201 fMRI- The Patient-Acupuncturist Relationship • Vitaly Napadow

Any seasoned practitioner leans on the patient practitioner relationship. There is something in the interaction that cannot be separated from the response they have to our treatment. 

In this conversation with Vitaly Napadow we discuss the Art of Medicine and how fMRI imaging from the brains of patients and practitioners with an established clinical relationship gives us a breathtaking glimpse into how our brains mutually interact with each other. And more importantly, how that can affect clinical results.

Listen into this discussion of mirroring, rapport, neuroplasticity and how human connection and therapeutic results are intimately connected.
