“In the last three months of my London marathon training plan, incurred an injury which didn't go away despite complete rest. A running friend recommended I contact Michael who recognised a double hip flexor tendinopathy. He couldn't just 'sort my problem' as it's an injury which takes several months to repair. But what he did over a number of weeks was provide me with a vast range of strength exercises to rehabilitate me, whilst delivering targeted soft tissue therapy during our sessions together. Those exercises will ensure I retain and continue to gain strength in my key muscle groups for running and should result in me becoming a better runner. In combination with getting me walking and an increasing duration and intensity of running, he got me in a physical condition comfortable and strong enough to complete the 2021 London Marathon, and delivering for my charity. As well as learning a lot, Michael supported me by text between our sessions and even phoned to wish me luck the night before the marathon. Thank you Michael!”
