More Research Needed On Preventing Hamstring Injuries





A brand new systematic review into the research of hamstring injuries has revealed that not enough is known about the effectiveness of current prevention methods for one of the most common sports injuries.

The review by physiotherapist and Northumbria University graduate Elliott Goldman, 29, has revealed that only six key pieces of research on prevention methods for the injury have been published internationally - despite hamstring injuries blighting the careers of some of the world's top footballers and having a direct impact on the bottom line of clubs worldwide.

Now Elliott is calling on physiotherapists and coaches, from the top flight sports clubs right down to grass roots level, to help prevent hamstring injuries by incorporating prevention techniques, which have been highlighted as being effective in current research, into their prevention programmes.
