Previous issue date: 2007-07-26 / The World Health Organization (WHO) has given special attention to therapeutic procedures other than those practiced in conventional therapy, including homeopathy, phytotherapy, spiritual therapies and prayers, making possible the transition from a mere medicalizating model to a holistic view of the human being. This trend, earmarked in 1978 at the Alma-Ata Conference, questions the ability of technological and specialized medicine to solve the health problems of humankind. In Brazil, the onset of the Brazilian unified health system in 1988, introduced changes in the population s health care model where, within the scope of basic care, emphasis has been given to the Family Health Program since 1994. In this scenery, there is a broad area of complementary practices used in promoting health and preventing and treating diseases to support an understanding of the habits and beliefs underpinning popular practices. The purpose of this study was to analyze the perception users participating in the Peace and Balance group of the Family Health Unit of Nova Cidade, in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, started in 1999, have of the relationship between the experience of prayer and the changes that may have taken place in their lives after joining the group. It is a case study of descriptive nature and qualitative approach. The data were collected during focus group interviews between January and February 2007, using as tools a questionnaire to describe the research participants and a discussion outline. The theoretical support approached the following: religion and the evolution of thought; complementary health practices; and religion as a complementary health practice. Those interviewed reported, as results of such experience, a reduction in stress and depression, an increase in socialization and self-esteem, improved family interaction, comfort, safety, assurance, improved blood pressure levels and a decrease in the use of antihypertension medication and psychopharmacs. Although most professionals do not consider attention to the religious and spiritual aspects an effective therapeutical complement in health care, its understanding and practice may democratize knowledge and relationships, out of which they can learn how to make health production more effective, strengthening assurance and confidence, and developing and expanding soft technologies aimed at health care promotion and wholeness / A Organiza??o Mundial de Sa?de (OMS) vem dando aten??o especial a procedimentos terap?uticos diferentes dos praticados pela terapia convencional, dentre os quais, a homeopatia, fitoterapia, terapias espirituais e ora??es, que possibilitam a supera??o do modelo puramente medicalizador para a vis?o hol?stica do ser humano. Esta tend?ncia marcada em 1978, na Confer?ncia de Alma Ata, questiona a capacidade da medicina tecnol?gica e especializada na resolu??o dos problemas de sa?de da humanidade. No Brasil, a implanta??o do Sistema ?nico de Sa?de (SUS), em 1998, traz mudan?as para o modelo de aten??o ? sa?de da popula??o, no qual destaca-se, no ?mbito da aten??o b?sica, o Programa de Sa?de da Fam?lia (PSF), a partir de 1994. Neste contexto, apresenta-se um vasto campo de pr?ticas complementares utilizadas na promo??o ? sa?de na preven??o e tratamento de doen?as, o que favorece a compreens?o acerca dos h?bitos e cren?as que orientam as pr?ticas populares. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a percep??o dos usu?rios participantes do grupo Paz e Equil?brio da Unidade de Sa?de da Fam?lia de Nova Cidade - Natal/RN, iniciado em 1999, acerca da rela??o entre a viv?ncia da ora??o e as mudan?as que possam ter ocorrido na sua vida ap?s ingressarem no grupo. Trata-se de estudo de caso, de car?ter descritivo e abordagem qualitativa. Para a coleta de dados optou-se pela t?cnica de entrevista em grupo focal, o qual foi realizado entre janeiro e fevereiro de 2007, utilizando, como instrumentos, um question?rio de caracteriza??o dos pesquisados e o roteiro de discuss?o. O referencial te?rico abordou: a religi?o e a evolu??o do pensamento; as pr?ticas complementares na sa?de; e a religi?o como pr?tica complementar em sa?de. Os entrevistados apontam, como efeitos dessa viv?ncia: redu??o do estresse, da depress?o, aumento da socializa??o, da auto-estima, melhoria na intera??o familiar, conforto, seguran?a, melhoria dos n?veis de press?o arterial e diminui??o do uso de medica??o anti-hipertensiva e psicof?rmacos. Embora a aten??o aos aspectos religiosos e espirituais n?o seja considerada um complemento terap?utico efetivo na assist?ncia ? sa?de, pela maioria dos profissionais, a sua compreens?o e pr?tica podem democratizar saberes e rela??es, tirando, delas, aprendizados que tornem mais capazes a produ??o da sa?de, ampliando a seguran?a e a confian?a, desenvolvendo e aplicando tecnologias leves, que visam ? promo??o e ? integralidade da aten??o em sa?de
