Our Sports Massage Therapist, Cindy Li who holds clinics here at PremierPhysio on Tuesdays and Fridays says, 💬 “Whether your discomfort comes from training, work, or everyday life, I understand how frustrating it can be when your body isn’t moving as it should. My aim is to help you feel more comfortable in your body, move with confidence, and get back to doing the things you enjoy"
Here, Cindy also explains more about how hamstring strains occur and how Sports Massage can help.
“Hamstring strains are one of the most common soft-tissue injuries seen in both athletes and recreationally active individuals. They are frequently observed in people training for races such as marathons, particularly following a sudden increase in training load or intensity.
A strain happens when muscle fibres are overloaded beyond their capacity, often due to fatigue, reduced strength, limited flexibility, or poor load management. Symptoms can include localised pain, tightness, reduced range of motion, and discomfort during walking or training.
Soft-tissue therapy, such as sports massage, can help reduce muscle tension, improve local blood flow, and support tissue recovery when used alongside appropriate exercise and rest. By addressing muscle tightness and improving tissue mobility, massage may help reduce pain and restore more efficient movement patterns.
If you are experiencing ongoing hamstring discomfort or repeated strains, a targeted sports massage approach may help with your recovery and reduce risk of re-injury.”
