Hamstring Strains Walkerville
SA Running Injury Clinic proudly offer care and treatment for hamstring strains sufferers in Walkerville and surrounding communities. Hamstring strain is a common leg injury involving a tear in one or more of the hamstring muscles. It usually happens when someone is sprinting or kicking. A hamstring strain can range from mild to very severe involving a complete tear of the hamstring muscle.
Hamstring strains result from poor timing-intermuscular coordination and lack of eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles.
