The Popular Health Movement of the 1830s–1850s was an aspect of Jacksonian-era politics and society in the United States. The movement promoted a rational skepticism toward claims of medical expertise that were based on personal authority, and encouraged ordinary people to understand the pragmatics of health care. Arising in the spirit of Andrew Jackson's anti-elitist views, the movement succeeded in ending almost all government regulation of health care. During the first two decades of the 19th century, states had regularly enacted licensing legislation; by 1845, only three states still licensed medical doctors. Among the leading figures within the movement were Samuel Thomson and Sylvester Graham.

Il s'agit du front médical d'un soulèvement social généralisé à cette époque, et qui a été nourri par les mouvements féministe et ouvrier. L'objectif de ce mouvement était principalement de s'opposer au recours aux "remèdes" appliqués par les médecins de l'époque, en privilégiant des recommandations préventives, notamment liées à l'hygiène personnelle au quotidien. Il s'agissait en ce sens de soutenir la "médecine du peuple" implantée mais mise à mal par le nouvel élitisme médical du XIXe siècle. (fr)
