Faith healing
Faith healing refers to the curing of illness through the religious attitude of the patient. It involves curing of an illness or disability without the use of traditional medicine. Faith healing is particularly popular in Christianity. It is based on the miraculous cures brought about by Jesus Christ during his period.
Christian Science is well known for faith healing. Similarly in Jewish tradition also faith healing is common. Usually prayers for cures and miracles are rendered to god. But the followers of Christian Science have different approach for their problems. They do not consider their system as faith healing. They believe that human beings are godlike and so they are not subjected to material illnesses.
Faith healing is also present in the fields of psychosomatic and psychotherapy. Faith healing is sometimes called as divine healing. It involves the use of spiritual means in treating several illnesses. It is one of the popular alternative medicines.
