This is from foxsports... I'm not sure if the All Black medical staff agree with Naholo's claims.
IT’S A MODERN DAY MIRACLE!
NEW All Blacks wing sensation Waisake Naholo declared himself back in the running for a World Cup berth after a rapid recovery from a broken leg using traditional Fijian medicine.
The miracle cure was attributed to “a gift from God,” the Fiji Times reported.
Naholo cracked a fibia during his All Blacks debut against Argentina last month, and after initial treatment in New Zealand, the Fiji-born flyer was told he would be sidelined for three months, putting him out of World Cup contention.
The 24-year-old then turned his back on Western medicine and contacted an uncle in Fiji who specialises in traditional medicine and was told to return to the Pacific island, the Times said.
“If you want to play in the Rugby World Cup, get on the plane and come here,” the uncle, Isei Naiova, said he told Naholo from his home in Nadroumai village, which is renowned among indigenous communities for the healing powers of certain families.
He said he applied traditional leaves known as kawakawarau on Naholo’s leg for four days and when he removed them the injury was gone.
“When I first touched his leg I could feel his bones were damaged,” said Naiova, who added his family had a special gift for healing broken bones.
“I later applied traditional leaves which were removed after four days and as we took the leaves off, I noticed the injury was gone.
“This healing has been performed by our forefathers and has been passed down from generation to generation. It is a gift from God.”
