<![CDATA[Traditional medicine in Indonesia, as part of the archipelago's cultural heritage, has been the main choice in curing people's illnesses. Despite the growth of modern medical services, many still rely on traditional medicine, including reflexology, herbal drinks, aromatherapy, chiropractic therapy, cupping, and acupuncture. This study aims to examine and discuss traditional medicine in Indonesia, focusing on Battra (traditional medicine) and various types of traditional medicine such as reflexology, herbal drinks, aromatherapy, chiropractic therapy, cupping, acupuncture, as well as traditional medicine in the context of Islamic law.
