Learning the Ancient Art of Healing
The ancient art of healing is expanding and reaching a wider following.
While different cultures have different healing arts to share—traditional medicine in China, leech therapy in India, hilot in the Philippines—now, more than ever, we are seeing an integration of all these practices, integration of the different healing arts and the integration with modern medicine.
In Canada and Germany, 7 out of 10 have tried folk treatment as alternative or supplement to modern health care. More recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) gathered in China to set the regulatory standards and folk medicine in cultures from South Africa to Japan. Member countries are expected to expand traditional medicine in their health care systems.
These ancient healing arts are making a comeback- appropriately at a time when it is most needed. Reports on possible economic recession are scaring even the most stable-looking hospitals. Rising prices of modern medicine are making people think twice about going to the hospital. On a wider perspective, even fuel, food, the financial crisis and climate change all have profound and profoundly unfair consequences for health, according to WHO Director General Dr. Margaret Chan. Thus, some would choose to forego health care.
