After examination by a doctor, Mrs. Vicenová was diagnosed with an infection in the tendons in both arms. However, there was no treatment for a breastfeeding mother. The doctor prescribed ten magnetotherapy sessions, however the pain got worse. Mrs. Vicenová was prescribed immobilisers for her arms, which she slept in. 

“The pain became more persistent and more unpleasant. It ran from my thumb, across the inner side of my wrist to the middle of my forearm. Any movement with my thumb, in particular if it required strength, was very painful and became impossible.

Completely ordinary, everyday activities, such as unlocking a door, opening a glass, putting my hair in a band, holding a four-kilo child in one hand or putting a pram into the car caused me pain. I was completely unable to bathe my daughter, because I couldn’t hold her head above the water for a couple of minutes. The nights were the worst, my fingers swelled up and the pain woke me up.

“One night on the Internet on a discussion forum I found out that BIOPTRON light therapy could help with this type of problem. I felt slight relief after 14 days. After about one month I stopped wearing the immobilisers during the day and only kept them on at night. Nobody can imagine the feeling of happiness when I could finally hold my daughter without it hurting me and without being worried I would drop her. I would never have believed that such permanent pain could worsen the quality of life and how huge the relief is when you get rid of the pain. And also with the knowledge that I didn’t burden my body with any chemicals, or any drugs that would have side effects on me and the quality of my mother’s milk, and therefore the health of my child. I can only recommend BIOPTRON light therapy to everybody. It really helped me a lot” - Mrs. Gabriela Vicenová.
