African Traditional Medicine
African Traditional Medicine refers to the diverse healing practices and beliefs rooted in the cultures of African societies. It encompasses herbal remedies, spiritual healing, and practices passed down through generations. Traditional healers, such as herbalists and diviners, play essential roles, using local plants, rituals, and community knowledge to treat physical and emotional ailments. While it is often used alongside modern medicine, African Traditional Medicine emphasizes a holistic approach, addressing not just symptoms but also the spiritual and social aspects of health. This practice is an integral part of many communities and reflects their cultural identity and values.
