Our History
The Institute of Homeopathy James Tyler Kent (IHJTK) is a civil nonprofit organization, founded in 1986, whose purpose is the development and dissemination of Homeopathy, through outpatient social activities, education, research and scientific publications. Our mentor and teacher, Prof. Dr. Alfonso Masi Elizalde, in a coherent and practical way, worked tirelessly to find a method that propitiated a better understanding and attention to various constituent aspects of human beings in their physical, emotional, rational and spiritual nature, and thus constituted a targeted medicine for the individual considered under the highest instance of existential understanding. Our school had the invaluable guidance of this master until 2003, date of his death, but we continue to develop his work, expanding studies, spreading his ideas and promoting meetings between all of the schools that Masi Elizalde founded around the world. Four international meetings have been held since then, with the participation of his several disciples from Latin America and Europe.
The Kentian School, of the IHJTK, where Masi taught continuously for 23 years, held the Masi Elizalde Journeys - Homeopathy Project Without Frontiers, four times a year, in conjunction with the formation of homeopathic physicians during the same period. The material of these Journeys was videotaped (in Spanish) and has been organized and classified into categories - Technical, Philosophy and Materia Medica - are available in VIMEO (50% of the material will still undergo the same process). Masi Elizalde devoted his life to a thorough investigation and refinement of Hahnemann’s writings, incorporating concepts of the evolution of homeopathic thinking, using as references Allen (1989), Kent (1998) and Ghatak (1989). He adopted a model of understanding of the nature of human beings based on important elements of scholastic, classical and modern philosophy, which formed the foundation of his great legacy: The Miasmatic Dynamics and The Anthropological Reference Model, ushered in a decisive stage in homeopathic practice both from the point of view of the study of the Materia Medica as the enhancement of the Homeopathic Technique.
