Testimonials

“I am overweight and have severe osteoarthritis in my knees. When I saw an orthopaedic surgeon, he told me I needed to have both my knees replaced, but wouldn’t operate on me until I lost 20kg. I tried to lose weight by exercising myself, but found it almost impossible to exercise due to my knee pain. Mahn has helped me lose 15kg so far by using exercises which don’t aggravate my knees. I only have another 5kg to go!”

Amanda | Osteoarthritis of the knees

“I injured my back 10 years ago in a work related accident. Due to the core strengthening exercises I have been doing at Health Studio my back injury has stabilised and I no longer experience ongoing pain. My pain medication has decreased and the frequency of “flare ups” has significantly decreased. I would recommend these guys to anyone with a chronic back injury.”

John | Back Injury

“I had both of my knees replaced several months ago. I have been seing Mahn and he has helped me strengthen my legs and improved my balance. I now have no trouble getting up and down off the floor, which is something I haven’t been able to do for years. The day to day activities that I struggled with or couldn’t do, I can now do with ease. I now get outdoors and enjoy the good things in life.”

Tina | Knee Replacements

“Since I started at Health Studio I have found my life more enjoyable and with purpose. The staff are friendly and educational and will do whatever is required to meet your medical requirements and conditions. Health Studio gives me purpose and drive to leave the house and to improve my mind and body. The anger you build up can be taken out on the apparatuses.”
