Offer description:
At the beginning of medicine was shamanism. The word is of Siberian origin, but it covers a reality present in the medical history of all continents.
From the Australian aborigine to the Amerindian medicine man, via the Hawaiian kahuna, the Japanese Miko or the bombo Tamang from Nepal, each socio-culture has its shaman, a mysterious and androgynous character, at the crossroads of the priest and the doctor.
He considers that the human entity is made of a body and a spirit which interact permanently, between a birth and a death and that they themselves are only the two sides of the same life.
