O3D Infusion Therapy Case Presentation in conjunction with COVID

A few weeks ago I introduced O3D Infusion Therapy to you and what a powerful therapy it can be for anyone with ANY health condition. 

Below is a brief video case presentation explaining how we took care of a super-kind person with moderately-severe COVID who also had severe co-morbidities.  To be clear, she was NOT doing well before our support.

Please watch the video to hear the results in this case and the success we had. O3D Infusion Therapy is powerful in many ways just as it was here. 

As I mentioned before, I am convinced that it can be beneficial to almost everyone. Whether you are dealing with acute OR chronic inflammation, post-infection fatigue, immune system issues, acute or chronic infections, diabetes, cancer, Lyme disease, lupus, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, neurological conditions, dementia, or COVID, I urge you to give it a try.

Please feel free to call the office at (818) 957-6909 if you have questions.


To read more on my research of O3D read that blog article here.

Have a great week, and as always, please feel free to pass this along!

Do You Need the ONE Therapy to Rule Them All?

I want to talk about the new O3D Infusion therapy available here at Oasis Family Medicine. I would be remiss if I didn't share my thoughts on this therapy with you, and while I don't normally push a particular treatment or therapy, this is one time I will make that exception. You know the saying, what's the "one thing" that I would take with me if I were stranded on a desert island? Well, O3D Infusion therapy would be it! This powerful therapy is something that I strongly believe in and would encourage everyone - yes, I mean EVERYONE - to consider for themselves and their family. I have spent a significant amount of time and effort in researching and learning about O3D Infusion therapy, and I am convinced that it can be beneficial to most everyone. If you are dealing with ANY health issues at all, acute OR chronic - inflammation, post-infection fatigue, immune system issues, acute or chronic infections, diabetes, cancer, Lyme disease, lupus, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, neurological conditions, dementia, and more - I urge you to give it a try.

What is O3D Infusion therapy and what does it do?

Basically, this therapy takes your entire blood volume and bathes it with a continuous flow of ozone to super-oxygenate it, while at the same time, it filters out the unwanted stuff - inflammatory proteins, heavy metals, viruses, bacteria, fungi, and more. In other words, it OXYGENATES AND CLEANS your blood. Ozone, the 'super oxygen,' has beneficial effects on every part of the body, is an incredible detoxifier, rejuvenator, and physiologic energizer.

This therapy improves blood flow, improves cellular healing, improves cellular oxygen utilization, and modulates your immune system. It is anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal, and it is great for slowing down aging. A vital benefit is that it improves mitochondrial efficiency. What is mitochondria, you ask? Without getting too technical, the mitochondria is much like a power generator, giving power and energy to a cell so that it may carry out its functions. In other words, if a tissue is designed to do extensive work (such as your brain or muscle tissues), the cells in the brain or muscle tissue will have more mitochondria. Healthy mitochondria = healthy cells = healthy body.)

Most other places that offer this therapy charge between $1,500 and $5,000, but we are happy to say that we can offer O3D Infusion therapy at the same high quality but at a much lower price. Currently, we are offering O3D Infusion therapy for $100 off the first session. For specific fee details (often we can bill the procedure through insurance), please call the office at (818) 957-6909.

To find out more about O3D Infusion therapy, you can visit my blog here: Case Study of A Person with C()V!D-!9 at Oasis or go to our website. There is an illustration and explanation of O3D therapy at the bottom of the page. I have undergone this therapy myself, and I can testify to the benefits!

Please watch my video below, and feel free to call the office at (818) 957-6909 if you have questions.


Have a great week, and as always, please feel free to pass this along!

Is High Blood Pressure Giving You Higher Blood Pressure?


The most commonly diagnosed medical condition in the United States is high blood pressure, which is called “hypertension” in medical jargon.  Guess what?  That means multiple blood pressure medications are among the top 10 most commonly prescribed drugs. Of course these medications are needed sometimes, especially in emergency situations.  However, these medications can cause undesirable side effects.  At Oasis Family Medicine, we find it’s better to address the underlying causes of high blood pressure.

First, why should you be concerned about high blood pressure? Because high blood pressure increases the risk of heart attack, heart failure, kidney failure, diabetes and peripheral vascular disease.

Check THIS out… 30% of the population has high blood pressure, and ANOTHER 30% has pre-hypertension. 

Diet and lifestyle changes are the most effective approach according to study after study after study after study after study… you get the drift :)

Instead of treating symptoms with drugs, address the actual causes of high blood pressure for better health that is lasting.  Studies have shown that lifestyle changes alone can reduce risk of heart disease by a dramatic 90%!  How much was that?! 90%!  

