Mark Sherry - hamstring
This document discusses return to sport criteria and rehabilitation protocols for acute hamstring strains, noting that criteria should include measures of strength, range of motion, neuromuscular control and readiness, and that eccentric strengthening can help prevent reinjury for chronic or recurrent strains. Guidelines are proposed focusing on a progressive agility program without stretching to regain strength and function before clearing for full sport activity.

- 29. So what doI do now ……. † Acute hamstring strains „ PATS program „ Don’t stretch them, don’t allow themselves or anyone else to stretch them „ Manual therapy † normalize spinal mechanics † normalize talar glide † indirect STM „ Vit. C and E, avoid NSAIDS „ Initial compression and ice for pain and swelling
- 30. So what doI do now ……. † Chronic hamstring strains „ PATS program „ Eccentric strengthening † include hip joint position change
- 31. So what doI do now ……. „ Manual therapy † normalize spinal and ankle mechanics † direct STM † neural mobility
- 32. The Email AfterEffect “One of our young international winger has been troubled all season by different hamstring injuries in both legs. Although he was worked hard to recover with adequate time and intense stretching programmes he has suffered 4 strains in eight months, thus keeping him most of the season on the sidelines. I am very frustrated with his evolution and have a personal challenge to recover him properly in order to join our national side that will play the World Cup in Hong Kong in March.”
