“Izinyanga ziyalana nezilwane ezihlaba”
(Traditional healers understand the stinging animals)
Ubungoma is a sacred calling (isiko) rooted in:
Ancestral Mandate: Communication with amadlozi (ancestral spirits)
Natural Wisdom: Mastery of izihlahla (medicinal plants) and environmental harmony
Community Service: Healing physical, emotional, and spiritual imbalances
“We don’t choose Ubungoma – it chooses us through thwasa (initiation sickness).”
Q: Can I use traditional healing with Western medicine?
A: “They’re complementary tools – we treat spirit (umoya) while doctors treat body (umzimba). Many clients use our herbal remedies alongside clinical treatment.”
Q: Do traditional methods work in today's world?
A: Modern stress – career pressure, broken relationships – often stems from ancestral disconnect. Our rituals address root causes, not just symptoms.
Q: How long until I see results?
A: Healing follows ancestral time, not clock time. Most feel shifts within 7 moons, but true transformation requires ongoing practice.
