The sentence should be corrected by changing the word "safely". Safely is an adverb, but where it appears in the sentence only an adjective is called for.
The sentence should read:

For nearly everything supposedly treatable with feline folk medicines, there are effective, safe, and proven remedies available in modern medicine.
