| Description |
Persistence of traditional medicine in modern Ghana. Traditional medicine has proven to be effective in treating both chronic and psychological problems, especially those associated with stress. Many practitioners of traditional medicine have a solid knowledge of herbs and their effects in healing organically based illnesses. Traditional medicine is usually community based. Healers are selected by a community that emphasizes personal qualities, and they usually have to pass various tests. Because they are from community, traditional healers know their patients personally, and are well acquainted with backgrounds, lifestyles and cultural beliefs. Another benefit of traditional medicine is that it is decentralized: it is easily and quickly available to individuals for whom traveling to urban centers for treatment is inconvenient, time-consuming and costly. Modern medicine in Ghana has changed the view of medicine and health. It has picked both local methods and foreign methods in the treating of diseases.
