“My name is Lori Piper. I'm 50 years old and I have multiple sclerosis. I've been very fortunate for the last 20 years that my disability has not been severe enough to restrict me from doing anything that I wanted to do. However in last few months it's become increasingly difficult for me to walk.

I had booked a 12-day cruise to the Caribbean long before my disability became an issue. As embarkation approached I became very discouraged. It seemed obvious to me that I would not be able to walk on the ship for any distance and I was very concerned that my entire trip would be ruined. Enter Motivo.

My friends and family had almost convinced me that I was going to need a scooter for the trip. So I went online looking for medical equipment rentals. Motivo came up in one of my Google searches I was curious so I clicked through and was immediately impressed with what I saw. I ordered one that day and it arrived two days later-- just in time for my cruise. Let me tell you Motivo saved the day.

I was able to be independent on this Cruise in a way that I didn't think would be possible. I was able to walk long distances. I was able to explore without any assistance from my family. I was able to eat in restaurants. I was able to hang out on the pool deck.  I was able to serve myself in the buffet. I was able to carry around my wallet and a cocktail and a deck of cards and my sunscreen and my Kindle. There really was nothing I could not do. All because of Motivo.

I fully believe that for people with moderate disability the most important thing is staying mobile. I understand that for many fols scooters are a necessity-- however, in my case, I believe that going to a scooter would have been the absolute worst thing I could do. My condition is neurological. Giving up and not moving doesn't do anything to make me any better-- it only causes my leg muscles to get weaker. Using a device such as Motivo allows me to keep the muscles in my legs strong and limber while I wait for my neurological symptoms to recede. For someone like me it really is the perfect assistive device. It enables me to navigate the world safely while preserving the strength in my legs--and most importantly preserving my independence.

Thank you, doesn't seem like enough, Motivo, but thanks. So much.”

“I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my MOTIVO TOUR!  I am living with my husband who is 74 years young, I am 73 years and I have a caretaker most of the day. It's a busy house with narrow doorways but my Motivo allows me to go through a bunch of convoluted experiences. I also live with my 2 VERY a... Read More

“I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my MOTIVO TOUR!  I am living with my husband who is 74 years young, I am 73 years and I have a caretaker most of the day. It's a busy house with narrow doorways but my Motivo allows me to go through a bunch of convoluted experiences. I also live with my 2 VERY active Border Collies that want to play ball all day. Both dogs adjusted to it and move around me or I do. Can't imagine NOT having it. There's more to my story, I can HIGHLY recommend this incredible walker.”

"The Tour has been exactly what I was looking for. Traditional walkers always left my back hurting, standing and walking with the Tour has enabled me to go places I could not or didn't think I could go.

"The Tour has been exactly what I was looking for. Traditional walkers always left my back hurting, standing and walking with the Tour has enabled me to go places I could not or didn't think I could go. The ability to store items or get food at a buffet without help, not to mention how good it looks, puts the Tour in a category by itself!"

“I am very happy with my husband's Tour. He couldn't walk upright with the traditional walker.

“I am very happy with my husband's Tour. He couldn't walk upright with the traditional walker. He is 90 and we get out to the park nearly every day and people stop us to find out more about his 'Cadillac '. Well worth every penny. It was so much better for him. Plus it is a great conversational opener. I fold and lift it into the SUV with no problem. We use the storage while walking and the table is great. We go out on the water with the tour boat and put the brakes on and don't worry. I hope you have an opportunity to get one. People ask me about it all the time.”
