The Unani system of medicine originated in Greece and the term Unani is derived from 'Unan', Arabic and Urdu for 'Greece'. The theoretical framework of Unani medicine is based on the work of Hippocrates (460-377 BC). By his method of careful study and comparison of symptoms, he laid down the foundation for clinical medicine based on diet and rest. Unani experts perform surgeries also.
