Why Filipinos Still Believe in Albularyos?
The main reason why Filipinos still believe in Albularyo or witch doctor is because
they are already part of our culture since before the Spaniards came in the form of
babaylans. They believed in albularyo because there are really some cases that they
healed the patients that the hospitals can’t treat. I think one reason also is because
some albularyos use herbs that is clinically proven effective that’s why Filipinos still
believe or trust albularyos. Lastly, having financial problems brings Filipinos to go to
albularyos because their services is affordable.
