The concurrent therapy of mothers and their psychosomatic infants seems to indicate almost always that it is the baby's body that is engaged in the expression of a psychological conflict of the mother. The conflicts are usually on a mental or psychological level, but they may also be psychosomatic. These cases are difficult to treat because of the "miraculous" flight into health that may occur for the child. The possibility of this flight sometimes technically necessitates some delaying tactics on the part of the therapist until a sufficient transference reaction in the mother has taken place. This would enable the therapy to continue even though the infant has "gotten well." Eventually the therapeutic group may be reduced to the mother and therapist alone, without the child present.
