A laying on of hands

Shamanism is in and underesourced Western medicine is... out?
I don't think so. However, this article seems to point to the idea that somewhere in the international consciousness indigenous practices may have a place. I think those spaces where what used to work, and new 'innovative' (I locate that problematically) ideas can mix, are the only potential we have for effective health care in rural communities.
