The zar is a healing dance that is sung and performed by groups of nomadic women from northern Somalia. A woman afflicted by illness or spirit possession dances and enters into a trance. The dance is primarily used for healing purposes, but it also serves as a community event.

So the question is, do the notherners still perform it.........??????????

Advocator, Do you have Saar. Some people believe in this magical sickness

DamallaXagare, I have a extreme case of migrane headache, Since you are from waqooyi, Do you know anybody who reside in the norhwest of the states who performs this healing dance, "Reasonable prize of coarse"

I'd recommend, Excedrin for Stupid Tension.
