Hamstring Strains Goodwood
At SA Running Injury Clinic, we proudly provide care and treatment for those suffering from hamstring strains in Goodwood and surrounding communities. Hamstring strain is a common leg injury that involves tearing one or more hamstring muscles. This injury usually occurs during sprinting or kicking activities. The severity of a hamstring strain can range from mild to very severe, with the potential for a complete muscle tear.
Poor timing-intermuscular coordination and insufficient eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles are the primary causes of hamstring strains.

Additional factors causing hamstring strains include:
- Overstriding during gait
- Lack of pelvic control
- Improper warm-up
- Over-fatigued hamstring muscles
- Slippery, wet playing surfaces put additional strain on the hamstring due to slipping
