Hamstring Treatments and Information

It Is Now Possible To:

There are options for a superior level of treatment for hamstring injuries as well as hip, thigh and leg pain. Would you like to get back to your regular activities by healing incredibly fast and significantly reducing your hamstring pain?

For years, professional athletes have had access to treatment methods that allow them to heal much more quickly and more completely than you or I. That is why injured athletes are often back in the game in a matter of weeks, while you could suffer for months or even years. Times have changed - Professional Grade therapeutic devices are now available for anyone that needs them!

For sufferers of Hamstring Injuries, it is not necessary to face months of reduced mobility (sometimes years in cases of reinjury). Athletes with the same injuries as the general public heal their injury quickly while the typical person's injury often becomes chronic, lingering on for so long that they cannot remember what life was like before their injury. With proper treatment, anyone can heal an injured hamstring fast and significantly reduce the pain associated with the injury.

Hamstring injuries are very common injuries and healing them can take a long time. Whether it's a full tear or partial strain, once you injure your hamstring, it's almost impossible to fully heal because every time you move you can easily re-injure the area. It's just not possible to stop everything and rest your hamstring properly. Everyone has demands that make them keep going. In the process of every day life we prevent the strained/stretched hamstring from healing properly. People don't realize that even after the pain goes away, your hamstring isn't fully healed. With constant use you run the risk of re-injury, prolonging healing time and ultimately you risk permanent damage.

It is almost impossible to keep from re-straining your injured hamstring because even when the pain is gone you still are not fully healed. But, when the pain disappears, that's when we start using our leg normally again even though it isn't fully healed. It's just not possible to stop everything and rest the injury properly. Everyone has demands that make them keep going and when we are active we prevent the hamstring muscles from healing completely. We continually reinjure the area through our daily activities which can often lead to back pain or chronic hamstring pain and immobility later in life.

Constant re-injury (you know when it's happening, you can feel the pain) needs to be avoided at all costs. Obviously, it delays the healing process, but what's worse is that every re-injury and additional healing cycle increases the amount of scar tissue that builds up in the area of your original injury (typically, the biceps femoris muscle). Scar tissue is hard, inflexible, and tough to get rid of. The more scar tissue that develops, the more you lose the range of motion in your leg. The more scar tissue that develops, the more likely you will wind up with chronic leg or lower back pain (long term injury). Scar tissue means that your hamstring will not perform as well as it once did and it makes it much more prone to injury again later on.

If you have inflammation in your hamstring or in the muscles surrounding the upper leg, it's very important to heal it quickly and completely. You must avoid the build up of scar tissue. If you don't, your strained/pulled leg muscles may plague you forever. This is where pro athletes have the advantage. They use therapeutic tools to speed their healing so that they are 100% healed before they resume their sport. Even once they return to the sport, they use these tools constantly to heal any recurring tendon or muscle damage before it can build into something big. For professional athletes, having the right tools means all the difference. For the rest of us having the right tools should be just as important.

If you have a hamstring injury, it's very important to heal it quickly and completely. Do not allow this injury to plague you forever!

These three tools are what you need for rapid healing. These are the tools that top professional athletes use to heal their injuries every single day. And just like the professional athletes, you can treat yourself at home. In fact, if you want to heal properly you have to treat yourself because you need to treat your injury every single day.

Rapid Healing...

Time is Money. A common phrase that is especially true when you are suffering from a debilitating injury! Rapid recovery will not happen by itself; if you need rapid recovery and complete healing then you definitely need BFST^®.

Anyone in the healthcare business knows that your blood supplies the oxygen and much needed nutrients required to heal an injured muscle, hamstring or tendon - the problem is that an injured leg means your blood flow is usually restricted in the injured area through inactivity and inflammation (swelling). The trick is to first, reduce the swelling to "open up" the area for greater blood flow and second, increase the blood flow in the injured area by using the Leg Inferno Wrap^® BFST^® therapy device. By using the Inferno Wrap^®, blood flow is stimulated in your injured area while you are at rest. The increased blood flow when you are at rest means you are not risking reinjury. Without the risk of reinjury, most patients can recover from their injuries at an advanced rapid rate.

Reduction of Swelling (and Pain from Swelling)...

Would you know you injured yourself if there was no pain? Probably not! Pain and swelling perform a useful role in letting you know that you did, in fact, injure yourself. Pain and swelling are what get you to seek out medical attention in the hopes of finding a way to reduce the pain and heal your injury.

