Does the “totality of symptoms” mean every symptom belongs in the prescription? In this episode, Denise and Alastair dig into one of the more difficult skills in homeopathic case analysis: determining which symptoms are actually relevant to the case in front of you.

Is the single remedy still a foundational principle of homeopathy—or has it become just one prescribing style among many?
Denise and Alastair revisit Hahnemann’s writings, the 1833 double-remedy experiment, and the historical record behind one of homeopathy’s most debated principles. The bigger question: how much can homeopathy change before it becomes something else?

In this episode of Strange, Rare & Peculiar, Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray get into the nitty-gritty of homeopathic provings: what Hahnemann said about them in the Organon, how a proving is conducted, how symptoms are collected and eventually become repertory rubrics, and the very different proving methodologies that have developed within homeopathy.

Can homeopathy evolve without losing its principles? Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray explore Hahnemann’s foundational ideas, modern homeopathic prescribing, and where there is room for homeopathy to grow.
