Native American Medicine by Mary Addiler Pdf

"Native American Healing Remedies - The Complete Beginner's Guide to Healing Your Body through Native American Medicine " Learn the BEST Ancient Medicinal Methods That Will Help You Today Native American Medicine has been used for over 40,000 years. Native American Medicine has also assisted in the development of some modern day medicines. For example the Native Americans used the bark of the willow tree to treat pain. This bark contains acetylsalicylic acid which we call aspirin today. While there was a time when Native American Medicine was not practiced, it is great to know that some of the methods have been carried on. Native American Medicine has not always been seen in a good light as there has not been much scientific evidence or documented cases to show that their practices work. Since the introduction of holistic therapies in the 1970s Native American medicine has made a comeback. Native American medicine combines the mind, body, heart and soul to ensure that there is a balance and to improve your health. Native American medicine today has assisted many in alleviating their pain caused from ailments such as cancer and AIDS.
