He was a founding director of the DOH's PITAHC and is regularly consulted by the Spa Association of the Philippines and the Department of Trade and Industry. He is a regular speaker on Hilot, indigenous Filipino spirituality, wholistic health and alternative medicine for academic and corporate institutions, including the UP College of Mass Communications, and top local and international spas.

He now dedicates himself full-time to teaching and sharing the art of Hilot to the Philippines and to the world through the Association of Traditional Health Aid Givers, Inc. (ATHAG).

He obtained his Doctorate from the Open International University for Alternative Medicine, and has authored two books ~
