Dr. Stu Currie is the president and founder of MojoFeet. While studying for his doctorate in chiropractic medicine, Stu was training for a marathon and broke the sesamoid bones in his right foot. After consulting with his doctor, Stu was told surgery was his only option. Determined to avoid surgery and continue training for the marathon, Stu began researching and trying different orthotic devices and ultimately found an orthotic that corrected his foot ailment, making surgery unnecessary. Stu earned is doctor of chiropractic medicine from the National University of Health Sciences in 2002. Shortly after finishing his degree, he started his own practice before accepting the position of research director for an orthotics manufacturer. Along the way, he realized he wanted to learn how engineering concepts apply to the human body by measuring how people moved, so in 2011 he began a PhD in bioengineering at the University of Denver. He started MojoFeet in 2012, and completed his PhD in 2015.With advanced degrees in chiropractic medicine and bioengineering, Stu combines the medical approach of diagnosis and treatment with the engineer’s understanding of how forces affect the human body, to create orthotics that correct people’s foot problems, and help them get the Mojo back in their feet.
