Muscle Strains

Treatment for Muscle Strains

Have you ‘Pulled’ or ‘Strained’ a Muscle recently?
Let us help get it sorted here at our Clinic.

A pulled muscle or tendon refers to localised damage to a soft tissue structure when sudden tension has been applied to it. This can cause either an overstretch or a tear. A ‘pull’ to a muscle/tendon is called a Strain (but a pulled ligament is called a Sprain!)

Muscle strains are an incredibly common injury and can easily be done. They are often caused by lack of flexibility from: not warming up enough, or from doing too much physical activity e.g. lifting or running.

Does This Sound Like You?

  • You’ve hurt yourself and are ignoring the pain whilst trying to continue.
  • Bruising or swelling has appeared in the area of injury?
  • Moving the injured area hurts.
  • Have you taken anti-inflammatories and its not helping?
  • You’ve tried rest, but as soon as you go back to activity it comes back again.
  • You’ve tried self-diagnosing the problem on Google, which just worries you more.

CAN YOU RELATE?

The good news is that Muscle and Tendon Strains can easily be treated with a course of Structural Integration Treatment. So, the quicker you seek professional help, the faster you will get better – allowing you to get back doing what you love again.