Inflammation around an injured hamstring can create extreme pain and reduce your ability to move. When using a Cold Compression Leg Freezie Wrap^®, you can control inflammation and support the hamstring which speeds up healing and clears away the pain. You don't need medication, drugging your whole body, to mask the pain. You need to reduce the inflammation and avoid reinjury to see a reduction in pain.

We all know that if the injury was healed, the pain would go away but what about the opposite situation? If the pain was gone, does that mean the injury is better? Unfortunately, that is not always true. The Cold Compression Leg Freezie Wrap^® is very effective at reducing swelling and the pain associated with swelling. Just remember that an injury is not healed just because the swelling is gone - this is why you need to keep treating the injury with BFST^® and High Quality Therapeutic Ultrasound. When used in combination, these three modalities provide all the necessary treatments to reduce the pain of your injured hamstring and promote fast and complete healing of the injury.

The Leg Inferno Wrap^® and Leg Freezie Wrap^® are intended for superior treatment of:

If you have a bad hamstring injury or chronic condition, you can heal quickly if you treat your injury correctly. That means using the right therapies every single day. Here's how they work:

During normal daily activities, movement promotes blood flow through our body. Our body responds to the activity by sending oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the muscles, tendons, ligaments and surrounding tissue. When your hamstring is injured and at rest, the blood flow to that area is greatly reduced. But, when your body is injured, it really needs the blood flow to promote the healing process.

Since you can't work your hamstring without danger of further injury, you need to stimulate the blood flow another way. Our innovative Inferno Wraps^® give you the best BFST^® (Blood Flow Stimulation Therapy^™) available. The Inferno Wrap^® patented Energy Web^® will stimulate blood flow by penetrating through the outer layers of your skin. The electromagnetic energy waves reach deep into your muscles, ligaments, tendons and cartilage, reducing your pain as they heal the inner tissue.

The Inferno Wrap^® for Hamstring Injury Treatment is revolutionary. Its soft flexible design molds itself to the contours of your body, providing you with a perfectly fitted, easy-to-use Blood Flow Stimulation Therapy^™ tool.

You have to try one to appreciate the ease and comfort. The Inferno Wrap^® is made of durable, medical-grade neoprene. It stays in place, is flexible and contours to the shape of your leg. The strategically placed pocket holds the Energy Web^® component around the leg while focusing the soothing and healing energy waves where you need them most...directly into the hamstring area!

As an FDA Registered Medical Device, the Leg Inferno Wrap^® gives you unparalleled blood flow stimulation energy. It is suitable for use in hospital and therapeutic clinics though it is completely safe for patients to use at home as well, reducing in-clinic medical costs. You simply won't find a comparable product on the market. Other therapy products can not come close to offering the soft, contoured fit and even distribution of energy over an injured area that an Inferno Wrap^® can provide.

You will feel the soothing, deep penetrating warmth as it works to stimulate your blood flow, we guarantee it. The unit is light weight and portable with a plug in adapter that you can use at home, at work, or anywhere. Now you can reduce your pain and heal your leg injury anywhere with the comfortable, light weight Inferno Wrap^®.

Inferno Wraps^® are perfectly safe, natural, and very effective. In fact, when there are concerns over safety that may restrict the use of other treatment options, an Inferno Wrap^® is often still a viable solution.

Like everything we sell, our Inferno Wraps^® are the best quality products you will find anywhere, and like all our products, we guarantee our Inferno Wraps^® with our 60 day money back guarantee. If for any reason you're not happy with any product you purchase in our shop, you can send it back for a full refund.

Remember, a common mistake is that once we start feeling a little better, we often forget that our muscles, ligaments and tendons may still be injured or weak. (As we compensate for our injured hamstring we often strain and damage other neighbouring tissue.) This time in particular is when almost everyone stops going to therapy and stops nurturing their still injured body. With Inferno Wraps^® and MendMeShop^® Ultrasound Therapy Unit, even after the pain is gone, you can continue to treat your damaged hamstring and complete the healing process.

Healing completely is critical to avoid re-injury. Who wants to have chronic pain? No one wants to go through surgery. So treat your hamstring injury completely and avoid these terrible outcomes. Thousands of Pro athletes can't be wrong!

