But what makes Tibb relevant to today's health challenges is that it regards the person not just as a functional organic machine, but as an unbelievably complex creation with physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions. Tibb actually explains the perfect link between body, mind and soul which is based upon the 'three main organ theory of heart, liver and brain' originates from three germinal layers of fetus. Unani Tibb is officially recognized by the Department of Health under the jurisdiction of the Allied Health Professions Council of South Africa (AHPCSA). |
