"These results indicate that such factors as warmth, empathy, duration of interaction, and the communication of positive expectation might indeed significantly affect clinical outcome. Future investigations will have to determine the relative importance of each of these elements of the patient-practitioner relationship"
Has anyone tried or heard of practitioners using North American white tailed deer, moose, elk or other North American deer-like antlers as a substitute for Lu Rong to tonify kidney Yang. I've got some access to some and want to know if anyone has any experience.
Thanks
