Medicine is the science behind treating illnesses. In the annals of human history, the art of healing has been a steadfast companion to the endeavors of mankind.

Professionals that practice medicine for a living are known as doctors.
Types of medicinal practices
Herbal remedies
The utilization of plants and herbs for medicinal purposes traces back to ancient civilizations. Among the Brotherhood, knowledge of these remedies is deeply ingrained, passed down through generations. Herbal remedies were used historically as far back as Ancient Greek times.[1]
Spiritual healing
Spiritual practices, including meditation and ritualistic ceremonies, serve as integral components of healing within the Brotherhood, addressing not only physical ailments but also mental and emotional strife. Several practitioners of spiritual healing were prevalent through Ancient Greece and the numerous Viking clans of the 8th century.[1][2]
Institutions
Institutions that practice medicine and promote general healthcare have existed for millennia. In Ancient Greece, temples dedicated to Asklepios were used to treat the wounded and sick.[1] One of the earliest examples of a hospital was The Great Bimaristan, built as early as 805 during the Islamic Golden Age.[3] Mental asylums were another type of hospital, as a means to treat psychology traumatized individuals. Though they traced their origins back to the Islamic bimaristans, such institutions were heavily prevalent during the Victorian era of England.[4] One such asylum with a bad reputation was the Lambeth Asylum, responsible for the initial detainment of a young Jack the Ripper.[5]