Doctors, therapists, and other health care professionals have been recommending RICE (R - Rest, I - Ice, C - Compression, E - Elevation) to treat soft tissue injuries for years. However, recently, it has become clear that ice is too cold and can cause ice burns (cryoburn), damaging your skin. Doctor's know that you need COLD to reduce your pain and swelling, there just hasn't be another way to deliver cold to a soft tissue injury without the risk of ice burns.

So if RICE isn't right, what is? We call it RCCE (R - Rest, C - Cold, C - Compression, E - Elevation). Simply reducing the temperature of your soft tissue by a few degrees is enough to get the COLD therapy you need, without the risk of cryoburn from ice or gel packs chilled in the freezer to frozen temperatures. Our Freezie Wraps^® are chilled in the fridge and they give you all of the same benefits of RICE therapy – reduced pain and swelling - with NO RISK. This eliminates the potential for skin damage during treatment associated with all freezer wraps.

The Leg Freezie Wrap^® is the best combination compression and cold pack for injuries like a strained or pulled hamstring, partial hamstring tears, a groin pull or even post-surgery recovery (just be sure to talk with your physician about when to start using it after surgery). They offer compression, support and cold therapy all at the same time.

There are no other cold gel packs out there that can be chilled in the fridge AND still remain cold for the duration of your treatment. It's the ColdCure Technology^® of our gel formulation that makes the Freezie Wrap^® gel pack unique. In addition, every Freezie Wrap^® is made of high quality, medical grade neoprene that gives you superior, adjustable compression.

Our Freezie Wraps^® fit perfectly and are extremely durable. They support the muscles and tendons of the leg while gently applying pressure to your injury at the same time. The unique design with a properly shaped non-migrating gel pack keep the cold over the entire injured area. Simply pop them into the fridge when not in use and you can re-use them time and again. There's nothing magic about RCCE; RRCE works and is the safe alternative to RICE for treating your hamstring injury.

Our cold compression wraps are made of the highest quality materials available. They fit perfectly, stay in place, are extremely durable, and are filled with a special non-migrating gel pack.

What is non-migrating gel? All other cold packs simply use a plastic bag partially filled with soft cold gel which moves under pressure. What is sure to happen with those cheap designs is that the gel pools in the low spots or in pockets where there is no pressure. Fill a plastic bag with water and put it on your arm and watch what happens - all the water sits in two pools on either side of your arm. You need to apply the pressure to the injured area and you need the cold gel to stay in place in spite of the pressure. You need the compression and you need to keep the gel in place. Our non-migrating cold packs ensure that is what happens. We have the only products on the market that can make this claim.

Cold compression wraps work because they interrupt and slow nerve and cell function in the damaged area. Once blood vessels are damaged they can no longer carry oxygenated blood to the damaged tissue and therefore cells begin to break-down. The deep cold provided by cold compression wraps slow cell function thereby reducing cellular break-down. Furthermore, because the cold wraps serve to numb the nerves, the wraps also reduce pain!

In the early days or weeks of your injury the inflammation is partly your body's reaction to try to immobilize the injured area. Unfortunately this inflammation also strains the surrounding tissue and causes pain. Cold compression wraps provide support and reduce inflammation giving your body the support it needs without the usual pain. We guarantee you, you will be surprised how good it feels!

Like all of our products, our Freezie Wraps^® are the best quality products you will find anywhere. We have them for every part of the body, not just your hamstring. And like all our products, we guarantee our wraps with our 60 day money back guarantee. If for any reason you're not happy with any product you purchase in our shop, you can send it back for a full refund.

Doctors routinely prescribe ultrasonic massage treatments as a primary treatment for all forms of soft tissue inflammation. It is also a supplementary treatment for leg strains, pulled hamstrings and tendon/ligament strain from a previous injury.

Typically these treatments at a clinic happen twice per week to save you the inconvenience of frequent trips to the clinic. Really though, you would get maximum benefit from getting ultrasound treatments 3 times each day and every day. Treatments at a clinic every day are too inconvenient. Besides, no government or private medical plan could afford the costs of sending you for treatments 3 times per day every day. So, even though your injured body can be treated, you won't get even a fraction of the therapy you really need. With our ultrasound kit you can get all the ultrasound therapy you need in your own home saving you loads of both time and money.

As we discussed above, many physical injuries take longer to heal because we can't rest long enough to let ourselves heal.

We have to go to work, take care of family, or we just plain want to get out and do things. Staying in bed for 2 weeks just isn't an option.

