Does This Sound Familiar?
Deep aching pain in the back of the upper thigh
Pain at or near the sit bone (ischial tuberosity)
Pain with running, sprinting, or uphill walking
Pain sitting for long periods on hard surfaces
Tightness that doesn't improve with stretching
Hamstring pain lasting longer than 6 weeks
If your hamstring pain has persisted despite rest, stretching, or traditional therapy, you may be dealing with chronic hamstring tendinopathy — a degenerative condition at the point where the hamstring attaches to the sit bone. This type of injury is notoriously slow to heal because the tendon has poor blood supply and is under constant load. Focused shockwave therapy directly targets the tendon to trigger the repair process your body can't initiate on its own.
How We Treat Chronic Hamstring Tendinopathy
At Chiropractic Remedy, we focus on stimulating healing in damaged tendon tissue — not simply reducing inflammation.
For chronic hamstring tendinopathy, we use focused shockwave therapy to:
Increase blood flow to the hamstring tendon insertion
Stimulate collagen regeneration and new tissue formation
Break down degenerative scar tissue at the sit bone
Reduce chronic pain sensitivity
Promote long-term functional recovery for running and training
Shockwave therapy is non-surgical, drug-free, and requires no downtime. Many patients begin noticing improvement within a few treatments.

Is Shockwave Therapy Right For You?
Shockwave therapy may be appropriate if:
Your hamstring pain has lasted longer than 6–8 weeks
Rest and rehabilitation alone haven't resolved symptoms
You want to avoid cortisone injections or surgery
You want to return to running, training, or sport without ongoing pain
You're looking for a non-invasive, evidence-based treatment option
During your evaluation, we will determine whether shockwave therapy is appropriate for your specific condition.
