Traditional Approaches

AbstractHealth care and health care systems should be seen and understood in their socio-cultural context. Modern urbanized societies are likely to exhibit health care pluralism, and different therapeutic approaches are available side-by-side. The various models may take their origin in different cultural traditions, but in most societies one type of care is at a given time considered “above” the others. However health care activities in all societies show a degree of interrelation, reflecting societal changes in which normative practices, value systems and structures change over time. In the current Western health systems evidence-based biomedical care is the prevailing system taught to all professionals.The present paper outlines the prevailing health paradigms, and the advantages and shortcomings of the various approaches and their relation to modern care will be discussed. With increased multicultural backgrounds of patients there is a need for mental health professionals to recognize the existence of traditional approaches and be aware of the parallel systems of care. Competent treatment of such patients requires that mental health professionals are aware of this and exhibit a willingness and ability to bridge between the more traditional and the Western approaches to treatment. The delineations and various aspects of the concept cultural competence and its dimensions will be discussed from a clinical perspective.Comparative studies of the various Western and the traditional approaches respectively will be reviewed.
