Pearl City, HI

Pearl City, Oahu home for sale, Pacific Palisades 30 minutes to downtown Honolulu.

I would like to invite you to my new video series about my listings in different Oahu neighborhoods. 

My goal will be to present the unique atmosphere of some of the most popular Oahu neighborhoods.

  This movie will be about my Open House in one of the oldest areas of Oahu: Pearl City, and particularly, Pacific Palisades.

  Most homes in the area were built in the mid 60‘s.  It is a very well established neighborhood with many people living in the areas for many decades.   

  Many homes in Pacific Palisades are older and need some updating. With my listing it is a great opportunity to find a home that been recently remodeled, a home away from busy streets, with plenty of room in the back yard, and nicely landscaped in front of the house. Aluka Loop is also located close to the bus stop in the lower part of Pacific Palisades.

The Palisades Community Association dues are only $3 per month, with a pool, playground and rental facility for special occasions.

  Pearl City is conveniently located in the middle of the island, within 10 miles of Fort Shafter or Peal Harbor and about 30 minutes to downtown Honolulu. 

  Pacific Palisades is close to the H-1 and H-2 freeways and near to major local shopping centers.

What better way to write about a Hawaii Local Business except from first hand from experience? Leeward Acupuncture Center, Inc. and my acupuncturist/massage therapist, Diego Leong Roig is everyone's alternative medicine and health care provider!

I made a decision a year ago that would turn out to be the best ‘medical' decision of my life.

The turning point was realizing that there IS an alternative to drugs and operations for certain medical problems. There IS an alternative other than the regular series of standard medical practice for things that would only cause future problems..... And still not ‘cure' the original symptom.

Granted, there are some things that can't be ‘cured' although there IS alternative medicine and health care to relieve most of those aches and pains. I originally went to Diego Leong Roig because of my carpal tunnel and my foot had some kind of nerve damage that was causing severe pain and two numb toes. The doctors before said to wear braces at night and support during the day. Diego Leong Roig said no....that I was babying it and making it worse.

When your career relies on the computer, these two ailments cause interference with work.

After a few months of massage therapy (deep tissue massage) and acupuncture my carpal tunnel was so manageable that I could type comfortably again for hours on end. I eventually had to get cortisone shots in my foot (nerve damage) but the rest of my aches and pains are manageable with my acupuncture/massage therapy appointments every 3 weeks to get the ‘kinks' out.

It also takes a good ‘bedside manner' such as the kind Diego Leong Roig gives both me...and my husband (yes, he goes too!) and his demeanor, professional work ethics and his knowledge and experience are what keeps us going back to him. It also took the understanding that this process will not work ‘overnight' and is not a one shot deal. It's ongoing therapy without a bunch of drugs and healing naturally.

After doing the same thing over and over and getting no relief or results in the past.....we finally understood that this alternative was definitely in order.

Needless to say, it also takes a good insurance provider that agrees with alternative medicine and I am grateful that Kaiser Permanente accepts and works with acupuncture, massage therapy and chiropractor providers. For more information about Kaiser Permanente and Acupuncture click here.

Have you ever wondered about other 'medical' alternatives than just a regular doctor for something like a thrown out back? And if that didn't work have you considered going to a chiropractor? If that doesn't work, then what?

My husband has something pinched in his back /leg and he went to the doctor. He basically got the "I'll give you a prescription" answer and he told them to 'take a hike' (he used other words). Then he went to a Chiropractorand after four weeks of pain, continuing pain and just a bunch of cracks and more pain I told him that we both should look in to acupuncture.

Why? Well, with all my ailments (too many to list here) I can't have people stretching and cracking and pulling and tugging and Gary certainly needs relief at this point.

I went to my Acupuncture appointment this morning. My first experience.

Ahhh.....Massage....oh, yeah (I can sure get to like this). More pressure rubbing (I like this). Then, warmth (lights?) and little taps on needlesgoing in different spots throughout my back, legs and down to my ankle (for my pinched something that is causing my toes to go numb).

Then rubbing my left arm down to my wrist(for carpal tunnel and thumb tendinitis) with massage, pressure and needles.

I'll tell you this: When all was finished (one hour) I was lightheaded and had to sit up for a good 15 minutes before leaving. The pain from my back lessened. My left foot had feeling and barely any pain with feeling starting to come back into my three toes. My wrist and thumb need more work but he said I was babying it (doctors orders) and we needed to get strength back into it.

So...what do cheeseballs have to do with anything? NOTHING...not a darn thing. But they sure tasted good!
