    Traditional medicine refers to alternative and ancient forms of medicine originating in Asia, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East, and includes practice areas such as Arurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).


    These healing practices have been passed down through generations within specific cultures or communities, and often incorporates beliefs, knowledge, and practices that have been developed and refined over centuries.  It encompasses a wide range of therapeutic approaches, including herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage, spiritual healing, and various cultural rituals.


    One of the fundamental principles of traditional medicine is the recognition of the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit. Traditional healers believe that imbalances or disharmony in these aspects can lead to illness and seek to restore equilibrium for overall well-being.
