Sarah Mitchell, a 47-year-old yoga instructor from Portland, never imagined a simple misstep during a class would derail her life. "It was a basic sun salutation," she recalls, wincing slightly at the memory. "I twisted wrong, heard a pop in my lower back, and suddenly I couldn't stand up straight. That was two years ago."
What followed was a frustrating cycle of doctor's visits, physical therapy sessions, and painkillers that left her feeling like a shadow of herself. "PT helped a little, but the pain always came back. The meds made me groggy, and I hated relying on them just to get through a day of teaching," Sarah says. "I missed leading classes, hiking with my dog, even picking up my niece. I felt stuck."
Like millions of Americans, Sarah was living with chronic musculoskeletal pain—defined as discomfort lasting more than three months. By the time she stumbled upon B-CURE LASER, she'd tried everything: acupuncture, chiropractic adjustments, even a costly cortisone shot that provided relief for exactly 10 days. "I was desperate," she admits. "I'd scroll through forums late at night, reading about other people's struggles, wondering if I'd ever feel normal again."
