Traditional Thai medicine (TTM) is a system of methods and practices, such as herbal medicine, bodywork practices, and spiritual healing that is indigenous to the region currently known as Thailand. While not all Buddhist medicine is Thai, Thai medicine is considered Buddhist medicine.
The TTM is heavily influenced by Buddhism. According to this religious belief, the human body is composed of four elements: earth, water, wind and fire, and an imbalance in one of these elements will lead to illness (Chokevivat and Chuthaputti, 2005). TTM consists of four different aspects: medical practice (diagnosis and treatment), pharmacy practice (the production and the use of herbal medicines), traditional midwifery and traditional
Even though these ill health conditions could be managed by the health facilities, there were no drugs and other medical supplies, a common cry to many rural areas in developing countries. Thus, CUMPs and THPs become the only options for people living in rural areas. This creativity of humankind on managing health problems by using herbal plants found within his environment in this study is likely to be appearing in other rural wards/villages worldwide where medical drugs and other supplies are inadequate or not available
