Healing Cults

Healing cults are groups that promote the belief that specific leaders or practices can cure illnesses through spiritual, mystical, or supernatural means. Often, these groups claim exclusive access to healing powers, sometimes encouraging members to abandon conventional medical treatments. They may use rituals, prayer, or energy work, emphasizing faith and devotion. While some practices can offer emotional support, others may pose risks if they discourage or replace evidence-based healthcare. It's important to approach such groups critically, recognizing the difference between supportive spiritual activities and potentially harmful health claims.
