| 520 | |a Western medical science has disseminated conceptions of body and disease that have become hegemonic, covering up other cultural and religious systems that interpret the body differently and offering other alternatives of healing. This paper aims to demonstrate how Umbanda, a Brazilian religion, has explained and dealt with such issues, becoming, in addition to a religion, a place where people go to seek healing and answers to cases of diseases that conventional medicine cannot solve. People who have mediumistic abilities may find themselves out of balance, showing various physical and mental symptoms, as well as uncontrolled spiritual manifestations, which only cease when they start practicing mediumistic activities or when they go under religious initiations. These cases are diagnosed in mediumistic religions as Mediumship Disorder. Through a case study of mediumship disorder occurring in three generations of the same family, I seek to shed light on how religious conceptions may help people to comprehend and address their health issues. Supported by several authors, I also rise a discussion about hegemonic medical sciences versus "alternative" medicine. | ||
