A 63-year-old woman had been experiencing mild but persistent knee pain for 16 months since May 2020. Living in a third-floor apartment, she had to climb up and down the stairs 5 to 6 times daily. She also performed household chores sitting on the floor and regularly sat cross-legged for prayers.
By June 2021, the pain worsened, forcing her to stop every four steps while climbing stairs. She also developed numbness in her feet when sitting cross-legged and mild swelling in her right knee after excessive strain. She managed her symptoms with home remedies - applying coconut oil mixed with camphor and using heated salt pads for fomentation. However, over time, her right knee became increasingly painful, causing her to limp. When home treatments provided no relief, she stopped sitting on the floor, avoided unnecessary stair climbing, and started using kneecaps for support.
On 10 Aug 2021, an orthopaedic doctor diagnosed her with osteoarthritis of the knee based on X-ray findings. He prescribed oral and topical painkillers, cautioning that surgery might be necessary if her condition deteriorated. However, she discontinued regular use of oral medication after ten days due to acidity and drowsiness, taking it only when the pain was severe.
At this juncture, her sister-in-law – a vibro practitioner appeared on the scene and on 3 Sept 2021, she gave her:
#1. CC20.3 Arthritis + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC20.5 Spine…BD in mustard oil for external application
#2. CC3.7 Circulation + CC10.1 Emergencies + CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC13.1 Kidney & Bladder tonic + CC18.5 Neuralgia + #1...TDS in water, both orally and for external application.
She discontinued the prescribed ointment and solely relied on vibrionics.
Progress & Outcome
- 14 Sept: 25% pain relief; she could now climb ten steps without stopping.
- 28 Sept: 50% improvement; she could climb stairs continuously and sit on the floor for about 30 minutes.
- 16 Oct: 75% relief from pain and numbness.
- 23 Dec: 100% improvement; she could perform all household chores while sitting on the floor and climb stairs effortlessly.
On 2 Jan 2022, #2 was reduced to OD and gradually tapered off before discontinuing it along with #1 on 21 Mar.
As of Feb 2025, she remains symptom-free with no recurrence of knee pain or numbness.
