PULLING (HAMSTRINGS) TOGETHER!!
JAMES ALLEN
Former Senior Team Physiotherapist
IRFU
As the sporting world has tried to adapt to the pandemic-induced challenges of maintain athletic performance and preventing injury in the face of restricted practice, there is constant doom-mongering predicting a tsunami of soft tissue injuries as various levels of competitive sports resume. As one of the most widely-researched and troublesome issues to deal with (even in non-plague times!!), hamstring strain remains a topic worth revisiting. James will present an overview of the literature past & present as well as introducing his methodology for monitoring, maintaining, improving and evolving hamstring (p)rehabilitation as well as discussing how the MDT has a role to play in pulling together to best service the needs of our athletes.
