Doctor Apolinary Tarnawski (1851–1943) was undoubtedly the precursor of modern natural medicine, preventive medicine, and geriatric physiotherapy in Poland. Based on the experience gained from foreign scientific travel, own knowledge and experience, he developed an original method that he successfully used in his own clinic in Kosów. His assumptions proved to be timeless, and despite the passage of many years have not lost their relevance.; Liječnik Apolinary Tarnawski (1851. – 1943.) nedvojbeno je bio preteča moderne prirodne medicine, preventivne medicine i gerijatrijske fizioterapije u Poljskoj. Na temelju iskustva stečenog na inozemnim znanstvenim putovanjima te vlastita znanja i iskustva razvio je originalnu metodu kojom se uspješno koristio u vlastitoj klinici u Kosówu. Njegove su se pretpostavke pokazale bezvremenima i unatoč protoku mnogih godina nisu izgubile na značenju.
