Traditional and complementary health systems in the United States of America include a broad range of practices, from Indigenous tribal healing and herbalism to Chinese medicine, naturopathy and integrative medicine. Native American healing systems \u2013 such as sweat lodges, plant medicine and ceremonial care \u2013 are practised across sovereign Tribal Nations with deep ties to land, spirituality and culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Health services for Native Americans are delivered through the Indian Health Service, where some facilities integrate traditional healing upon community request. National centres such as the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health support scientific research on Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine. Licensing and regulation of complementary practices are managed at the state level.<\/span><\/p>\n","slide_images":[{"ID":49,"id":49,"title":"amro-slide4","filename":"amro-slide4.jpg","filesize":751307,"url":"https:\/\/wp.staging.tmgl.org\/americas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/10\/amro-slide4.jpg","link":"https:\/\/wp.staging.tmgl.org\/americas\/home\/amro-slide4\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"amro-slide4","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":9,"date":"2024-10-31
