Iatromantis is a Greek word whose literal meaning is most simply rendered "[[physician]]-[[seer]]," or "[[medicine-man]]". The iatromantis, a form of Greek "[[shaman]]", is related to other semimythical figures such as [[Abaris]], [[Aristeas]], [[Epimenides]], and [[Hermotimus]]. In the classical period, Aeschylus uses the word to refer to [[Apollo]] and to [[Asclepius]], Apollo's son.

According to Peter Kingsley, iatromantis figures belonged to a wider Greek and Asian shamanic tradition with origins in Central Asia. A main ecstatic, meditative practice of these healer-prophets was [[incubation]] ([[ἐγκοίμησις]], enkoimesis). More than just a medical technique, incubation reportedly allowed a human being to experience a fourth state of consciousness different from sleeping, dreaming, or ordinary waking: a state that Kingsley describes as “consciousness itself” and likens to the turiya or samādhi of the Indian yogic traditions. Kingsley identifies the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Parmenides as an iatromantis. This identification has been described by Oxford academic Mitchell Miller as "fascinating" but also as "very difficult to assess as a truth claim".

Ο ιατρομάντης είναι τίτλος που συναντάται στην αρχαία ελληνική και ασιατική παράδοση. Η λέξη είναι σύνθετη και προέρχεται από τις λέξεις ιατρός και μάντης. Είναι η ελληνική εκδοχή του σαμάνου και σχετίζεται με μυθικές φιγούρες όπως οι Άβαρις Υπερβόρειος, Αριστέας, Επιμενίδης και Ερμότιμος Κλαζομενές.
