Overview Of Mexican Folk Healing Brought To The Heritage Center
Author: Evelyn Cronce Source: El Defensor Chieftain (NM)
Title: OVERVIEW OF MEXICAN FOLK HEALING BROUGHT TO THE HERITAGE CENTER
Dr. Eliseo "Cheo" Torres brought his expertise in curanderismo to El Camino Real International Heritage Center on June 9.
Torres gave an informative presentation of stories, slides, and information about curanderismo as it is historically and currently in Mexico and in the southwestern United States.
A curandero or curandera is a man or woman who practices healing using herbs and rituals in a holistic approach to healing the body, mind and spirit.
This Mexican folk healing includes practices influenced by various beliefs.
"You might think of acupuncture as an Oriental technique. The Aztecs did the same thing only they used thorns," he said.
