Testing things is different than practicing things.

You cannot test many things. You also cannot prove many things. Look at nutrition. Determining the cause and effect of a substance on a human body is difficult.

Science is aimed at proving things. Sometimes, in life, that luxury is not available.

You can't test/prove everything, however my understanding is that at least a large part of these quack treatments (if not all of them) have already been proven not being able to work (or being actively harmful) in existing medical literature.

Perhaps you should rethink the concept of "proven not being able to work".
