2. The resulting picture is reasonable. It can give a strong emotional and sensational aspect of the remedy picture.
3. The signal of the remedy is quite strong.
4. There is mostly not very much noise in the proving as the attention is focused on the remedy by way of the strong smell and taste of the remedy. The essence of the remedy in a way penetrates the whole body of the prover.
Disadvantages1. The result is often fragmentary and lacking many aspects.
2. The proving can be one-sided as it is dependent on one prover.
