Is Pain Stealing Your Independence? You Won’t Believe This 80-Year-Old’s Story

Imagine driving solo for hours, attending tradeshows weekend after weekend — sounds exhausting, right? Now, guess how old she is. Fifty? Sixty? Try eighty. That’s exactly what Fern McCall is doing. But her journey to independence is even more incredible than it sounds.

It all started with a crash

Years ago, Fern’s life took an unexpected turn after a serious car accident left her with a trapped neck and limited mobility. The pain was relentless. She tried everything — but nothing worked. Eventually, doctors gave her a choice: fuse her neck or risk being in a wheelchair within six months.

For Fern, that wasn’t a future she was willing to accept.

A light in the dark

Determined to stay mobile and keep doing what she loved most — driving — Fern kept looking. That search led her to Bioptron.

She got her hands on one of the very first Bioptron light therapy units brought into New Zealand from Switzerland. After using it consistently for just three months, she experienced something remarkable.

Her mobility returned. Her pain eased. She could move freely again without fear.

Living proof and sharing it with others

Today, Fern is 80 years old and more independent than ever. She drives herself across the country, from Auckland to Dunedin, attending tradeshows and sharing her experience with others.

She has become a passionate advocate for Bioptron because she has lived the results. She believes everyone should have access to something that supports the body’s ability to heal naturally.

Inspired by Fern’s journey?

Fern’s story is a reminder that it’s never too late to try something new. If you feel like pain or limitation is holding you back, know that there may still be options.
Bioptron helped Fern get her life back. Maybe it can help you too.
