How To Treat Upper Hamstring Pain

If you’re experiencing deep, localized pain around your lower buttocks when doing activities such as running, squats, and even yoga, you may be have what’s called proximal hamstring tendinopathy.

Your upper hamstring may feel tight, tender, and full of knots.

You may have been told otherwise, but stretching will not fix high hamstring tendinopathy.

You need to do myofascial release with a massage ball to dig into these painful knots and truly alleviate your hamstring pain.

Using—preferably a spiky—massage ball, find the tender spot on your upper hamstring and place the ball there, sitting down and placing as much pressure on the massage ball as you can handle.

Sit on the ball for about 60 seconds, using your arms to control the amount of pressure.

Remember, stay young and train hard!
