Interesting account. I've long considered shamanism with wonder. It has suffered significant decline under modernization. There are efforts at revival, however, even in modern culture. "The Kaiser Permanente Center For Health Research in Portland, Oregon conducted a phase I study into the effectiveness of shamanic healing as a treatment for chronic face and jaw pain. Twenty-three women who were diagnosed with Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMDs) participated in the study. At the end of treatment only four were clinically diagnosed with the TMDs present at the beginning of the study." ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
