We were delighted to hear from Dr Angus McManners – a convert to the Ski Mojo.
Angus first started skiing when he was 26 and is still skiing now at the age of 70, thanks to the Ski Mojo.
“Skiing was difficult, slow and painful”
“I worked full time as a GP until retiring at age 67. However, in my mid-forties I realised I had osteoarthritis of both knees. By the time I was 54 skiing was extremely difficult, slow and painful.”
Like many of our customers, Angus first heard about the Ski Mojo from a friend. She had multiple sclerosis and had found the Ski Mojo extremely helpful for her legs.
“Absolutely transforming”
“I purchased one and found it to be absolutely transforming. I was able to ski all day without any significant pain or fatigue.”
“I also found control on very steep and icy slopes to be superior as I feel it reduces the ‘chattering’ of the skis on ice.”
“Many thanks for a life changing and outstanding product.”
Two knee replacements
At the age of 58 Angus had a right knee replacement and then a second knee replacement at 66 years old.
“With the Ski Mojo I continue to enjoy completely pain and fatigue free skiing at my current age of 70. I am now onto my third Ski Mojo and will replace it again as the new model looks even better.”
“The Ski Mojo gives me effective pain relief from arthritic knees and complete relief from aching and fatigue in the quadriceps (thigh muscles).
Angus currently uses a 2015 model and “within a few minutes of putting it on beneath my salopettes I do not know that it is there”.
“A feeling of protection”
In Angus’ view there are two additional benefits of wearing a Ski Mojo if you have had a knee replacement in addition to the reduction in fatigue.
“The first is that the Ski Mojo provides a feeling of protection against side impact from another skier – something that anyone with a knee replacement should be particularly wary of.”
“The second is that the Ski Mojo seems likely to reduce the force transmitted through the artificial joints.
