Ricardo Saldia has been preparing to do this type of work since childhood. Son of an Adventist Minister, at an early age he began learning the principles of healthy living and the impact that a balanced lifestyle can have on a individual’s body, mind, and spirit. This led Ricardo to study Behavioral Science and Religious Studies at Pacific Union College in Angwin California. But his thirst for finding a more practical approach to health led him to study the art and technique of Rolfing at the World Headquarters of the Rolf Institute, in Boulder Colorado.

In 2004, Ricardo was introduced to what is known as Quantum Bio-feedback, and he now integrates traditional and modern technologies and techniques. Ricardo Saldia is an innovative and dedicated individual who can blend modern scientific understandings with traditional wisdom, and has created a niche for himself using his expertise with animals/pets, individuals and other forms of organic life. Ricardo believes that in order to have concrete results, one has to address the trinity of the body, mind, and spirit, with strategic planning, and clear goals. The backbone of Ricardo’s approach combines education and personal experience to bring greater levels of awareness so that the client may be better prepared to make the choices and decisions needed to support and promote health and balance.

 

Natural Medicine implies that pain is information, a signal from the body to the individual that something is out of balance, the goal then is to understand the message being broadcasted and not just to get rid of the pain message with drugs and surgery that just cover up symptoms. In Ricardo’s personal experience, the purpose of natural medicine is to support the inherent intelligence of the body and let the body do what it is designed to do, promote life. With the common sense that there are times when the use of synthetic drugs and emergency surgeries are necessary to sustain life, Ricardo supports this as a temporary way of thinking that allows the individual more time to correct the imbalances naturally through increased awareness of self to achieve optimum health.
