Higher Institute of Traditional Medicine

Ismet, (Institute of Traditional Medicine) was founded in 1992, with José Luis Badrena, who had previously studied Naturopathy and Traditional Chinese Medicine, completing his training in China where he performed a postgraduate course. His experience in this country deeply marked him. He saw the excellent results that were available with traditional medicines and the almost total absence of side effects.

Since in our country there are virtually no good schools, this led him to the creation of Ismet, to give a more solid training to possible future professionals of the traditional medicines.

Since, to date, Ismet has continued to evolve, expanding its training offer studies of Homeopathy, Shiatsu, Osteopathy and Massage Therapy daily and incorporating lessons learned over the years, both in training courses as in clinical practice to new students in these disciplines.

Parallel to the creation of the school, he also launched the clinic, with the dual purpose of contributing to research with the implementation of the methods studied and serves as a vital complement to the training of their students. Throughout these years, the thousands of people who have gone through clinical Ismet enjoy the goodness of treatments using natural methods of Health, and reporting to turn a large database that has statistical studies on the effectiveness of different treatments.

At present and for the purpose of reaching the maximum number of people and used this instrument for which there are no borders, we aim to provide access to all those who desire to become a solid and guaranteed in these specialties.
