Abstract

People tend to trust traditional medicine more than conventional medicine because they believe that nature is a source of healing, refreshment, and restoration. The traditional medical culture differs depending on the civilisation and how the people live and where they live. Chinese medicine, indigenous Arabic medicine, Korean traditional medicine, Uyghur traditional medicine, traditional European medicine, traditional African medicine, traditional aboriginal Bush medicine, Japanese kampo medicine, and others are all examples of traditional medicine. These medications are used in a number of ways, including the diagnosis of illness, the prevention of illness, and the treatment of an illness. A person known as a traditional healer will offer medical care using various methods and specific plants, animals, and mineral substances. Traditional medicine contains medical aspects of traditional knowledge that was developed generation over generation within the society of people before the era of modern medicine.
