Monaco Phenomenon

The Monakov phenomenon is a phenomenon that was described by the Swiss neurologist and psychiatrist Mopakov at the end of the 19th century. He was one of the first scientists to study the effects of hypnosis on the human body.

Monakov believed that hypnosis could help people get rid of various diseases, such as back pain, headaches, insomnia and others. He conducted experiments on his patients using hypnosis to treat various diseases.

In 1889, Monakov published his work “On the Phenomenon of Hypnosis,” in which he described his experiments and results. He also wrote the book “Hypnosis Treatment”, which became popular among doctors and patients.

However, Monakov was not the only scientist who studied hypnosis. In the 19th century, many scientists studied this phenomenon, including Sigmund Freud, who also studied hypnosis and its effect on the human psyche.

Today, hypnosis continues to be a popular treatment for many diseases, but its effectiveness is still a matter of debate among scientists and doctors.



Monakov Phenomenon

The Monakov phenomenon was described by the Swiss neurologist Mopa Kow in 1874. This is a rare type of temporal lobe epilepsy that is characterized by an inability to perceive auditory signals while maintaining normal hearing. Most often, the patient complains of tinnitus; he may mistakenly perceive snatches of conversation and other noises as full-fledged sounds.

The phenomenon was first described by the Swiss neuropathologist Mopa Kow; he created a whole comic legend around her about her amazing hearing qualities. However, the very first experiment he conducted refuted all these stories. It turned out that the sensations were a deception, which was caused by the brain itself in the subject. Further experiments only confirmed the scientist’s assumption. Thus, by carrying out a classical procedure in dark rooms, it was revealed that for one patient the light source was a dark background, while the other did not see light gray walls and an illuminated table with medical instruments on it at all.
