Healing Sanctuary

Hilot is an Indigenous Healing art that is native to the Philippines. It also incorporate massage as one of its healing modality.

Unlike in Massage Therapy which is a foreign modality that is not native in the Philippines, Hilot Masahe is curative rather than relaxing massage. Hilot treats Patient and not just a client, customer, or guest.

This is why modern Massage Therapist ended up in prostitution because the Government Stardardization committee in Massage Therapy forbid the use of the word “Patient” to those who are recieving massage.

This system has been followed also by Tesda Hilot Wellness which follow the same principle implemented by DoH Licensed Massage Therapist.

The system of Home Service Massage and fly by night Spa loosen the therapeutic value of massage.

In Traditional Hilot, we follow the law of Nature. We only treat on day time and not during the night. We even treat our patient on direct sunlight and not on a dim room naked.

Authentic Indigenous Hilot practitioner are not limited giving their craft to anyone who seeks for it. Instead of going to the home of their patient, the Manghihilot open up their own home to be a healing sanctuary for their patient.

Hilot is not found in Spa but in the practitioners Home.

Hilot is our own Healing Modality

Hilot is not just a massage so the Licensed Massage Therapists shoulf not be threatened to loose their jobs because of the rise of modern Hilot.

But in fact, Hilot is the earliest form of Healing in the Philippines and many Manghihilot loose their Jobs and Profession with the rise of Modern Medicine.

The Traditional Manghihilot does not complain when the Philippine Government give importance to the Licensed Massage Therapist by creating the Sanitation Act Law.

The Traditional Manghihilot also hoping to be recognized through the Philippine Traditional and Alternative Medicine Act but instead of recognition, still Hilot are being ignored and accused of being unscientific. What this act recognized are Western Modalities and give them highest respect and call them Doctors such as those who Practice Homeopathy, Naturopathy, Acupuncture, Ayurveda and Chiropractic.

But the Manghihilot and Albularyo still branded as Quack Doctors.

University of the Philippines through Philippine Institute of Traditional and Alternative Healthcare had a convention on Herbal Medicine, but when i inquire about the event i was not accepted to attend because the convention is an event with a payment.

So those who will benefit from modern studies on Herbs are those who have money who can control the market and not the common people.

The Common People will remain as consumer and patient and never will learn to control their life.

Tesda has given hope the common people to take charge of their health by teaching Hilot Wellness Massage, but DoH Licensed Massage Therapist are discrediting Tesda for giving scholarship to the common people in learning Hilot.

The accuse Hilot Wellness Massage NC2 are stealing jobs for the LMT’s but in reality the LMT have long time stole the livelihood and profession of the Manghihilot in the Philippines.

Hilot is for everyone and it is not for only one person. It is not mine to claim that i am Hilot. You are not required to be Certified or Licensed to become a Hilot.

Our Academy only help our graduates to remember the kind of Medicine that their Ancestors have taught them from generation to generation. So there is no standard procedures in doing Hilot.

As Each Patient is has individual differences, so as the type of Hilot Applied to each patient is different and unique.

Unlike in Massage Therapy, their sequences only circulate on Efflurage, Petrissage, Friction, Tapotement and Vibration; but Hilot goes beyond the Physical Manipulation and pass through the mental, emotional, social and spiritual aspect of each individual.

Aside from treating the body, we need to secure also the patients behaviour, its lifestyle and its environment. Healing will not come if these aspect is ignored.

So Licensed Massage Therapist dont be envious with Hilot, because our Craft is far more different from your scope of Practices.

Tawas: A Hilot method of Diagnosis

Tawas is an abstract form of communication whereas the practitioner of Tawas gather information from the subject utilizing tools such as paper, water, candle, oils and others to observe and analyze form and symbols. It is a indigenous art of Divination and Diagnosis practiced by rural folks to determine the cause of illness.

In Hilot or Philippine Traditional Medicine, the cause of illness is not limted to Physical factor but also through emotional, mental,social and spiritual factor thus Filipino believe in Usog, Buyag, Gaba, Bati, Kulam, Engkanto and Multo.

Ancient Filipino view life as a Divine Gift so as in having illness is viewed as a punishment. In this concept of life, Health is a condition of life where you are experiencing good health which is known as kaginhawaan and bad health condition as karamdaman. Wellness and Illness condition of man is a result of mans response in doing their life purpose.

Life is characterized by motion and movement, so in the concept of life purpose there must have growth and progression. When growth and progression is absent into one person not only physically but holistically, Tawas is performed to determine the malady that causes illness and implement cure.

Tawas ritual start with silencing of the mind of both the pratitioner and the recipient. The Magtatawas will ask permission to the Divine Creator to allow him or her be used as a medium of healing and will call on the Higher and Lower self of the patient.

Then using a small piece of blank paper, the magtatawas will swipe it over around the body of the patient from head, shoulder, arms, hands, chest, stomach, legs, feet, and back parts of the body.

The magtatawas will put 3 drops of oil to the palm of the patient and will place the paper on it and be covered with another palm and start to connect one another in a prayer position.

The praying hands will be placed in front of the heart, then to fore head and lastly to the stomach with the paper still inside the praying hands. And the magtatawas will ask the patient to release the hands and will get the paper and will introduce it to the flames of the consecrated lamp or candle and will read the shapes and symbols formed.

From our last Tawas workshop that was held on November 25, 2018 at the Shrine of Luntiang Aghama in San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan they reported that while doing tawas they are like looking at a story board as the read the images formed in the Paper Tawas. Their Psychic senses has also been enhanced and was able to develop Empathy which is essential in doing Healing Works.

