Sports therapy goes hi-tech

Friday 19 March 2010

I had my first experience of ultrasound yesterday. No, I'm not pregnant! My sports therapist suggested ultrasound therapy to break down some of the many adhesions (bits of scar tissue) at the top of my hamstring. Apparently, they can cause the muscle to remain contracted, which might explain why it feels tight still. Happily ultrasound is completely pain-free, unlike the 30min sports massage that came before it!

I'm quite happy at the moment as I managed a 25 min run/walk session this week so feel like I'm making some progress at last :-)
