In a nutshell

You've studied ballistics, weapons and the nature of the enemy. You're beginning to learn how to use the rangefinder that is the Repertoire. But now it's time to study the different types of ammunition and learn how to shoot! The Practitioner now has a good grasp of the science, but still needs to acquire the Art, and forge his own personal touch.
With over 150 hours of medical studies, this time you'll be able to prescribe with a clear conscience, and see where others cannot. Better still, medical subject matter, which appears to the untrained eye as a hodgepodge of symptoms, will seem logical to you, with its signs coming from the miasma(s), the common signs of disease, and the characteristic signs of the drug.
Above all, you will now study the revolution within the revolution, i.e. liquid-phase prescribing, which makes it possible to fine-tune dosage to the patient's sensitivity. You will also study the different routes of administration, making you a Master in the Art of Healing.
At last, you'll leave the harbor with all sails set!

Topics covered

  1. Examination of the chronically ill patient
    A thorough history and careful observation (verbal and non-verbal) enable an individualized homeopathic prescription.

The program

Principles (±28 hours)

We conclude our examination of patients with a study of the specific features of chronic cases. Then we'll look at the special case of mental illness and alternating diseases. Finally, the in-depth study of the new posology will be the revolution within the revolution. No stone will be left unturned in this important study of our medicines: how to prepare them, how to administer them. From now on, you'll belong to the very select club of 5% of homeopaths who can claim to have studied and understood Hahnemann. It's up to you to complete the edifice.

Clinical approach (±21.5 hours)

We must constantly study the human dough in which we immerse ourselves. The more cases you see, the better you'll become. Clearly, the cases will be easier for you to decode now that your mind has been trained in the particular mental gymnastics of the Organon. There are some thirty cases here, each telling a different story.

Medical Subjects (±151 hours, 42 drugs)

This is the "big slab" of the Practitioner level! You'll see how vividly Dr. Broussalian depicts the properties of drugs, as if an artificial patient were standing in front of you.
Four hours of training on the Kent Repertory complete this level.

Who is Doctor Edouard Broussalian?

Born in 1962, he studied Kent's Organon and Repertory on his own at the age of 15, benefiting from the experience of his father Georges, himself a direct pupil of Geneva-based homeopathic master Dr Pierre Schmidt, who had travelled to the USA in 1922 to study with Kent's disciples.
Throughout his medical studies at Grenoble University, he continued to prescribe for nursing staff and their families. When he became an intern, he achieved resounding results in the psychiatry department, where he began his career. Then, throughout the hospital, he continued to achieve astonishing results, which sometimes got him into trouble.
He settled in Annecy in 1989, and from then on began an overflowing practice. To date, he has more than 130,000 cases to his credit.
He wrote books that quickly became standard references, such as his first complete translation of the Kent Repertory, as well as numerous articles.
When asked "Why Edouard Broussalian?", his students say it's because of his human qualities of benevolence, generosity, sharing, rigour and accuracy, which come together at every level of his teaching.

What is the online course format?

Course videos are available on an online platform.

Is the IHS accredited by state institutions?

Our school is too committed, too wholehearted, to be recognized by the faculty and public institutions.
Clémenceau said: "Revolution is a block! And so it is with homeopathy: it is a single block, revolutionizing therapeutics. Such a truth is not yet ready to be heard in a world governed by industrial interests.

Testimonials

The most serious and high-quality school
After a disappointing experience with another homeopathy training program, I had the chance to discover Dr. Édouard Broussalian on YouTube. That was in 2018, and it marked a real turning point. I immediately started his training by joining the school, and from the very first weeks, the International Homeopathic School (formerly Planète Homéopathie) struck me as the most serious and high-quality school in the French-speaking world.
What fundamentally distinguishes this training is its commitment to PURE Homeopathy. To my knowledge, it is the only school that encourages us to study Samuel Hahnemann's Organon of the Art of Healing in depth. The teaching is based on the original doctrine and scrupulously follows the writings of the Master, as practiced by the great names of 20th-century homeopathy. In addition, numerous clinical cases enrich the learning experience, making it more lively.
Dr. Broussalian is an outstanding teacher. His knowledge and experience are vast, and he conveys them with rare clarity and passion. Here, we don't just skim the surface of homeopathy: we dive into its most fundamental and effective principles.
If you are looking for a school that will introduce you to true homeopathy, without compromise or modern deviations, you are making the right choice by joining the IHS.
For me, this training was a real revolution in my life!
Christophe R. (France)

My belief in keeping homeopathy alive is this:
We need to teach ordinary people how to treat everyday ailments, such as colds, flu, coughs, bronchitis, and sinusitis, using homeopathy, so that demand for homeopathic remedies from general practitioners comes from the bottom up.
In the 1970s, there was a journal called Les annales homéopathiques (Homeopathic Annals) which described either a polychrest or the symptoms of a disease and how to treat it.
I think a journal aimed at the general public would be a significant plus, especially if it could be sent by email, which would be easy.
I sincerely hope that your school will be successful and that many homeopathic doctors will flourish thanks to your courses.
I am desperate to find one in my area, around Romans-sur-Isère in the Drôme department.
I wish you all the best for the coming year.
Claudine T

You can't understand homeopathy until you've studied it!
That's what I realized when I finished the last packages and thought back to what I knew before my course. Studying the text left behind by its creator—the Organon—feels like both an obstacle course and a true initiation. Homeopathy cannot be understood by those who only scratch the surface! In this age of turbo training, it is very enjoyable and educational to study over three or four years, in concentric circles of integration, both the laws and principles and the materia medica. A solid foundation for solid results. Thank you to Édouard Broussalian for his teaching skills, which make the lessons so lively, and for his human qualities during the seminars.
