Healing with Oxygen: A Modern Approach to Timeless Medicine

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a powerful medical treatment that enhances the body’s natural healing processes. It’s a simple, non-invasive, and painless therapy that uses increased atmospheric pressure and concentrated oxygen inside a pressurized chamber to support healing and regeneration.

Under normal conditions, oxygen is carried primarily by red blood cells, with only a small amount dissolved in the plasma. However, when oxygen is delivered under pressure during HBOT, significantly more oxygen dissolves into the plasma. This super-oxygenated plasma can reach areas of the body where circulation is reduced or blocked, delivering vital oxygen to tissues that need it most — including the nervous system, lymphatic system, connective tissues, organs, and even bones.

This enhanced oxygen delivery helps the body in multiple ways:

Reduces inflammation and swelling
Supports immune function and bacterial defense
Accelerates tissue repair and wound healing
Promotes angiogenesis — the body’s ability to create new blood vessels and healing pathways

Many patients report noticeable improvements after a series of HBOT sessions, including:

Reduced pain
Improved sleep and stamina
Greater mental clarity
Increased energy
Relief from the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation

In therapeutic applications, HBOT can be combined with a ketogenic diet to enhance outcomes. In a state of high ketosis, cancer cells — which rely heavily on glucose — become vulnerable. Research has shown that when combined with HBOT, ketosis may significantly impair the survival of cancer cells, and in some studies, HBOT has been shown to be as effective or even more effective than radiation in killing certain types of cancer cells.

Better Than Botox? Yes — Naturally.

Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture is a time-honored, holistic alternative to injectables — and the results last.

This ancient practice stimulates the body’s natural production of collagen and keratin through gentle, micro-injuries created by fine, intradermal needles. These needles are strategically placed around key areas such as crow’s feet, lip lines, and the “11s” between the brows. The result? Increased circulation, collagen activation, and a natural inflammatory response that tightens, lifts, and smooths the face — all without toxins or downtime.

Facial muscles are toned, jaw tension is reduced, and the skin begins to visibly glow with renewed vitality.

Each 90-minute session includes:

✨ A full-body acupuncture treatment to address internal imbalances that contribute to aging

✨ Targeted facial acupuncture for lifting, smoothing, and wrinkle reduction

✨ An anti-aging Clayton Shagal marine collagen face mask and deep-penetrating serum

✨ A 60-minute hyperbaric oxygen therapy session to enhance collagen synthesis, reduce bruising, and accelerate cellular repair

This is one of the most powerful, non-invasive anti-aging treatments available — combining ancient wisdom and modern science to help you age gracefully, naturally, and beautifully.

Marine Collagen for Radiant, Lasting Renewal

Clayton Shagal’s 99% pure, non-hydrolyzed native marine collagen is one of the most potent and absorbable forms of collagen available today. Applied after Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture, this advanced serum works synergistically with your body’s natural healing response to support collagen regeneration, tighten skin, and visibly reduce the signs of aging and sun damage.

This powerful post-treatment step enhances your results, helping to restore firmness, elasticity, and a youthful glow — naturally and effectively

Acupuncture

Acupuncture: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Healing

Acupuncture is a time-tested, deeply effective healing modality that quickly reduces pain and inflammation, eases stress and anxiety, strengthens the immune system, supports tissue repair, and restores healthy digestion. It’s also one of the most profoundly restful treatments your body can experience — leaving you feeling deeply relaxed, balanced, and renewed.

To amplify the healing effects, consider adding a 60-minute Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy session before or after your acupuncture treatment. This powerful combination enhances circulation, accelerates recovery, and elevates your body’s natural ability to heal from the inside out.

Degenerative Eye Diseases: Macular Degeneration

Restoring Vision Naturally: A Holistic Approach to Degenerative Eye Diseases

Macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and other degenerative eye conditions can be effectively supported through a specialized acupuncture protocol designed specifically for the eyes.

This comprehensive approach combines:

✔️ Targeted acupuncture points around the eyes and body

✔️ Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (60–90 minutes)

✔️ Essential oils, nutritional supplementation, and lifestyle guidance

Together, these therapies promote improved blood flow, reduce inflammation, and support the regeneration of ocular tissues. Both wet and dry forms of macular degeneration have shown encouraging improvements with this integrative protocol.

Most patients begin to notice enhanced vision or symptom relief within the first few sessions. A minimum of 10 treatments is recommended for optimal results, with each session carefully tailored to address both the root cause and the local eye condition.

Cancer & Essential Oils to Strengthen & Protect the Immune System During & After Cancer Treatment

Essential Oils & Cancer Care

Strengthen and Support the Immune System During and After Cancer Treatment

Essential oils are among the most powerful and ancient forms of natural medicine. These potent plant extracts are derived from flowers, roots, leaves, seeds, and bark — the very lifeblood of the plant. In nature, they protect and sustain the plant’s health, and in the human body, they offer similar therapeutic benefits.

Because of their tiny molecular size, essential oils can penetrate every cell and begin working immediately to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, support detoxification, and — in some cases — disrupt the integrity of cancer stem cells. When used alongside conventional or integrative cancer care, essential oils provide vital immune support and help protect the body during the stress of treatment.

Frankincense, sandalwood, and balsam fir are among the foundational oils used in our cancer care protocol. These oils have demonstrated strong anti-inflammatory, immune-modulating, and cell-protective effects. Just as importantly, essential oils have a profound impact on emotional well-being — an essential aspect of healing, especially for those navigating a cancer diagnosis.

Our Essential Oil Cancer Support Protocol was adapted from the book Essential Oils and Cancer: How to Effectively Use the Right Essential Oils to Confuse and Kill Cancer Cells by Nancy Bennett Ducharme. Since 2020, we’ve successfully guided many patients through this simple, affordable, and empowering protocol as a complement to their treatment plans.

Our Philosophy

Our Philosophy at Dr. Kim’s Acupuncture & Hyperbaric Health

At Dr. Kim’s Acupuncture & Hyperbaric Health, we welcome every patient as part of our ‘ohana — family. Our philosophy is rooted in deep respect for the whole person, with a healing approach that honors the mind, body, spirit, and emotions.

We take time to truly understand each patient’s unique needs and offer personalized, integrative care to support long-term healing, not just symptom relief.

Dr. Kim is a firm believer in God’s healing power, often offering prayer with and for her patients. She also embraces the power of spoken words — whether it’s the promises found in Scripture or the words we speak over ourselves. Healing begins not only in the body, but in how we speak about our bodies and experiences. Instead of saying “my headaches” or “my cancer,” we encourage patients to say “the headaches” or “the cancer” — allowing the mind and body to align with healing and release identification with illness.

✨ From our ‘ohana to yours — welcome to our healing hale.
