Though the threads which comprise Unani Healing can be traced all the way back to Hippocrates, Unani Medicine as a healing system was founded by Hakim Ibn Sina. The time of origin is dated at circa 980 AD in Persia. It is a comprehensive system encompassing virtually all of the known healing systems of the world. As an alternative medicine, unani has found favour in Asia especially India. In India, Unani practitioners can practice as qualified doctors, as the Indian government approves their practice.
