Hygieia is a
Goddess from Greek mythology (also referred to as Hygiea or Hygeia). Hygieia is a goddess of health, cleanliness and hygiene. Her name is the source for the word "hygiene". Hygieia is related to the Greek god of medicine, Asclepius, who is the son of the Olympian god Apollo. Hygieia is most commonly referred to as a daughter of Asclepius and his wife Epione. Hygieia and her four sisters each performed a facet of Apollos art: Hygieia (health, cleanliness, and sanitation), Panacea (universal remedy), Iaso (recuperation from illness), Aceso (the healing process) and Aglaia (beauty, splendor, glory, magnificence, and adornment). One notable reference regarding Hygieias role as a goddess of health can be found within the Hippocratic oath. This oath is used by physicians in order to swear before various healing gods, one of which being Hygieia, that they would follow a code of established ethical standards of practice. Section of the translated oath from Greek to English: I swear by Apollo Healer, by Asclepius, by Hygieia, by Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture.
