title: [Physician-patient relations in autogenic training and hypnotherapy].
abstract: The paper is divided into two parts. The first deals with aspects of the doctor-patient relationship. It begins with a brief examination of the importance of training as a means of establishing an appropriate relationship and goes on to analyse certain aspects of that relationship. The most significant differences between analytical treatment and short-term therapy are then outlined. In particular, the influence that the imposition of a rigorous limit on the duration of treatment has on both the relationship and the course of the patient's condition is examined. The second part presents cases of treatment by autogenous training and hypnotherapy. Details are given of the use of the autogenous principle in therapy with recourse to a variety of autogenous techniques and the way the therapist can direct the treatment through hypnotherapy. The value of involving the patient's family in the treatment is also pointed out.
