Founder & Co-Owner, Olive Retreat.

In taking a new path toward offering health as a vocation, Cristina’s Economic and Statistics degree came handy when trying to disentangle the marketing data from the real outcomes of published by the medical sciences, which had her questioning mainstream medical treatments already in 1995. If studies showed that Placebo was better than the medication, why take the risks of such terrible side effects the pharmaceutical interventions presented? (USA no. 1 cause of death from 2020).
That her questions were not welcomed was a sign she was on the right path, and her research enabled her to see the human body in its holistic manifestation, which offered no other chose than to seek solutions, in more ancient and well established traditions, starting with Ayurveda and biochemistry.
