自古以来，尤纳尼医学体系就在医疗保健系统中发挥着作用。通常，会采用四种治疗方式，即养生疗法、食疗、药物治疗和手术，来治疗疾病。养生疗法是一种重要的治疗方式，通过这种方式，身体内的病态物质要么被驱散/排出，要么阻止其不必要的产生，要么限制其流动，从而使身体的自然治愈者治愈疾病，进而恢复体液平衡。在经典的尤纳尼文献中，提到了近 30 种养生方法。最常见的养生程序包括（放血）、（拔罐）、（水蛭疗法/蚂蟥疗法）、（通便）、（催吐）、（利尿）、（灌肠）、（发汗）、（运动）、（按摩）、（沐浴）、（涂油）、（冲洗）、（灌洗/喷洒）、（蒸汽/蒸气应用）、（热敷）等，通常用于治疗各种疾病。这些养生程序完全基于整体方法，具有潜力，但需要进行科学探索。本综述概述了尤纳尼医学中使用的各种养生疗法的治疗应用。
