The study revealed that supernatural healing occurs in various forms within the South African population, including through traditional healers, spiritual healers, or religious leaders. This diversity in healing approaches reflects the country's multicultural nature, where healthcare often operates in both temporal and spiritual spheres.

While science and religion have been debated for centuries, healthcare assessments traditionally focus on the medical model of detecting and curing ailments. However, as shown in South African studies, there's growing recognition that psychological, social, and spiritual factors significantly affect human experiences of the supernatural. This explains why many South Africans feel comfortable sharing their supernatural encounters, even when faced with scepticism.
