Seriously enjoyed this. In fact I took all the curanderismo classes. I think this is not just traditional medicine but the wave of the future. This will become incorporated into our "modern" medicine and they will augment each other and greatly improve medical care.

Would have like it to be more in depth. More on the limpias and sobadas.

A lot of written mistakes. Videos are not always clear, when it comes to a sound and translation.
