| 6/23/26 | 121: Homeopathy Case Analysis: Why One Method Isn’t Enough | How does a homeopath move from case taking to a remedy recommendation? In this episode, Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray explore the complexities of homeopathy case analysis and why there is no single method, shortcut, protocol, or formula that works for every case.They discuss the many ways to look at a case — including totality, mapping, organ affinity, physical generals, symptom constellations, miasms, polarity, keynotes, and the clinical judgment required to know which lens fits. This conversation is about what happens between case taking and remedy selection, and why careful analysis is essential to the practice of classical homeopathy.They also answer listeners’ questions about how to describe homeopathy accurately and legally, whether homeopaths should participate in provings, and which materia medica and repertories are best for students and newer practitioners.Links mentioned in this episode:Give the Gift of Homeopathy Auction — supporting the HHN Care Grant Program.AHE Open House: Inside AHE — Training, Clinic, and Student Life — June 24 at 7 pm Eastern.Homeopathy & Integrative Wellness Free Webinar Series with Denise Straiges.Academy of Homeopathy Education Events PageHomeopathy Help Network — request care or learn more about accessible homeopathy services.HHN Care Grant ProgramStrange, Rare & Peculiar is a weekly podcast with Denise Straiges and Alastair Gray of the Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy and the Academy of Homeopathy Education.This season, we’re focusing on truth — what it means to Aude Sapere (“dare to know”) in homeopathy today.
