Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier
3
Reliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked point about a folk healing tradition rather than a disputed claim.
Notes
Wikipedia's article on curanderismo, consulted 2026-08-11. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication; used here for the article's own general statement that most curanderos, sobadores among them, inherit or apprentice into the healing gift rather than train formally, and for curanderismo's documented spread into United States cities since the 1990s, standard reference facts.
