title: Das Resonanzphänomen.
abstract: The Resonance Phenomenon In the course of homoeopathic case-taking one can observe an intensive dynamic interaction, during which the patient will mostly experience a feeling of being eventually perceived and taken seriously. Therefore, he will start to tell further unasked details. The associative link through Materia medica knowledge enables the homoeopath to approach even indirectly yet uncovered fields. The more the interview is spontaneous, the greater the chance arises that central key points of the patient can be freed. In such situations a specific sensation can happen, which the author calls resonance phenomenon; it is hard to put into words, but is very clearly felt - in the author&'s case in the region of the solar plexus. At thismoment, the patient as well as the homoeopath realise immediately that a very important point of the patient's history is reached. The idea, essence, problem or character of this key-point has absolutely to be covered by the later prescribed remedy. As this phenomenon is not measurable, there remains the unanswered question whether the conditions which allow its happening are just a placebo effect.
