FOREWCRD About Eve hundred years before Christ, in the golden age of Greece, healing was beginning to sever its direct connection with religion and its control by the priest- hood. Health resorts were springing up along the sunny shores of the islands of the blue Agean and farther inland toward the cooler mountains. These resorts were similar in some respects to the spas or watering place of today. Natural methods of treatment were practiced and the patient was taught to relax from the routine worries of life. Such resorts were controlled by priest-physicians, members of the Aescula- piads, who had dedicated their lives to Aesculapius, the god of Healing. Knowledge gained was handed down from father to son and to a few disciples bound by a stipulation and oath. lnto such a guild, at the famous healing resort and school-sanitarium on the island of Cos, in the Hfth century, B.C. was born Hippocrates who became known as Hip- pocrates The Great or Hippocrates 2nd, to distinguish him from four other physicians of the same name. While in this tranquil environment, Hippocrates unknowingly laid the basic principles of the Science, Art and Philosophy of Modern Chiropractic. His ancient manuscripts admonished the doctor of his day for not looking more often to the spine for the cause of disease. He thus set forth the principles of basic corrective manipulation. The doctrine of the scientific application and progressive development of the ancient principles of Hippocrates have been for more than a third of a century, tradition at the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic. Aesculapius, God of the Healing Arts, was a pupil of Chiron the Centaur, and the name Aesculapian has appropriately been chosen for this work. 2-,it..f'.aQ.w l: ffwwx ffvwvf-'20.:'l:, adm I -H 1 ' ' ' E - -2.-11:3-'IrZ,-'f?s'1'? 7-11:- AH 4-Sf -' -'5-W -Q -- XPV' flfw Q. . -s M . ,. f - N fv ,az '73-3 ' -75-Q-3 -- . .. ..
