What is "fringe medicine"?
Fringe medicine refers to non-standard or alternative approaches to health and healing that are not widely accepted by mainstream medical practices. These methods may include therapies such as homeopathy, crystal healing, or energy medicine, which are not typically supported by scientific evidence or accepted medical standards. While some individuals may find benefit from fringe medicine practices, it is important to approach them with caution.
