Maputaland - a place of the most powerful traditional healers and Sangomas

Maputaland - a place of the most powerful traditional healers and Sangomas

Mbazwane and a wide part of Maputaland is considered sacred and a place of highly skilled Sangomas and traditional healers. In a small village nestled along the rugged coastline of Northern KwaZulu-Natal, lives a modern day Sangoma Ntombi Kondlazi known for her extraordinary healing abilities. From her modest space in a local market, she serves as a beacon of hope for those seeking solace and restoration.

Most mornings Ntombi ventures into the dense bush and open grasslands that border her village, her footsteps guided by whispers of ancient spirits. She gathers roots, leaves, animal bones and herbs, each possessing its own mystical properties. These natural treasures, combined with her innate intuition, form the cornerstone of her healing practice.

Ntombi Kondlazi is one of many traditional healers that continue to weave her magic, offering healing and solace to all who sought her wisdom near the ocean's edge. For in her hands, the roots, bones, and powders of the earth are not mere tools, but vessels through which the power of love and compassion flows endlessly forth.
