If I recall, Aragorn specifically attributes his healing gifts to the bit of the 'half-elven' strain he has. So it might not be the best case in point for general Dunedainiac Arts.
But wasn't Aragorn's "half-elven" strain attributable to him being a descendant of the line of Elros? In which case attributing his healing skills to that strain is akin to attributing it his Numenorean descent. Also, it is by his healing skills that Aragorn is recognised in Minas Tirith as Isildur's heir, suggesting that it was part of his Numenorean ancestry.

By the way, welcome back, Mr Platypus. Good to see you again. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
