Tales of chronic pain, debilitating symptoms and failed treatment techniques often manifest anxiety and thoughts of the worst outcome.However, this is only a small fraction of runners and a skewed bias around the injured population. So, this segment aims to bring hope and optimism, while sharing treatment success. On today's episode, Brodie talks with Todd Charnetski, a passionate runner who developed bilateral proximal hamstring tendinopathy back in 2007 after pushing hard during his half marathon preparation. Todd had tried years of different treatments. Icing, massage, stretching, compression, strengthening, medication, PRP, cortisone, tenex and several other remedies. It wasn't until 2018 when a shift in his management started showing drastic improvement. Todd is currently 100% better on one side and 95% better on the other and is excited to share his story.🎉🎉 Sign up for the FREE PHT 5-Day Course HERE 🎉🎉If you would like to learn more about having Brodie on your rehab team go to www.runsmarter.online Or book a free 20-min physio chat here
