The polarity analysis refines rapid remedy selection in acute cases.
This paper presents the polarity analysis, the most recent of all methods for homeopathic remedy selection. It is a development of Bönninghausen's approach, which allows highly precise remedy determinations with minimal time expenditure. The practical procedure is explained using two acute illnesses. Subsequently, the prospectively collected results of the homeopathic treatment of the 2011 influenza epidemic, which in Switzerland consisted of 75% H1N1 cases (swine flu), are presented and discussed.
