Today, two health structures exist on the Peigan reserve. One is
based on Blackfoot culture, and the other is based on European
theories of health and healing. Although both methods are used on
the reserve, the government only acknowledges the European
approach. This book describes Blackfoot healing traditions, their
spiritual foundations, and their historical development in great
detail. Akak'stiman shows how Blackfoot healing methods can be
integrated with western approaches on the Peigan reserve. Oral
evidence from interviews with elders and historical documents bring
varying approaches to this timely topic. It is an important
document in the neglected field of Indigenous procedures and
philosophies.
