About Hamstring Tendinopathy
What you should know
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.
Our approach
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:
- 1Increase blood flow to the hamstring tendon insertion
- 2Stimulate collagen regeneration and new tissue formation
- 3Break down degenerative scar tissue at the sit bone
- 4Reduce chronic pain sensitivity
- 5Promote 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.
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
