Dr. Joe DeMarco, chiropractor and owner of OcraMed Health, discusses and demonstrates how to fix the condition known as Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy.
Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy is a common athletic injury. The athlete experiences pain in the upper hamstring tendon. Often times, this injury can linger for months. It occurs among a variety of athletes ranging from runners to weightlifters.
Most people experiencing this type of pain attempt to self treat the injury by stretching. This often aggravates the problem.
Dr. Joe discusses the 3 things that need to be addressed in order to fix this problem. First, fascial release work must be performed on the hamstring muscles. Second, he demonstrates how to strengthen the hamstring muscles. Third, Dr. Joe demonstrates how to stretch out the hip flexor muscles (which are often tight in this type of injury).

I disagree on the free part. In fact, for providing information for free he is, and the information is useful, going to actually see an increase in subscribers, awareness, and clients. The more his information becomes useful and helpful, the more people take notice and spread the word. This is actually the best thing he can do for his business. I just found him and I am already starting to see a benefit. Next, I will be seeing where he is located to se if it is feasible to go see him.

@erica6825 3 года назад

@@carlosoutten9259 Sadly my 'problem' turned out to be a lot more complicated than I initially thought, and has evolved from being a tendinopathy to a hamstring issue to potentially a back issue. I ended up seeing two physiotherapists, a biokineticist, an osteopath, and having various types of treatments, none of which have resolved my movement inhibition or pain completely. I am currently on a strict walking-only regime for two months minimum, hoping this will allow my body generally and hamstring specifically to heal themselves naturally. Not even allowed any stretching.

@jasonangeles8109 4 года назад

Thank you so much! This has been a nagging injury of mine for almost a year and there have been days I felt completely hopeless about being able to return to my old activity levels. This is the first video I found that helps tie in the anterior pelvic tilt which I recently suspected I had contributing to my low back pain. I’m excited and reinvigorated to get back on with rehab. I was curious if cycling was a big concern with aggravating this injury - it doesn’t seem to be an issue so far but if I’m tightening my hamstrings, I can imagine that may not be so great for my rehab.

@OcraMedHealth 4 года назад

Good luck Jason! In regards to activity, like cycling, let pain be your guide. If it aggravates the area, or you feel it tightens your hamstrings, I'd skip it for a while.

Great video super helpful insight. I’ve been dealing with an injury like this cannot tell if it’s a upper hamstring pull or tendinopthy. I feel pulling and aching in my upper hamstring when sprinting , squatting and sitting which leads to hip flexor pain and tightness. I layed off it for a while and it got better but when I resumed training (sprints, squats RDL etc) it got worse than ever before. Will try these exercises in hopes of healing the injury. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks

@SethJamesDeMoor 2 года назад

Great video! Thanks for sharing, truly. I'm a professional mountain runner (some road marathons too), and I've been struggling with this for about 6 weeks, and just took my first 7 days off of running starting May 19th. I'm doing all the bridge work that you mentioned in this video, but I have not heard anyone else mention the tai chi ball and breaking up some of that fascia, which I'm intrigued to try now. My question is do you think I can return to flat running if my pain does not go over 3 or 4 on the pain scale? I've never had bad pain above a 6, I just didn't know if this would ever go away if I kept running, even though my pain is really only when I sit (2 or 3 on pain scale). When I run its maybe a 2, even uphill running doesn't really bother it. Thanks for any advice you can give.

@OcraMedHealth 2 года назад

Just let pain be your guide. I would really try to avoid any activity/exercise that aggravates the injury. It will heal quicker that way. So if running hurts (even low level), you may still want to avoid it. Better to take 2-3 weeks off and let it heal than have the injury go on for 2-3 months. Good luck!

Oh my goodness! This is it! Thanks so very much. Currently, self-isolating/quarantined in Alabama. My only form of cardio is running and I'm a cardio junkie, needing this for mental as much as physical health during the pandemic. I know I need to rest, but NEED to run during this crazy time in our world. Slow jog, no sprints, just easy does it? That ok? And.. should I use ice after? I also don't have anytype of compression balls, but do have a foam roller. That ok to use instead of the ball?

@OcraMedHealth 4 года назад

Nivada, if you do some light running, it's good to ice down after. A foam roller is OK to use but it's not going to get in deep enough. The ball gets into the deeper layers of the scar tissue. Good luck and keep me posted on your progress!

I still feel soreness is my proximal hamstring area, and sometimes my entire hamstring will tighten up and feel like it’s going to pull again. It took about 4-5 months after initial injury to be able to consistently sprint, however before that I was coming back for a few days, reaggravating the injury and sitting out. Would not recommend this. You can not build strength without a strong foundation. Gentle stretching and breaking down the adhesions will take some time, maybe 3 weeks of rest and this before u continue but add eccentric hamstring movements

Hi! I pulled my high hamstring area this January while doing trx splits. I lost balance with one leg on it and I fell doing a oversplit with the other leg on the ground. This first few weeks It was so uncomfortable to walk but now I can walk normally but get sharp pains very often. I can’t stretch it still and it hurts a lot to sit for even 30 minutes. But I really love to workout and have been dedicated to going to the gym. Can I still walk for 1-2 hours daily and do ab exercises like bicycle crunches and leg raises , cardio (jump ropes) or would those be harmful? Also, can you recommend some workouts for my type of injury? Thank you! Stay safe!

@OcraMedHealth 4 года назад

First I would concentrate on getting this injury better. Follow the info from the video for the next 30 days or so. If it's really bad, I would find a good sports therapist/chiropractor in your area to help you. In regards to what exercises you can and can not do, my philosophy has always been "let pain be your guide". If it hurts, don't do it. So if your daily walks aggravate you injury, you will have to skip them for a couple of weeks while the injury heals. Good luck and keep me posted on your progress!

Had this for 3 years...used to deadlift 700 now 500 is a struggle when pain hits. Hoping to get rid of it soon. 2 weeks off deadlifting won't hurt

@OcraMedHealth 4 года назад

Good luck Cody. You might also want to check out a recent video I did explaining how sometimes the injury can be to your adductor magnus. This is common among weightlifters.

I’ve had upper hamstring pain for over a year and I’ve been stretching DAILY. Today my hamstring made a huge popping noise and now I’m in so much pain. Going to physio tomorrow. I Searched my issues and it led me to your video. THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!!! Everyone always says to “stretch it out”. UGH. 😂

I want to do the split and whenever i am getting lower i injure my hamstring . Should i do this exercices as long as my stretching routine or i won't stretch until i recover ?

@OcraMedHealth 3 года назад

As I say in the video, try not to stretch the hamstring until the injury gets better. Good luck!

@HassanSAli 3 года назад

@@OcraMedHealth Hey again Dr. Joe! Is it normal for the hip to feel sore after a few days of doing that last stretch? It's sort of like an odd yoga move, where my body isn't used to that front-leg-forward/back-leg-at-90-degrees contortion. Just didn't want to make anything worse... Thanks!

@neakaunismaki3322 3 года назад

is it okay to keep training quads and glutes while going through the recovery?

@OcraMedHealth 3 года назад

Training is fine, just avoid exercises that cause pain. Good luck!

@JillyBean1968 4 года назад

I cannot believe I ran across this vlog! I am an avid runner and this is exactly what I am living right now...it’s been going on for 6 months and is now feeling worse than ever. It is PAINFUL and incredibly uncomfortable when sitting and moving. It’s horrid! Just completed PT with no improvement. Having an MRI next week just to make sure it’s not an herniated or bulging disc. Thank you so much for this information!!!

@OcraMedHealth 4 года назад

Give the stretching and fascial release work a try! Hope it can help!
