AB  - Background: This study presents several anecdotal case reports of chronic pain patients cured with two different plant medicines from the Chumash Indian tradition.
Methods: Patients suffering from fibromyalgia, chronic back pain, chronic bursitis, chronic tendinitis and other conditions were treated.  California sagebrush (Artemisia californica) was grown by the author and made into a liniment.  The liniment was applied to painful sites on the skin.  Black sage (Salvia mellifera) was made into a sun tea.  Chronic pain patients soaked their feet in the preparation.
Results: The liniment provided relief from even severe pain within a minute or so.  After daily use for 1 – 7 days, chronic pain was cured in several patients.  The sun tea provided pain relief throughout the body within 20 minutes.  After 1 – 7 days of once daily use, several chronic pain patients were cured.  
Conclusions: Both A. californica liniment and S. mellifera sun tea provide pain medicines that can cure chronic pain.
