104: Homeopathy for Acute Conditions Part 2

Acute cases aren’t always simple — and there’s often more to think about than you might realize.

In Part 2 of this special conversation on Strange, Rare & Peculiar, Denise and Alastair explore the art of clinical decision-making in homeopathy for acute care.

From case tools like LoCoMoCo (Location, Complaint, Modality, Concomitant) and CLAMS (Condition, Location, Aetiology, Modality, Sensation), to key concepts from the Organon, they break down what it really takes to prescribe well in acutes.

You’ll hear:

  • Why understanding the complete symptom is the foundation of good prescribing

  • What makes a symptom strange, rare, and peculiar (Aphorism 153)

  • Why Hahnemann insisted we do the work — even in “simple” acute cases

  • Why AHE students receive intensive training in acute prescribing — and why that matters

📍New here? Start with Episode 103 (Part 1) before diving into this one.

🎧 Listen now and rethink what it really means to observe, understand, and act in acute cases.


  • Feeling stuck in an acute situation? Visit HomeopathyHelpNow.com to connect with a trained homeopath.
  • Have you ever followed a protocol or used combo remedies? We’re doing a research study — and your experience matters. 📧 Email research@hohmfoundation.org to participate in a one-time focus group.

Welcome to Strange, Rare & Peculiar — 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. From Hahnemann’s original insights to the realities of modern practice, research, and education, Denise and Alastair bring over 50 years of experience to conversations that challenge assumptions and invite curiosity.

🎧 If you’re ready to look deeper — beyond trends, beyond opinion — join the conversation and rediscover what homeopathy truly is.

103: Homeopathy for Acute Conditions: Part 1

This week, we’re talking about acute prescribing in homeopathy—what it is, what it isn’t, and why it’s so often misunderstood.


What actually makes something acute? When should you prescribe… and when should you let the body do its job?

And why don’t homeopaths just take a remedy every time they get sick?


We break down how acutes relate to your chronic state, why over-prescribing can backfire, and why rest is sometimes the most “homeopathic” choice of all.
If you want a clearer, smarter way to think about homeopathic acute care, this episode is your guide. Stay tuned for part 2!
