Patient M:
She came in with two full shopping bags full of supplements for her autoimmune conditions that had been worsening everyday over the last 10 years. When she arrived, she was wearing clean, non-toxic gloves, a mask and a hat. She had been on a very strict diet. She has been coming to a nutritionist on regular basis to check on supplements with hope to find a magic bullet and to avoid what foods she is allergic to. Environmentally, extremely sensitive to everything around her, inside and outside of her house. She was totally in despair but never gave up…
I reviewed her history and found out she had had a major car accident 3 years prior to all these symptoms and had been getting worse. Thus, I explained the importance of good circulation and how my bodywork will help with improving the circulation so that her body’s innate healing power can restore its own functions optimally.
I suggested bodywork once everyday by me for 2 weeks.
After 2 weeks, she reported more than 80% of her symptoms disappeared.
Patient J:
She had scheduled for knee replacement surgery in 2 months when she came in with extreme pain and difficulty with walking.
I explained the pain theory and suggested 4 sessions of treatment. In couple sessions, she started noticing big changes in pain level and walking ability improved. And she decided to cancel the surgery and up to present time she dose not have the knee pain as much at all and do treadmill exercise daily.
Patient K:
She has had a life long battle with her health for more than 40 years of her life. She has seen so many specialists in southern states and finally one specialist at Mayo clinic told her as a last advice that she should move to Portland Oregon to find a doctor who can help her. She did move to Portland and took almost 3~4 years to come into my office. Her dreadful migraine headaches with very active seizures and uncontrollable blood pressure, range from over 200 systolic to under 40 diastolic and heart rate from over 150 to 50 and unpredictable severe anxiety attacks….. She had been on very strong prescription medications to control her symptoms without much success. From history, I found out her first car accident at age 1, which she did not know anything about because nobody told her. But I was able to palpate the injured area on the neck and kept asking her injury related history until her mom told her about the car accident at age 1. Starting with bodywork and using many other different modalities and time of therapy, she is now free from major medications, including psychotic medication and migraine headaches and seizures.
Patient C:
This patient has a classical migraine headache. She has been on medications for more than 30 years to control the pain. I suggested her to have twice a week for two weeks of my bodywork to see how much it will help. After two weeks of treatment, she was able to free from medications and head pain.
Patient J:
He came with no hope but giving up his occupation as a farmer. He has been feeling worse energy, mental clarity, very difficult to concentrate, and bunion pain on a big toe. I found out that he had been exposed to lots of sprays and chemicals related farming around the valley area.
I formulated his total cleansing program for 10 days. Then he started feeling so much better but he could not believe his improvement so he tried his own ways of proving… The improvement was real and kept healing enough not to give up his farming up to present time.
Patient M:
She came in for sudden onset heart palpitation triggered by walking uphill at a certain same distance. After examined her back, I explained to her soft tissue build ups, I found, on rib and thoracic spinal joints and this may be one of the main triggers to cause the heart to behave such way of palpitation. After several sessions on the back and ribs, she started improving on the heart palpitation and was able to walk all the way to hilltop without the heart symptoms.
Dr. Kim’s favorite story
Malachi 3:3: “He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver.”
This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God. One of the women offered to find out about the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.
That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.
As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.
The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot, then she thought again about the verse that says: “He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver.” She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined.
The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.
The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, “How do you know when the silver is fully refined?”
He smiled at her and answered, “Oh, that’s easy— when I see my image in it.”
If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that your Creator has His eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you.
