In the 1940s, I had witnessed that my parents and masters had cured or improved many illnesses and conditions, but those knowledge are still new to most Americans today. Why? The answer is --- most Americans, including the healthcare providers, do not aware of the true value of the Chinese Medical Dao. The Chinese Medical-Dao included, but is not limited to, the following:
1) The medical mainstream is the patients, but not the doctors. 2) The patients’ daily foods are useful medicines, as well as poisons. 3) Appropriate medical knowledge is the best tool for self-care. 4) Everyone has a natural healing power within his body. 5) The best way to heal a patient is to find out and follow his within natural healing power, instead of fighting against it. 6) A healthcare provider should treat a patient holistically, rather than apply a single “tunnel vision” to diagnose and treat the symptoms of his disease or condition. 7) Comparing to drugs, natural medicines are much easier to be accepted properly by human body. However, it is the parents’ obligation to learn the advantages and the side effects of the foods, and pass it down to their children. 8) When anyone is sick, one or more organs might need a break, such as “take a nap”, or even go for “hibernation” by itself. And, any inappropriate treatment could disturb the natural healing power within his body, and also caused severe damage as a result.
In those Ruseto College’s programs, we provide in-depth explanations of the Chinese Medical-Dao, from the Yin-Yang Theory, Five-Element Theory, etc. to Feng-Shui, Fortune-Telling, and the improvement or even the cure of most diseases.
I would like to encourage you to enroll in Ruseto College’s program(s) and learn how to properly take care of your own health, your family, and the public. For more information please refer to our websites, the www.ruseto as well as my personal publications, such as the series of Medical Revolution (1), (2), (3)….
Sincerely,
Pao-Chin R. Huang President of Ruseto College
B) Vision, Purpose, & Supports
1) Vision :
The name Ruseto means love, mercy, hope, peace, health, share and more; and the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) includes Acupuncture, Chinese natural medicines, Tuina, Qigong, Feng-shui, etc., which provides people with more preventative healthcare options, as well as actually curing illnesses, rather than just treating the symptoms. Unfortunately, for centuries, people have been undergoing too many kinds of surgeries, which according to the TCM does not actually cure the root cause of the ailment. Therefore, we need to educate the people to combine the TCM and Western Medicine together. Ruseto College began its operations in 1987 as the Ruseto Oriental Institute to educate the public. To better serve the society, in late 1991, the School applied for approval from the State of Colorado and was officially recognized in March, 1992. The school seeks to enroll more students and provides them with the excellent knowledge and skills to be able to carry out its goal --- love, mercy, hope, peace, health, share, and more, to be able to cut down medical expenses and keep people in good health worldwide.
2) Purpose :
To educate the public, especially the students, in order to keep people in good health, as well as to cut down their medical expenses, worldwide.

You are welcome to join with Mr. Huangs and continue to run their world-reknown clinic called the Ruseto Center, (in US) which was established in 1986.

Please visit our website, the ruseto.org, and find out why so many people were told by their healthcare professionals that they would die in six months or two weeks, but they had lived happily for some more years or even longer. There is one thing for sure - - - You are 24 hours a day and 365 days a year "stick" with your own body, mind, and spirit, which no one else could achieve it for you. In other words, healthcare is similar to driving a car, you are the driver and none of the passengers should interfere your driving. You are the boss in your healthcare, you should know when, who ( healthcare professionals), how often, and what kinds of care or treatment do you needed from time to time. However, to enroll in the Ruseto College's program(s) may be one of the best investments in your life. Good luck!

Program II --- Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine ( 2,160 hours )
In China, acupuncture is a traditional-form of surgery, especially for treating boils, cysts, tumors and cancers. However, the Chinese people also knew how to use natural medicines, massage and qigong to turn the tumors and cancers into pimples or boils, and let them pop out of their bodies without cutting the skin and muscles open. Therefore, you may consider that modern acupuncture is a sort of “deep-acu-massage,” which works very well with herbal-chemical effects in healthcare.
On the contrary, you may consider that the modern acupuncture is an acu-surgery, which can heal almost all kinds of illnesses, but might hardly damage any body-tissues. Therefore, we encourage you to enroll in this program to be able to keep yourself in good health and to serve your community, lowering down everyone’s medical expenses.
By the way, students who has completed the above program, Traditional Chinese Massage, may transfer most of those credits to this program.

Program III --- Revolutionary Healthcare (1,152 Hours)
This 1-year, correspondence, program is especially designed to provide acupuncturists, physicians, chiropractors, and those (included nurses, physical therapists, and massage therapists) who have excellent medical related experience, with high-quality and low-cost techniques of healthcare. It may help them to achieve quick, effective and persistent results of treatments. However, this program is based on Chinese Medical Dao, and it is good for everyone to learn to take care of himself/ herself.
This program consists of 80 Class-Hours and 496 Correspondent-Hours home study each semester; the correspondent hours can be achieved through mails and emails, which deals with questions and answers of assignments and researches. The 80 class hours can be scheduled and started at the beginning, the middle, and/ or the end of each semester as an intense training for the students overseas. It is a good idea for very healthcare provider to keep my belief, “Medical Sense or Common Sense, Cure Makes Sense!” in his/ her mind, and never keep any cure as a secret.

