Abstract: Quality control has become a central term in medicine due to, latest legal requirements. In empiric therapeutics, quality control measures are demanded more and more too. A first approach for handling this extensive task was the foundation of a quality circle for naturopathy by general practitioners in Bonn 1994 as well as in the area of clinical rehabilitation in Bad Wörishofen at the beginning of 1995. The following article summarizes the peculiarities and problems, which are the result of a special, sometimes historically determined point of view of the branch, of the preferred use in the field of prevention and, in the case of chronically ill people, of the therapeutic approach, which is often polypragmatic and always individualized, and finally of therapies, which are not always standardized. On the other hand, the intensified exchange of experience offers new chances, e.g. the perfection of different procedures. Therefore, quality control will have positive consequences, which cannot be estimated today.
