They Have Their Own Healing Methods

The Amish prefer to use different types of healing methods as opposed to visiting the doctors. They are also economical in their health choices and they prefer to seek medical advice from friends and family first before going to an actual hospital. Some recommendations they receive are considered folk medicine while others include practices of faith healing.

Other remedies that they use for ailments include herbal medicine and other non-traditional treatments. This practice is in line with their efforts to remain self-sufficient.
