It's canon, although this greatness could conceivably be attributed to the fact that Elrond held one of the Elven rings of power.

In Laws and Customs Among the Eldar, Tolkien did write something to the effect that fighting would diminish one's healing capability and vice versa because "the dealing of death, even when lawful or under necessity, diminished the power of healing". Buuuut he also wrote this fairly late in life and it totally contradicts the existence of several Elven warriors who displayed at least limited healing ability (Glorfindel in FotR comes to mind, ditto Beleg in Silmarillion), so I choose to disregard it.
