Sumario:The health model provided in the Política Nacional de Atenção à Saúde dos Povos Indígenas (National Policy for the Indigenous People Health) and the participation of the Canela’s people with relation to traditional knowledge of the community and the biomedical services offered was analyzed in this paper. Points out that Canela’s participation has been given through the indigenous health agents and through the social control of local and district councils of indigenous health. Thus, these agents have acted as mere auxiliaries of biomedical technicians, without an articulation with indigenous knowledge formerly existing in the villages. Moreover, the representation in local and district councils expresses a symbolic violence by the state, because the delegation of power given to Canelas is intended to a minimum portion and this fact does not constitute a practice in the village, once the decisions are taken with the participation of all members, not an insignificant amount as the State determines. States that, in the implementation of the current policy has not occurred the recognition of indigenous specificity compared to traditional knowledge. So, it is necessary the construction and promotion of specific and differentiated health actions, which aim to respect the sociocultural aspects of this people.
