Tārīkh-i pizishkī i.e., Medical History

Abstract

So far, no significant research has been done on the medical history of Iran as required by its depth and breadth; Their background, opinions, theories, experiences, and methods of treatment also remain strange and unknown.

The Iranian School of Traditional Medicine is a reserve that originated in the Aryan lands of Iran and has been perfected and tested over time, in close proximity to other medical schools, especially during the glorious period of Islamic civilization.

The school of medicine of Iran for several thousand years does not look at human beings only from the material dimension but also pays attention to their spiritual and spiritual dimensions. According to this school, maintaining health precedes treatment and paying attention to the right way of life, having healthy air, مناسب proper nutrition, adequate activity, لازم necessary rest and maintaining mental and emotional balance is a necessity.

And still have their own benefit and value.

The same is true of medicine. Many research institutes and centers in the East and West of the world have done serious research in the field of various medical schools since ancient times and have given attention to these matters in their research priority. Fortunately, in Iran, by launching various fields of medical sciences, medicine Traditional, traditional pharmacy in universities and research centers and institutes has dealt with this serious matter and day by day we are witnessing the emergence and dynamism of various disciplines in the field of traditional medicine in Iran, including medical history. This great movement will not be possible except by strengthening the revival of history. Iranian medicine and the thousands of manuscripts of the sages and scientists of Iran and Islam, which are in fact the main capital of this movement, because history is our guide and a list without which any choice and study will be difficult.
