Is it permissible to follow shaman-style treatment, inner-power practices and the 'ratu ibu duit' knowledge advertised in tabloid newspapers?
Short answer
The fatwa states that the practices advertised in tabloids have uncertain content, as it is not known whether they truly follow the methods of treatment in Islam.

Summary
The fatwa states that the practices advertised in tabloids have uncertain content, as it is not known whether they truly follow the methods of treatment in Islam. For this reason, they should not be followed. The examples named are traditional bomoh treatments, inner-power or cakra alam practices, and the ratu ibu duit knowledge.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Ilmu-ilmu yang diiklankan itu adalah ilmu yang tidak pasti kandungannya sama ada betul-betul berlunaskan tatacara pengubatan dalam Islam/tidak. Maka itu, ia tidak harus diikuti.
