Why is the ritual aspect of many ethnomedical traditions so perplexing to westerners?
 
  A) There is an assumption in biomedicine that the mind is fundamentally different from the body.
  B) We have no such rituals in our culture, and so do not understand why they are important.
  C) There is evidence that ritual actually worsens the outcome of treatment.
