Hamstring Strains Unley
SA Running Injury Clinic is dedicated to offering care and treatment for hamstring strain sufferers in Unley and nearby areas. A hamstring strain, a frequent leg injury, involves tearing one or more of the hamstring muscles. It commonly happens during sprinting or kicking. The severity of a hamstring strain can range from mild to very severe, potentially involving a complete tear of the muscle.
The cause of hamstring strains is often poor timing-intermuscular coordination and inadequate eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles.
Causes of Hamstring Strains
Other contributing factors to hamstring strains are:
- Excessive overstriding
- Lack of pelvic control
- Lack of proper warm-up
- Excessive fatigue in the hamstring muscles
- Slippery, wet playing surfaces put additional strain on the hamstring due to slipping
