How a Mysterious "Black Box" Alternative Therapy Cured James

James Coburn for years suffered from crippling arthritis. It kept him from acting. Then he reappeared on-screen.

This is the unknown story of how he regained his health and his career.

His action roles disappeared in the 1980's. There was a reason for this, and it wasn't age. If you look closely at his hands as he deals the cards in Maverick, you'll see why. They are gnarled. Rheumatoid arthritis. There were times when he could not hold his comb to comb his hair. Yet he was able to deal cards in 1994. There was a reason for this: a "black box." It was a miracle machine.
