Unani
Unani is a traditional system of medicine that originated in ancient Greece and was later developed in the Islamic world. It is based on the teachings of Hippocrates and Galen, focusing on the balance of bodily humors—blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile. Unani practitioners believe that health is achieved through the harmony of these humors, and they use various natural remedies, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications to promote well-being.
The practice of Unani medicine includes diagnostic techniques such as pulse examination and urine analysis. Treatments often involve herbal medicines, dietary recommendations, and therapeutic practices like Hijama (cupping). Unani is recognized in several countries and is integrated into modern healthcare systems, emphasizing holistic approaches to health and disease prevention.
