10 Years Of PHT With Vicki Smith Podcast

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , , , /by

Podcast Hosted By Brodie Sharp Of The Run Smarter Podcast Series – 1 hour long

 

I’m the founder of the Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy Help and Support Group and was invited to talk about  living with proximal hamstring tendinopathy for a decade by Brodie on his podcast series.   I discuss the causes of my PHT, the failed treatments I’ve had, sitting and the challenges of everyday life, mental health, surgery in Finland and supplements.

 

With the right clinician, most people recover within two years or less without the need for surgery.  Mine is an exceptional case.  I hope this podcast helps you feel less alone and isolated.
