Clinical commentary 臨床

Nineteen medicinals in equal parts, and the one not in Sinseon-toeun-hwan is the stone swallow — a fossil brachiopod, calcined. It is the chapter's only use of it, and the reason is purely in the name: a thing that looks like a bird and is stone, used for a cloud over the eye. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
