Hamstring injuries are common during sporting activities with high re-injury rates, which may indicate inadequate rehabilitation or premature return to play. This course provides an in-depth examination of hamstring injuries in sports, covering mechanisms, prognostic factors, and rehabilitation strategies. Participants will gain insights from a literature review and practice guidelines, enabling them to critically evaluate and modify their current rehabilitation and return-to-play plans for more effective management of hamstring injuries.
