An old shamanistic or pagan wisdom holds that “The body knows
instinctively what it needs for healing”.
This is overridden by modern medicine in a lot of cases and
by female practitioners who believe in a one size fits all approach. This is
symptomatic of the volubility of female doctors.
In the 1930’s a penman in Oxford coined the term intuitionism which is
summed up “Man’s ways cannot change folk ways”.
Always trust your instinct!
Incidentally, “Never go to a doctor unless you know what is
wrong with you” as my mother used to say.
St. Paul
counsels us not to meddle in other people business-advice doctors would do well
to listen to.
He also subscribes to the practice of “a strong rebuke” to
correct deviant behaviour.

Part of the game played by shamans is to invent false concepts and encourage belief in magic. Shamanism and faith healing are joined at the hip and for the former bogus remedies are handed out.
One of these shamanistic beliefs of 1980's origin is myalegic encephalitis. The belief in this imaginary ailment originates with the fleeting phenomenon of fatigue brought on by a virus or menstruation or herpid infection. Sometimes scoliosis of the spine arises in the instances of over-prescribing.
Western doctors universally shun shamans and 'faith' healers and the Bible condemns magicians such as Balaam and Beor both of whom claimed their donkey could talk. These ju-ju merchants were,we are told in Acts,condemned by Divine Providence to talk like an ass,a condition similar to the horsey laugh of a woman imbibing albumen for contraceptive purposes.
