Traditional Medicine is developing over the years through traditional knowledge before modern medicine. About 80% of the Asian and African population has been following traditional medicine for their primary health care. Traditional medicine is considered as a safer medicine since it constitutes natural products avoiding harmful chemicals. The knowledge, skills, and practices in Traditional Medicine which are also called folk medicine or Indigenous medicine are passed over generations within the society for the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and improvement of physical and mental illness.
Alternative medicine is the form of prevention and treatment of illness using diet, exercise, chemicals, herbs, devices, and manual procedures. These types of medicine are not science-based healthcare but it provides equivalent results. Alternative medicine can be used as complementary medicine with modern medical techniques to enhance the procedure. Complementary therapies focus on relaxation and stress reduction.
