In modern homeopathy, you’ll hear a lot of debate about prescribing approaches. Combination remedies, protocols, detoxes — some say it’s all just a matter what works for each person. But what did Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, actually teach?
In Episode 100 of Strange, Rare, and Peculiar, Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray take on a widespread myth: that Hahnemann used more than one remedy at a time. With primary source references including his personal letters and the 6th edition of the Organon of the Medical Art, they trace how this misconception arose — and why it matters for clinical safety, integrity, and outcomes.
If you’re studying homeopathy, exploring the history of medicine, or trying to understand the principles behind single remedy prescribing, this episode is a must-listen.
