In England, Henry VIII (1485-1509) during the reign land and confiscated all church property deeds with great support.

In 1569, children in public hospitals, St. Mary Bethel mentally ill, such as St. Bartholomew’s and St. Thomas Hospital in Christ, including five public hospitals are new. However, individual hospital patient is the only option.

It seems that is sent through a series of different people. Classes based on patient's doctor to see the patient and he was unable to pay the money. Universities and colleges for the education of physicians met with medical professionals, usually provided by the very rich. Operations and Barber, who belonged to the barber surgeons, have the same reputation. Just pull the tooth barber or absorbed through wounds or blood, we were allowed to use.

Outbreaks of infectious diseases such as bubonic plague and typhoid medicine Elizabethan England, and rats, fleas, and experiencing the open sewer filled with medical infectious waste in big cities, there is a great place for five years is absurd, and water flow. Unexplained illness, based on the teachings and beliefs of the ancient Greeks and astrology. It is often considered a normal dress weird ignorance of physicians, and it is clear.

It is close to the patient before and Angelica give the vinegar, Mel is fixed. Precautions may seem absurd and inconsistent. However, the popular belief about the drugs makes sense at the time, six different theories, developed from.


Ancient Greek, Galen, developed the first theory. Blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile: the "humor" It is believed that the body fluids of the body. Each group has a number of features. Blood is hot and moist, phlegm is cold and moist, yellow bile, hot and dry, and black bile is cold and dry. There is a natural balance of fluids in the body to maintain healthy levels. No imbalance that occurs in this disease. For example, a cooling effect on the body is very hot and dry phlegm. Drying and heating, or stay in bed and eat hot soup celebration.

Four humors blood traits; too, considered the treatment of mental illness, is cold phlegm, yellow bile angry, not depressed, and black bile.

The second theory is the signature policy. Used for the benefit of the doctrine of God that gives small creature, comes from the Bible. Using several species of human life, and many species of labor. The material used in medicine and other non-edible species on earth. For example, lung Lungwort good and Eyebright is a clear view.

The third theory, astrology, intensity and duration of the disease and determine the patient's symptoms and orbit the Earth was born. The fourth approach is the traditional medical theory. The theory is that the disease is the presence of a foreign body; fraud is an important treatment in the presence of seizures. For example, exorcism is a mental illness that is needed, call the king goiter, tuberculosis neck is optional, and toads have warts treatment.

Fifth principle of non-organic materials and new materials such as pure tobacco and mercury Medical Services was found embedded in the chemical sciences, uses. The sixth deals with the theory of magic. Today, the line between medical treatment and the right magic is very vague. Elizabeth also appears valid logic and science of magic.

Most injuries are the most common clean agent used to prevent infection vinegar used there. The only treatment for dental use any anesthetic, he was shot. Bubo Bubonic plague hot butter, onions and garlic have been treated. Blake and tobacco settlement, arsenic, lily root and dried toad, including trial. Headache, sage, bay leaves, pink and fragrant herbs like lavender conducted. Pest abdominal pain, mint, and balm performed. Comfrey treated lung problems. Any specific examples of common problems in the treatment of Elizabethan era.

All medical Elizabeth be a major asset to the placebo effect. Often the most important part of the recovery process in the treatment of patients self-confidence, excited. Doctors and patients do not know, Elizabeth Medical perhaps the most fundamental secrets.
