Enoch Heinrich Kisch

Enoch Heinrich Kisch (6 May 1841 – 1918) was an Austrian balneologist and gynecologist born in Prague.

He studied medicine in Prague, and in 1863 began work as a balneologist in Marienbad, where he was instrumental in developing the site as a popular spa and resort.

He also provided information on balneotherapeutics to the System of Physiologic Therapeutics, a publication based in Philadelphia.

In addition to balneology, he conducted extensive research in the fields of gynecology and female sexuality.

One of his better known books was translated into English in 1910 with the title The Sexual Life of Woman in its Physiological, Pathological and Hygienic Aspects.
