  • This bones will tell the truth just like crystal stone and gemstone rune sets for rune readings have been utilized as an aid to psychic reading, since ancient times. The South African Sangoma (Shaman) here is real and has nothing to do with Muti killers scumbergs because she is not a fake Traditional Healer.

  • pourkoi sortir les secrets africain dans le monde entier on est africain et je pense ke ca devrait rester secret la sorcelerie est pire ke celui de l afric so pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • @sterlingstreamliner

    You aren't African.

  • Watching this video I feel connected to the people, as if I were there. The pace is fantastic.

    What you've captured is living video anthropology.

  • Quick and to the point, the video is more like National Geographic magazine in movie documentary form. Well done. As if the viewer is there.

  • Traditional Medicine has value because is passed down over the generations. Sometimes, people seek a non-conventional method of healing such as Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. It provides great benefits.

    Now, the only problem i see is the balance. There will be times you will need modern medicine when the need to have an operation is required. In Traditional medicine, someone will require the search for "nature's" products and natural methods.

    In this case, this is their primary health care.
