The article focuses on the historical origins of medicaltourism, namely, its medical and health direction. This is due to the search for a new model of medicine – self-regulatory and preventive, which should replace the Hippocratic model, which does not meet the needs of modern medicine. Medical and health tourism can be viewed in a particular system that includes, on the one hand, a therapeutic function and, on the other hand, a preventive one. The basis for the discovery of the origins of health tourism is the work of ancient researchers, which contains evidence of doctors of antiquity, assessment of their work, as well as evidence of the most common diseases most common at that time. This information about healing springs and resorts was a crucial therapeutic factor contributing to restoring the patient's health. These are the works of Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, Pausanias and others, which provide invaluable information about the healing sources that became the foundation for the medical and health direction in medicine. Numerous researchers who touched upon natural history in their works mention the healing springs located in different parts of the world at that time. Among the Greek researchers, we find such references from the philosopher Aristotle, geographer Strabo, historian Diodorus, traveller, and art historian Pausanias. It is Pausanias, in his Description of Hellas, mentions many healing springs. Health tourism is becoming a priority for our compatriots. A priority for our compatriots. Its advantages are significant today. Firstly, European clinics provide more accurate diagnoses, contributing to treatment success. Secondly, the medicines doctors prescribe do not always solve the problem. Thirdly, the most complex surgical procedures are performed abroad, and surgical operations are performed abroad more efficiently. Fourthly, there are not enough transplants in Ukraine. Transplant operations are not performed enough in Ukraine, and patients wait for their turn for more than one year for their turn. At this time, when many defenders of our country will need the help of medical and health tourism, it will be in demand and relevant.
