Scientific work
The dream research takes centre stage of Flöttmann's scientific practice. On this field, he is reputed to be an accounted expert. Since 1986 he has deposed 42,000 dreams in a specific database: Dr. Flöttmann's Scientific Encyclopedia of Dream Symbols. This Encyclopedia includes 1,833 dream symbols. It was steadily updated.
If the symbol "hedge" exists 136 times within 42,000 dreams e.g., these 136 dreams are extracted by the computer. Then the scientist analyzes each dream. The great experience of the researcher with dream analysis and the language of the unconsciousness helps to understand the sense of these dreams as well as the personal knowledge of the explored dreamers. The broad fundament of this scientific work builds Dr. Flöttmann's qualification in medicine, in psychoanalysis, in depth psychology, psychiatry, neurology, psychosomatic medicine, Gestalt therapy, graphology, philosophy, phrenology and physiognomy.
Dr. Flöttmann has given many lectures both at home and abroad.