From our Workshop we have produced the Millenial Magtatawas from the persons of the following:

Doctor Aris Siazon (Doctor of Homeopathy)
Wilma Villalba
Rovie Dela Cruz
Meliton Siazon

Burping during Hilot Session

Have you experience a manghihilot that burps a lot when doing Hilot? Do you believe that the manghihilot absorbs your negative energy and release it through burping?

Well probably the Manghihilot eats a lot thats why when he do hilot he burps a lot.

But seriously, manghihilot does not absorp negative energy, as manghihilot do heals he or she raise energy within his/her body that creates heat and burn his/her own energy thats why s/he burp. The one s/he burn and release through burping is his/her own energy.

Remember in doing hilot it is not only the client who recieves healing but also the manghihilot.

So when a manghihilot burps a lot during the healing session, s/he is burning too much negative energy within his/her body and release it from his/her body.

The form of releasing negative energy from the client is through burping also, farting, oerspiration, urination or even pooing.

Healing Crisis

This video demonstrate what happens to a person who is recieving Hilot.

When a sick person comes to manghihilot, the person is being filled with clean energy upto the brim and overflow.

Watch the bubble (which is the toxin within the body, this may represent negative energies that affect also the mind, emotion and the spirit).

As clean energy comes in to the body (represented by the faucet water) the unclear energy is being brought up and expelled out, but cleansing doesnt stop there becuase it needed to be thoroughly cleansed.

When someone feel that their ailments become aggravated, that means all negative energies have been purged out. The same thing happen in soul healing. The person will experience mood swings, hatred, bad luck and so on until overflowing love and blessings will flourish.

The work of healing does not stop in addressing pain but ot should work continuesly until we gain the expected result.

When all is well then, the patient becomes now the vessel of possitive energy that s/he also becomes a healer.

The cost of Healthcare

Last time i went to the hospital to let my nephew who is just two years old be checked by a pediatrician. After a long qeue, the name of my nephew have been called and its time for us to seat in front of the Doctors desk.

Without lifting her butt on the chair, the doctor write on her prescription pad for the medicine we should administer to my nephew and a recommendation for a laboratory test for his blood and urine then the doctor asked us to come back when the laboratory result has been made for her to interpret.

Then we left her office and go straight ahead to the cashier to pay the Doctors fee of Php 450.00 ; then we go to the Pharmacy to buy the prescribed medicine the doctoe gave us that cost Php 1,000.00; then we go to the Laboratory and pay again Php 500.00 for the Urine and Blood Test; and on the other day i alone come back to the doctors office for the Laboratory result interpretation that luckily i only pay Php 50.00 for the Hospital Charge.

If we will sum up all the money we spend, it cost me Php 2,000.00 or USD 37.21. This is the cost now for modern Health Care and not all people could afford to have spend Php 2,000.00 a day.

I feel so sorry that i have not that enough time to spend my days with my nephew and family member. If only the principles of Hilot could be applied daily in our life, we could prevent illness like this and much more serious and chronic diseases.

Every home should have someone who knows the Arts and Science of Hilot in preventing and curing simple ailments that will save them from unnecessary expenses such as from hospitalization.

The true cost of Traditional Healthcare is this. It can be seen from the letter that spelled out the word Hilot which is the letter “o” which stands for Oras or time. Spending time with our love ones will prevent the development of illness. We can protect them from any possible harm that might endanger them to our surroundings. And with the time we spend, we could also share our love to them which is the most Powerful Healer in the world that give us life.

Live and Let Live!

Natural Pharmacy

Our land is Blessed with Fertility that it can produce life. All green grass, herbs and tree can grow to our land by simply allowing the seeds covered by soil in time you will see life.

When people get sick and hospitalized, doctor will prescribe medicine that you should buy to the pharmacy to be administered to the patient. And from your doctors prescription you have to ingest different drugs either by mouth or through vein.

In the old times, our Tradicional Medicine Man only administer one herb to restore life of the patient and to recover.

Learning the ways of our ancestors Natural Healing is the best way of preserving our life and maintaining our optimum health.

In Hilot, we do not only care for Human Lives but also we care about the lives of all creation whether be it plant or animal and the world we live in.

Caring for the planet and giving life on it means good life for us as human who cares for mother Earth.

Hope, Happiness and Humility

How will you feel if your patient/ client dies? Will you blame your self from the death of your client?

Dont be sad and blame your self, as manghihilot you have done your part. You are not the healer but only a channel of Healing.

You have already treat the body and it is already healed. But the soul body is not yours to treat but by our creator. As hilot and when your patient die, it is now your duty to deliver the soul of your patient to the creator which is the one who could provide a new body for the soul.

Do not think that you are the most powerful healer in the world.

Remember the first letter of the word Hilot. It is not only giving hope and happiness but it also teach you to become humble all the time.

Prayer and Time

Through prayers we got our answer. As we recite the words to the Universe of our desires, it already been given to us.

Last night i am praying for the health condition of a special someone in my life. Special attention and medication was given so as prayer.

And while praying answer has been given.

“By the Power of Love that give us Life, Peace prevails on Earth.”

This i continually recite until some voice in my head tells me that the Power of Love will cure illness of the lonely soul.

Sometimes a person get sick because they feel that they have been neglected and ignored. And this person nurtured that feeling that s/he is not important that it comes to his/her mind that its better for them to get sick and die.

With that in their mind they loose their own motivation to live.

They eat little. They become weak. They become stink because proper hygiene was not observed. And so on…

Love on other hand as we have mentioned is the force that gives life.

By spending our time to the sick person; Talking to them and hear their stories; Exerting effort of moving their muscles in exercise and physical mabipulation; Spoon feeding them and assisting them to drink; are all possitive energies that we share to the person that could help them recover their health and achieve wellness in life.

The power of prayer to heal is not only through the amount of words we say but through the quality of time we spend with the patient and to the actions we perform to the patient.
