Since 2018, I’ve dealt with an 85% rotator cuff tear, degenerative arthritis in my shoulder joint, arthritis in C6–C7, bulging discs, and most recently fractures in my pelvis, SI , and patella.

Years of barrel racing have taken a toll, and I’ve seen orthopedic surgeons and multiple specialists. Because of my age, shoulder replacement wasn’t an option, so I relied on stem cell injections for the last 3.5 years, which helped tremendously.

Then in February, I woke up with a severe pinched nerve in my neck, pain just as intense as my frozen shoulder episode. I couldn’t ride for a week, couldn’t sleep, and had constant shooting pain down to my elbow. My fingers even started to go numb. My chiropractor had mentioned LifeWave patches before, and at that point I was willing to try anything. He connected me with Nikki Tate so I could order some.

To my surprise, the morning after I applied my first patch, the pain was 85% gone. By the next day, it was completely gone.

I’ve been using the X39 and Aeon patches ever since. Aeon helps with inflammation, so I wear it at night, then switch to X39 in the morning. After eight months on the patches, my overall health and recovery have improved noticeably. I used to be extremely sore after just one run and now my recovery is so much better, my riding feels stronger, and my confidence has increased.

I also use LifeWave patches on Hello Stella, and I truly believe they’ve contributed to her health, longevity, and overall comfort especially with the wear and tear that comes from competing at a high level.

I’m sharing this because I genuinely feel others can benefit from supporting their health in this way. The inner vibrance and energy I’ve regained is a testament to how this phototherapy helps your body function the way God designed it to.
