combinatie met ademhalingsoefeningen en een dieet.
