The popularized concept that Native American people have a “mystical” spirituality and live in harmony with nature is yet another taboo myth. Native Americans do believe in living in harmony with all elements as well as balance and harmony of spirit, mind, body and the environment. This belief also provides the Native American culture with a holistic approach to medicine. Health issues and solutions are typically seen as spiritually based and cared for without western medical interventions. This cultural custom directly affects treatment and how long an individual goes before being treated by a speech pathologist or audiologist.

In their pillaging they took things of religious value for their own wealthy ambitions. The Vikings were no doubt savage warriors and raiders but they were also a civilization full of adventure, discovery, religion, and structure, They did not destroy European civilization; they enriched it.

A lot of surveys have been done over the years about the ethological aspect of these practices since they are sometimes considered holistic and unfounded since many healing practices are composed of rituals and sacred bundles used by shamans or witches. To a foreign audience, it might be at first disorienting and doubtful because medicine in our world is considered a science and revolves around collected data unlike religious practices. A survey made in 1994 states that “Many respondents indicated that they were unsure what traditional Native medicine entailed and thus had difficulty forming an opinion on whether it would be appropriate in various settings, especially in the hospital. In fact, 16% of the physicians indicated this directly, and another 14% left the question blank, when asked for their definition of traditional Native medicine (Table 2). Eighty-one percent believed that the use of traditional Native medicine was not an important issue in their community, although 41% knew of at least one patient in their practice using such medicines, and 15% knew of more than five patients using them.

The history of medicine goes back over thousands of years and is still developing today. Medicine was used to diminish illness and heal injury since the beginning of humanity. In ancient times, if one was to become sick or injured, Egypt would have been the best place to do so. Egyptians chances of survival would have been remarkably better than those of one’s foreign peer, but one had the opportunity of being treated by a physician whose work was displayed all over the ancient world and has made a huge impact and change in the modern world that we know today.
