Johann Hermann Lubinus (born July 9, 1865 in Elsfleth ; † May 23, 1937 in Kiel ) was a German doctor in Kiel.

Life

In 1895, Lubinus founded the "Institute for therapeutic gymnastics, orthopedics with massage, including a medico-mechanical pikeperch institute" in Kiel. By setting up the first German "training institute for therapeutic gymnastics" in 1901, Johann Lubinus is considered a co-founder of therapeutic gymnastics . Today the Lubinus Group with 500 employees and 212 beds is one of the oldest and largest family companies in the health care sector.

Since 1904 Lubinus was chairman of the Kiel Medical Association. In 1922 he proposed the establishment of a medical pension fund for the Schleswig-Holstein medical profession. It was dissolved in 1933 in the course of the “Gleichschaltung” and re-established in 1954, making it one of the first professional pension institutions in Germany.

Lubinus was married to Anna Howaldt, daughter of the shipyard founder Georg Howaldt . The marriage had five children. His son Hans Lubinus (1893–1973) continued the clinic as a specialist in surgery and orthopedics and became known as a regatta sailor and Olympic participant in sailing.

Since 1887 Lubinus was a member of the Corps Nassovia Würzburg .

The Johann-Hermann-Lubinus-School for Physiotherapy , which is located on the premises of the Lubinus Group in Kiel, is named after him.
