Hamstring Strain

We are committed to guiding you through each step of your hamstring recovery. We believe in a collaborative approach, where your active involvement is key to achieving lasting results.

What is Hamstring Strain?

Hamstring Strain, often resulting from sudden movements or overexertion, can be a common setback for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. These injuries affect the muscles located at the back of the thigh and can range from mild strains to more severe tears.

Our Approach

Our experienced physiotherapists begin with a thorough assessment to understand the extent of your hamstring injury. This involves evaluating the severity of the tear, identifying contributing factors, and assessing your overall musculoskeletal health.

Immediate Relief with R.I.C.E

For immediate relief, we employ the R.I.C.E protocol – Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. This helps manage pain, reduce swelling, and create an optimal environment for healing.

Customized Exercise Plans

Our physiotherapists design personalized exercise plans. These include a gentle range of motion exercises initially, gradually progressing to targeted strengthening exercises as your hamstring heals.

Manual Therapy Techniques

Hands-on techniques such as soft tissue mobilization and massage are employed to enhance circulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing.

Proprioception and Balance Training

Regaining balance and proprioception (body awareness) is crucial. Our physiotherapists incorporate specialized exercises to improve these aspects, reducing the risk of re-injury.

Gradual Return to Activity

As you progress, we guide you through a phased return to activities and sports, ensuring your hamstring is back to form.
