Origins and Spiritual Significance

Shamanic Drums are traditionally used in various indigenous and shamanic cultures as a means to communicate with the spiritual realm and navigate altered states of consciousness.

The drum is often considered a living entity, with its own spirit and energy, and is treated with great respect and reverence.