Regular exercise is one of the best ways known to control high blood pressure. Other important factors include a whole foods diet rich in plant fiber and low in sugar and sodium, maintaining a healthy weight, not smoking, and managing stress.  Managing stress is very important and is beneficially managed through activities like yoga, meditation, walking, and laughter.

At Oasis Family Medicine, we look for WHY the person has high blood pressure rather than simply at what can be done to lower it; it’s a person-centered approach, versus a disease-centered one. Aside from the lifestyle habits just mentioned, other factors to consider include genetic predispositions, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental triggers, such as:

  • Deficiencies in nutrients like potassium, taurine, biotin, vitamin D, vitamin C, vitamin B1, choline, magnesium and CoQ10.
  • Too much sodium without balancing it with other minerals, especially potassium.
  • Magnesium deficiency. Most people (around 70-95% of the U.S. population) are deficient in magnesium, which can help relax the blood vessels.
  • Toxic levels of certain heavy metals, especially mercury.
  • Chronic systemic inflammation.
  • Elevated blood sugar, including diabetes and pre-diabetes.
  • Hormonal imbalances can lead to high blood pressure.



We at Oasis Family Medicine address the ROOT CAUSE of high blood pressure by addressing these factors.  Word of caution: Please don’t just go buy all of the aforementioned nutrients and expect them to work as they must be in the right form and balanced appropriately with other nutrients to obtain optimal benefits.

I hope you found this useful and as always, please feel free to help a friend or family member by passing this video along to someone who might have high blood pressure, or even pre-hypertension.

Again, if you want to make sure you get these helpful health tips on a weekly basis, please subscribe to this blog or this video. Be sure to watch at 2:50 where I mention some key nutrients!

Is Strenuous Exercise Bad for Me?



Naturally, my curiosity was peeked when I read about this study that basically says strenuous exercise is bad for people.  I thought, ‘Interesting’. Then I thought, ‘Shoot, I hope this study is not well done’.  I didn’t want strenuous exercise to be bad for me because, frankly, on occasion, I LOVE ME MY STRENUOUS EXERCISE!

Let me break down what the study basically says:
  • No exercise = you die early.
  • Strenuous jogging = you die early (“not statistically different than the non-joggers”).
  • Light or moderate jogging = Longest life.  Specifically, a total of 1-2.4 hours per week divided into 2-3 sessions gives a total of 6 more years of life than non-exercisers.  That’s a lot of extra time on this planet!  Not many (if any) medications can do that!

The study was long term and, in my opinion, is decently legit.

Ok.  So that sucks for me, right?!  Strenuous exercise is part of my weekly routine.  Fortunately for me, some easy workouts and some medium workouts are also part of my weekly routine.  

As the conclusion in the Abstract states, “The findings suggest a U-shaped association between all-cause mortality and dose of jogging as calibrated by pace, quantity, and frequency of jogging.” 

Over the years, my professional advice has always been and will continue to be that people should move regularly, EVERY day.  That’s it.  It doesn’t have to be strenuous, but movement is the key and every day is the other key.  That is what I firmly believe.  There’s a reason that it has been said that “sitting is the new smoking”. 

So, this study tells us that regularly exercising lightly or moderately is one of the most effective ways to extend our lives.  6 years to be exact.  That’s fantastic.

The bigger question is...  Does this study mean that I (or YOU) should stop strenuous exercise? 
My answer is, “yes” and “no” and “it depends”.

What this study doesn’t address is the role that inflammation plays in exercisers.  Inflammation is not always bad (ie. after you cut yourself, you want some local inflammation to heal the wound faster).  Strenuous exercise increases systemic inflammation.  Too much systemic inflammation at the wrong time is bad for the body.  When a person does what I call ‘strenuous yo-yo exercising’ (ie. exercise hard just on weekends) along with the Standard American Diet (SAD), they add fuel to the fire and create this systemic inflammation process that does nothing good for the body and in fact, seems to completely undo all the benefits that exercise has on the body.  What I suspect DOES HELP the body is consistent strenuous exercise so that the body gets acclimated to the systemic inflammation COMBINED with proper nutrition.  By proper nutrition, I mean lots of anti-inflammatory organic veggies and fruit that are rich in vitamins, minerals, bioflavonoids, and other nutrients.  Combine proper nutrition with certain added nutrients, perhaps in the form of supplementation, and you can exercise to your heart’s content.

Thank goodness!  Since I’m pretty good about eating healthy food most of the time and I take a few other inflammation busting supplements right before and after my strenuous workouts, I feel pretty confident that I’m way better off than the average strenuous exerciser who adds fuel to the fire with the Standard American Diet on top of occasional and random strenuous workouts.

In short, I’m good with my strenuous exercise regimen.  Are you?

A question: How does this apply to all those who are taking up marathons and distance triathlons?

Of course, lots more study is needed on this subject and I look forward to reading the next piece of info to come out on this subject.
