The growing awareness and acceptance of holistic health approaches is one of the major factors boosting the market growth. Moreover, the increasing dissemination of information through various channels, including the internet, social media, and health-focused publications, is favoring the market growth. Additionally, the rising exploration of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) by consumers due to dissatisfaction with conventional medicine, thereby seeking treatments with fewer side effects and more personalized care, is catalyzing the market growth. Furthermore, the endorsement of CAM by influential health practitioners and celebrities that play a crucial role in enhancing its credibility and attractiveness to the general public is contributing to the market growth.

  • Imposition of Supportive Government Policies and Funding Initiatives:

The implementation of supportive government policies and funding initiatives are crucial drivers favoring the market growth. Moreover, the growing recognition of the potential benefits of CAM, catalyzing the inclusion of policies that integrate these practices into national healthcare systems, is favoring the market growth. This includes the regulation and standardization of CAM therapies to ensure safety and efficacy, which in turn builds public trust. Additionally, the heightened inclusion of CAM therapies in health insurance coverage, making them more accessible to a broader population, is strengthening the market growth. Furthermore, the rising government funding for research and development (R&D) that supports clinical trials, studies, and the development of new CAM products and therapies is enhancing the market growth.

Furthermore, the growing demand for cost-effective alternatives that can provide relief and manage health conditions without the high expenses associated with conventional medicine is boosting the market growth. In addition to this, CAM practices emphasize prevention and overall wellness, which can lead to long-term cost savings by reducing the incidence of chronic diseases and the need for expensive medical interventions.
