What you’ll find below is an opportunity to view six sessions originally offered via Live-Stream between 2020-2022, now on-demand via our NESH Student Portal with access to each Session for One Month. This is only open to current NESH students & alumni.

These Case-Based Sessions each stand on their own and do not need to be done sequentially.

Many of you over the years asked if it would be possible to offer online case based classes for NESH alumni who are not able to attend our Clinical Class weekends in-person. COVID-19 created a new reality for all of us, and also challenged NESH to think outside the box. During 2020-2022 we were excited to launch a new series of Live-Stream classes only for our NESH alumni called – NESH: The First 30 Years!  WHAT STUDENTS SAID ABOUT THIS COURSE

In addition to focusing on some of the always relevant health issues which were exacerbated by COVID – including respiratory, digestive, and cardiac issues, as well as psychiatric issues, “hysteria”, and anxiety – Dr. Herscu also presented relevant materia medica in each session.

Session #5 = $95 for the Full 6 Hour Course (originally aired May 2022)

TOPIC:  A Structured Discussion on the Approach to Post COVID Health Challenges. We have spoken about the prevention of severe forms of COVID-19 infections, as well as the treatment of the acute infections, AT LENGTH! As well we have spoken at various times on the aftereffects of illness. But I think it is time to have a full structured discussion on the topic. We hope to describe in clear fashion a useful way to consider and tackle the situation at hand. We’ll use case reports (including at least one live patient) to delve into the overall topic which is rapidly turning into a very confusing situation. The hope is that it prepares us to provide the best care for our patients, by discussing common presentations and diving into remedies/materia medica and the repertory.

The reality is there is no avoiding this topic right now. Even beyond the patients who are coming in now with symptoms, we’ll need to understand how to handle patients 3 months down the line, some who say this or that symptom of theirs is from having COVID or is from having gotten the vaccine, etc. Anyone who is in practice is going to need to figure out what’s what and how to deal with the mess that exists now and will exist in the coming months in a rational and coherent way.

Session #5A (first 3 hours)
Topic specifics included: Post Acute COVID-19 Syndrome with 5 cases, including one live case where cardiac issues were the prominent feature. Also explored the topic of hair loss and the materia medica of Bothrops.

Session #5B (second 3 hours)
Topic specifics included: Discussions around vaccine theory, timing, boosters, and sequelae. Review of Acute vs. Chronic prescribing, auto-immune dissease, materia medica of Adonis & Kalmia with reference to other cardiac related remedies and concepts, plus live case of long haul COVID with exhaustion.

Session #4 = $95 for the Full 6 Hour Course (originally aired October/November 2021)

The course recording for Session #4 is also available in German (course text in Portal is however in English).

TOPIC:  Hysteria/Conversion Disorder, the Disquiet Mind, and Imperfect Disease

We have spoken about Anxiety and Related Disorders at length previously, but want to tackle a growing issue of the disquiet mind, the utter overwhelm, and broad reaching fallout from the stress response that has become ubiquitous in our times. We’ll use case reports to delve into the overall topic of what was formerly really poorly described and ascribed as hysteria, which some now diagnose as conversion disorder, by discussing common presentations and diving into remedies/materia medica and the repertory. It is 2021, and see this as a timely and important topic.

Separately, or relatedly, we will begin our session with one very specific difficult issue: The uniquely odd situation of those nearing death exemplified by the COVID-19 emergency crisis. We’ll explore what you are likely to see and how to understand and deal with this situation. There is a relationship between these two topics, which we will further explore in class in the way some patients sometimes change symptoms as they near death.

Session 4 – Part A: (first 3 hours) – recording also available in German
Topic specifics included: Imperfect Disease with 3 COVID-19 cases where severe diarrhea was the prominent feature plus materia medica of Aloe, Croton tiglium, Gambogia, Gratiola, and Podophyllum

TOPIC:  Lingering Disease: Changing the Course of the Future. Sometimes people have a small disease now, but you can see how it is going to play out in 5 years/10 years/20 years, getting WORSE. Modifying it now, when it is small, might make a small difference today, but a HUGE difference then.
