(1815-1901)
Thomas Low Nichols was a journalist, editor, physician, author, rebel, and radical reformer. After hearing Sylvester Graham’s lecture on Crusade for Health and Physiological Reform, he immediately followed Graham’s principles. In 1851, Thomas and his wife, Mary Gove Nichols, opened the American Hydropathic Institute, the first medical establishment created to teach the principles of water therapy and living simply. Most significantly, it was one of the first medical schools in the world to admit women.
As noted in the publication section, Thomas was a prolific writer. His numerous books and periodicals focused on the principles of the American Hydropathic Institute. He lectured extensively all over the East Coast and in England.
He became a champion of the Natural Hygiene movement, which provides the foundational base of the National Health Association.
