The Indians believed that bad spirits made people ill. So, when people were ill, the medicine man tried to help them by using magic; he spoke to the good spirits and asked for their help. Many people were cured because they thought that the spirits were helping them. But really these people cured themselves. Sometimes your own mind is the best doctor for you.
The medicine men were often successful for another reason, too. They knew about plants that really can cure illness. A lot of modern medicines are made from plants that were used by medicine men hundreds of years ago.
For more than five thousand years Chinese doctors have used needles to fight illness. This kind of medicine is called acupuncture (针灸). The doctor studies the sick person carefully. Then he puts needles into that person's body at the right places for his illness. Chinese doctors believe that they can control the body's natural forces in this way. At first, doctors in the West thought that this was just another kind of magic. Recently, however, they have found out that it is possible to cure many illnesses like this because the needles help the body to produce its own medicines. In this way the body cures itself.
