Natasha suffered a hip injury 15 months ago, when she first came to MIHP she couldn’t cycle or run at all. She thought she had slim chances of ever being able to race a triathlon again.

She has been on a rehab journey with us the last 12 months working with consultant Oli Williamson and has done bike fits with Phil Burt Innovation

“Between the two of them, not only have they got me back cycling and running, but I’ve got a new half marathon PB, and I’m racing my first triathlon, with a view to doing Ironman France in June. I couldn’t have done it without them”

We are so proud of how far you have come Natasha 🙌🏻🚴🏼‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

“Some injuries are easier to recover from than others,” says former British Cycling and Team Sky physiotherapist Phil Burt.

“When you have catastrophic injuries, your body almost has to learn a different way to work again.”
