Hamstring Strains Glenside
SA Running Injury Clinic is proud to offer care and treatment for hamstring strain sufferers in Glenside and neighbouring areas. A hamstring strain is a prevalent leg injury involving a tear in one or more of the hamstring muscles. It typically occurs during activities like sprinting or kicking. Hamstring strains can vary from mild to very severe, including a complete muscle tear.
Hamstring strains result from poor timing-intermuscular coordination and lack of eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles.
