Description
GIBSON, C. J. -- Plaintiffs, husband and wife, brought this action for damages for personal injuries suffered by the wife (hereinafter called plaintiff) from the "explosion" of an electric therapeutic light bulb. Defendant, a licensed chiropractor, had been treating plaintiff for arthritis and neuritis over a number of years. The treatment consisted in part of exposure to the rays of certain therapeutic lamps in defendants office. While taking one of these treatments plaintiff lay on a table with her back bared and exposed to a lamp which defendant had fixed in a position about two and one-half feet above her. Defendant then left the room, leaving plaintiff unattended. After she had been under the light about fifteen minutes, the bulb broke or exploded without warning, the hot glass falling upon plaintiffs back and other parts of her body causing severe injuries.
