Global Traditional Medicine Market - IMG1

Traditional medicine refers to health practices, approaches, knowledge and beliefs incorporating plant, animal and mineral based medicines, spiritual therapies, manual techniques and exercises, applied singularly or in combination to treat, diagnose and prevent illnesses or maintain well-being. It is the sum total of the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, whether explicable or not, used in the maintenance of health as well as in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness. Traditional medicine has a long history and people still heavily rely on it in some Asian and African countries. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 2021, In Ghana, Mali, Nigeria and Zambia, herbal medicines are the first line treatment for more than 60% of children with high fever. The global traditional medicine market is expected to witness significant growth, owing to rising demand for natural, herbal alternative treatment options to modern medicines.

Market Dynamics:

Global traditional medicine market growth is driven by rising awareness about herbal and homeopathic medicines along with their potential health benefits. Growing preference for traditional treatments over allopathic medicines due to lesser side effects is boosting the market growth. Various government initiatives aimed at promoting traditional therapies and integrating them into mainstream healthcare systems in different countries are creating new opportunities. However, lack of scientific evidence validating efficacy and safety of traditional medicines, difficulty in standardization of products, and tight regulatory frameworks are some challenges restraining wider acceptance. Adoption of digital technologies by practitioners can help to address these issues by enabling quality control and monitoring. This will further fuel the traditional medicine industry expansion.
