Why a prescription? If the patient can get a placebo fix without a prescription, isn't that better?

Of course having a "healer" present with a "prescription" may make people feel better. So maybe prescribing crystals is better than pharmacy homeopathic remedies.

However, none of this needs to cost $400. Given that these are all placebos, they should cheap and safe.
