The History of Physical Culture
The history of western medicine and Physical Culture extends back to ancient Greece, where a person went to two places to receive an education: the Museum and the Gymnasium.
At the Museum, a person studied Music, which was nine subjects – everything from song and dance, to meditation and astronomy – inspired by the nine Muses - goddesses of inspiration. You can learn more about Music by coming to the Understanding of Music Seminar.
Gymnasium, on the other hand, comes from the ancient Greek word gymnos, which means naked. Fact is, athletes trained in the nude back then, and in those days, only unmarried women were allowed to view the Olympics – you can imagine why! Fortunately, things have changed since then, and we can pick and choose which traditions we wish to carry forward. Massage therapy and medicine evolved from the Gymnasium. Hippocrates, the Father of Modern Medicine, author of the Hippocratic Oath taken by physicians today - "never do harm to anyone . . . ", was in fact the caretaker of youth training for athletic competition at a Gymnasium in ancient Greece.
The word "drug" comes from a word that meant "dry," as in dried herbs. Today, drugs are mostly poisons, and modern medicine is so far removed from what Hippocrates taught, he is probably rolling over in his grave!
Dr.
John Harvey Kellogg,
Pioneer of Health and Nutrition
Battle Creek, Michigan, became famous in the late 1800's as a cultural center where people came to learn a healthy lifestyle.
Dr. Kellogg's natural health regimen, delivered at the world-famous Battle Creek Sanitarium (which literally means "Health Resort", from the Latin word for health, sanitas), much more closely resembled the teachings of Hippocrates. In the photo here (courtesy of Willard Library) you see hundreds of people, young and old alike, learning breathing exercises at the Battle Creek Sanitarium.
Here you see Dr. J. H. Kellogg lecturing in the parlor at the Sanitarium (photo courtesy of Willard Library).
The original meaning of "doctor" was "teacher".
Patients of Dr. J. H. Kellogg were taught deep-breathing exercises and basic
calisthenics as part of a healthy daily regimen. This is old-school
knowledge!
Patients of Dr. J. H. Kellogg also learned basic
calisthenics as part of a healthy daily regimen. In this photo
(courtesy of Willard Library) you see young and old alike learning some basic
movements.
Diet and Nutrition are Key to a Lifetime of Fitness and Health
Modern-day researcher Ian "Doc" Shillington is a Doctor of Naturopathy (by definition, a subject which deals with the Cause of Disease), and has been carrying on the tradition of Hippocrates and Dr. J. H. Kellogg, teaching people the Cause of Disease, and how to reverse the dwindling spiral of health. His Lifetime Health Lecture Series gives vital information YOU NEED to get the most out of ANY fitness program.
