In February 2019 I got a severe strain (3rd degree) on my left calf muscle whilst playing 5-a-side football. I asked Aidan if he had any tips for me. He asked for details and then he sent me a super long, fully detailed email. Naturally, this led to a slew of questions, which he was more than happy to answer. He then followed up with me to make sure I was doing well. Aidan has valuable insights and is genuinely concerned for your well-being. It's never been easier than this to recommend someone...!
