Butch -- Vitex Question and apology to chris

[Guest guest]

first and foremost -- chris, please accept my apology regarding my typo and you

name. i

am a terrible typist and even worse early in the morning. i am truely sorry.

 

butch,

 

thanks for your response. i regret if i did not make myself clear on one point.

that is,

regarding the need for certain kinds of " scientific " study. i completely

understand the

reasons why this is not always possible i also understand the limitations and

bias of much

of the research that does exist. it has its place; but, it is not the be all and

end all. this is

an issue i must deal with professionally outside of the realm of essential oils.

with regards

to research, i believe that there more than one way to approach it. qualitative

research is

as valid and valuable as quantitative. clinical experience and case study is

also very

important. this is one reason why i appreciate chuck woodfield's (am i

remembering his

name correctly?) willingness to share his clinical experience and expertise. i

hope that

others are willing to do the same without fear of reprisal.

 

thanks.