B) Vision, Purpose, & Supports
1) Vision
The name Ruseto means love, mercy, hope, peace, health, share and more; and the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) includes Acupuncture, Chinese natural medicines, Tuina, Qigong, Feng-shui, etc., which provides people with more preventative healthcare options, as well as actually curing illnesses, rather than just treating the symptoms.
Unfortunately, for centuries, people have been undergoing too many kinds of surgeries, which according to the TCM does not actually cure the root cause of the ailment. Therefore, we need to educate the people to combine the TCM and Western Medicine together.
Ruseto College began its operations in 1987 as the Ruseto Oriental Institute to educate the public. To better serve the society, in late 1991, the School applied for approval from the State of Colorado and was officially recognized in March, 1992. The school seeks to enroll more students and provides them with the excellent knowledge and skills to be able to carry out its goal --- love, mercy, hope, peace, health, share, and more, to be able to cut down medical expenses and keep people in good health worldwide.

Please visit our website, the ruseto.org, and find out why so many people were told by their healthcare professionals that they would die in six months or two weeks, but they had lived happily for some more years or even longer.
There is one thing for sure - - - You are 24 hours a day and 365 days a year "stick" with your own body, mind, and spirit, which no one else could achieve it for you. In other words, healthcare is similar to driving a car, you are the driver and none of the passengers should interfere your driving.
You are the boss in your healthcare, you should know when, who ( healthcare professionals), how often, and what kinds of care or treatment do you needed from time to time. However, to enroll in the Ruseto College's program(s) may be one of the best investments in your life. Good luck!
Welcome to Ruseto College
At Ruseto College, we teach traditional Chinese medicine --- including massage, acupuncture, natural Chinese medicines, moxibustion, cupping, qigong, Yi-Jing, Feng-Shui, etc. We also operate professional and student Clinic. We offer certificate programs in Traditional Chinese Massage, Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, as well as the unique Revolutionary Healthcare. We are located in Boulder, Colorado and providing our students with the hands-on experience and knowledge necessary to help them develop successful careers.
In the 1940s, I had witnessed that my parents and masters had cured or improved many illnesses and conditions, but those knowledge are still new to most Americans today. Why? The answer is --- most Americans, including the healthcare providers, do not aware of the true value of the Chinese Medical-Dao. The Chinese Medical-Dao included, but is not limited to, the following:
1) The medical mainstream is the patients, but not the doctors.
2) The patients’ daily foods are useful medicines, as well as poisons.
3) Appropriate medical knowledge is the best tool for self-care.
4) Everyone has a natural healing power within his body.
5) The best way to heal a patient is to find out and follow his within natural healing power, instead of fighting against it.
6) A healthcare provider should treat a patient holistically, rather than apply a single “tunnel vision” to diagnose and treat the symptoms of his disease or condition.
7) Comparing to drugs, natural medicines are much easier to be accepted properly by human body. However, it is the parents’ obligation to learn the advantages and the side effects of the foods, and pass it down to their children.
8) When anyone is sick, one or more organs might need a break, such as “take a nap”, or even go for “hibernation” by itself. And, any inappropriate treatment could disturb the natural healing power within his body, and also caused severe damage as a result.
In those Ruseto College’s programs, we provide in-depth explanations of the Chinese Medical-Dao, from the Yin-Yang Theory, Five-Element Theory, etc. to Feng-Shui, Fortune-Telling, and the improvement or even the cure of most diseases.

Program II --- Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine ( 2,160 hours )
In China, acupuncture is a traditional-form of surgery, especially for treating boils, cysts, tumors and cancers. However, the Chinese people also knew how to use natural medicines, massage and qigong to turn the tumors and cancers into pimples or boils, and let them pop out of their bodies without cutting the skin and muscles open. Therefore, you may consider that modern acupuncture is a sort of “deep-acu-massage,” which works very well with herbal-chemical effects in healthcare.
On the contrary, you may consider that the modern acupuncture is an acu-surgery, which can heal almost all kinds of illnesses, but might hardly damage any body-tissues. Therefore, we encourage you to enroll in this program to be able to keep yourself in good health and to serve your community, lowering down everyone’s medical expenses.
By the way, students who has completed the above program, Traditional Chinese Massage, may transfer most of those credits to this program.

PROGRAM - 2
ACUPUNCTURE & CHINESE MEDICINE, 2,160 Hours
Objectives: In China, in the past acupuncture is a traditional-form of surgery, ranged from acu-puncture to removal of tumors and cancers. However, the Chinese people also knew how to use natural medicines to turn the tumors and cancers into pimples or boils, and let them pop out of their bodies without cutting the skin and muscles opened. Therefore, you may consider that modern acupuncture is a sort of “deep-acu-massage”, which works very well with herbal chemical effects in healthcare. On the contrary, you may consider that the modern acupuncture is an acu-surgery, which can heal almost all kinds of illnesses, but might hardly damage any body-tissues. Therefore, we encourage you to enroll in this program to be able to keep yourself in good health and to serve your community, lowering down everyone’s medical expenses.