Besides prolonging your suffering, constant re-injury leads to the build up of scar tissue on the injured hamstring muscles and non-uniform healing.

Then, even when you're healed, your leg doesn't work as well as it used to. You end up with reduced flexibility, less strength, limited range of motion, and potentially life-long mobility problems.

Ultrasound treatments can reduce the amount of scarring in your leg. In fact, ultrasound treatments are regularly used by doctors and physical therapists to break down existing scar tissue. With a home ultrasound kit from MendMeShop^®, you heal more quickly and more completely. With our ultrasound kit your hamstring heals with less scarring and that is a critical goal.

All ultrasound therapy kits from MendMeShop^® come with a specially formulated gel which contains naturally based pain relieving and anti-inflammatory ingredients. A MendMeShop^® Ultrasound Therapy Unit actually drives the pain relieving ingredients deep into your tissue (a process known medically as phonophoresis) giving you the pain relief where you need it. It's impossible to simply rub a lotion by hand deep enough to penetrate into your body.

MendMeShop^® Ultrasound Therapy Unit can drive the medication in our gel that deep. Oral medication affects your entire body and doses are often restricted to not harm your sensitive organs even though the affected area could benefit from additional medication. Medicated ultrasound gel gives you maximum relief and maximum therapy, where you need it.

This is the only ultrasound system that comes with this special MendMeShop^® Lavender Infusion Ultrasound Gel. Ultrasound without medicated gel is like a cup of tea without a tea bag - it's nothing but hot water. Now, with our home ultrasound kits, the tremendous benefits of therapeutic ultrasound and phonophoresis are available to you.

Not long ago, I started noticing that we were getting a lot of orders from the Tenessee area. After looking into it further, I found out that there is a nurse in a large Veterans hospital that is printing up and handing out our phone number to outpatients she comes across that would benefit from using our products. Thanks to her, there are probably over 500 people in the Tennessee area that found an affordable solution to complete their recovery (at home!) once they left the hospital.

Professional athletes are prone to injury because of the intensity of their sports. When they are injured, they don't go for therapy twice per week, they get therapy for their injuries 3 times per day. You deserve that too. In fact, many professional athletes use BFST^® therapy along with ultrasound before competitions and training as a means of avoiding injury and improving performance. Afterwards, cold compression wraps help relieve overworked and fatigued muscles, shortening recovery time and further preventing injury. In many cases, using the proper therapy means the difference between going through surgery or not. If you want to get professional athletic care then you have to get the right equipment.

Our products really are that good. People are using them for Sciatica, Arthritis, Headaches, Bursitis and other debilitating diseases as well. And they are getting amazing results. It's incredible how many times we've heard, ¨I used my wrap or therapy kit for the first time, and I could tell the difference right away.¨

All the treatment methods presented here have been scientifically and medically tested to relieve pain and promote healing. Our products are Chiropractor and Doctor recommended for patients who require treatment for all kinds of tendon, ligament, and nerve injuries including Carpal Tunnel, Muscle Injuries, Tendon Injuries, Ligament Injuries and Plantar Fasciitis Injuries.

Not sure what to buy? For almost any hamstring injury, the most fundamental tool (and luckily the least expensive) is the Leg Freezie Wrap^® cold compression wrap. This product will go miles towards giving your leg the compressive treatment for healing and the incredible power of cold pain relief. Cold compression wraps reduce inflammation and pain which is your number 1 priority and, they just feel sooo good! If you have never iced a painful muscle or tendon injury before I promise you that you will be astounded at the quick results. Icing kills inflammation fast, and a lot of pain usually disappears once the inflammation is gone - just remember to keep icing or the swelling will start to return. The only way to keep the swelling from coming back is to heal the underlying injury, and to do that you want to use MendMeShop^® Ultrasound Therapy Unit and BFST^®.

Second on your hamstring treatment list needs to be an Inferno Wrap^®. BFST^® is the ultimate natural therapy for severe soft tissue injury. Whatever you choose, the products at our MendMeShop^® store are all effective tendonitis and muscle treatment devices that are the best of the best and come with 60 day money back guarantees.

For persistent recurring hamstring problems, or if you simply want to take your hamstring therapy to the highest level, use our therapeutic ultrasound kit with naturally medicated gel. It is effective, easy to use and like the cold compression wraps the pain relieving element is outstanding. Keep in mind:
