Proximal Hamstring Injuries

Strain or tendinopathy at the upper attachment of the hamstring muscles to the ischial tuberosity (sit bone) — common in sprinters and footballers.

Proximal Hamstring Injuries

Symptoms

  • Deep pain in the buttock or upper back of the thigh
  • Pain when sitting on hard surfaces
  • Pain on stretching the hamstring or accelerating
  • Stiffness after activity

How reGener8 treats it

Focused ShockWave™

Focused ShockWave™

Focused waves reach the deep proximal hamstring tendon at the ischial tuberosity (up to 8 cm) — an area difficult to treat with manual therapy or radial waves.

Suggested starting protocol
Hip / proximal hamstring
13 Hz · 6 Bar · 2,000–2,500 shocks
4–6 sessions, every 4–6 days

Starting point — therapist adjusts to the patient.

Expected results

  • Reduced deep pain and improved sitting comfort
  • Restored sprinting capacity
  • Stimulates tendon remodelling at the bony attachment
