***NB: We recognise that the audio of this podcast may be difficult to understand/ follow for some listeners, nevertheless we felt it important to share this podcast for those with a deep interest in the work Dr Panzironi is involved within. *** Why have 60,000 years of traditional and Aboriginal methods of healing and medicine not been considered as part of mainstream medicine, particularly in within the Australian healthcare system? This is the question Dr Francesca Panzironi asked herself before embarking on a 4 year journey across South Australia to search for the answers, a journey which culminated in the founding of the Anangu Ngangkari Tjutaku Aboriginal Corporation (ANTAC).  In this episode, Francesca discusses the importance of her work with ANTAC and how it has resulted in the incorporation of traditional Aboriginal healers and practices into the orthodox hospital setting, outlining the different approaches and perspectives, as well as what the future might look like as this blending of traditional and modern medicine becomes more mainstream. Find today's show notes here: https://www.fxmedicine.com.au/podcast/aboriginal-traditional-medicine-mainstream-healthcare-dr-francesca-panzironi **Please note, no transcript will be available for this episode. *****DISCLAIMER: The information provided on FX Medicine is for educational and informational purposes only.
