I'm trying to track down a video made perhaps in the 90s about "universal indigenous healing practices" that featured perhaps 5 "indigenous" practitioners, some of whom may indeed have been indigenous, but one was a white woman talking about "Hawaiian" Huna. My friend remembers another person talking about the Sami and one talking about Chinese medicine. The theme of the movie was that all indigenous peoples have the same healing rituals (!)  If any of this sounds familiar, please let me know. Would love to get the title, year, any identifying info or the video itself. Thanks.

Good news, I found it. Bad news, it looks bad.

QuoteIn this program, Dr. Robert Buckman discusses the differences between conventional medicine and representative forms of alternative medicine while pointing out the similarities behind all forms of medical treatment. A conventional medical doctor, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, a homeopathic physician, a holistic general practitioner, a Rolfing specialist, an iridologist, a healer trained in the Hawaiian belief system of Huna, and a "bonesetter" in the Kalevalan folk tradition are filmed while consulting, diagnosing, and treating their patients. Navajo and curanderismo healing ceremonies are also presented.

I'll let you know what I see - they have it here at the library. It was made in 2006 but seems to have slipped pretty far off the radar.
