When we think about Thailand, what comes to mind are probably beaches, exotic places, tropical fruit, sightseeing, and maybe even Thai massage but this healing miracle has nothing to do with any of the above. All cultures in the world have some system of healing. People have always had problems with their bodies due to disease, injuries or accidents, and that will never change. Healers of some kind have always been a necessity for any society. Such healing systems range from shamanic approaches to modern medicine with innumerable varieties in between. Even in western societies which have officially subscribed to modern medicine as the only healing system, there is a huge subculture of alternative approaches. Older traditional cultures have relied on such methods for thousands of years since there were no other means available. All of these methods have merit and work sometimes, but not all the time – just like modern medicine.
