Is Fu Xi Wen nothing more than the placebo effect?
Fu Xi Wen effectively treats babies and is therefore not likely the result of the placebo effect. The placebo effect is the bogeyman to Western medicine. The worst insult it can throw at an alternative medicine is that it is the result of the placebo effect. Any rational person who honestly looks at the placebo effect would much rather be cured of any disease by the power of his or her own mind than by a pharmaceutical drug with toxic side effects. So it is not our bogeyman. That said, those people who practice Fu Xi Wen do not believe it works because of the placebo effect. I need a miracle, can Fu Xi Wen help me? While I wish I could offer you a miracle, that is absolutely not what I am doing. But I am offering you a set of skills that you can learn that may in fact still transform your life in ways you might by your own volition call “miraculous”. While it can improve any condition, genetic conditions and extremely complicated conditions can often improve but not be cured. Fu Xi Wen
