Rapid hamstring injury recovery with revolutionary treatment

Описание: For pro and college athletes, having your body in elite performance shape is game changing.
Something as common as a hamstring pull can be season-ending.

That's what happened to Brother Martin Graduate and now Cornell senior football defensive end Noah Labbé.

“I was running full speed, and I felt a pop in my hamstring, and kind of went down. And then I went to the ground and I got back up, but immediately I knew something was wrong,” Noah Labbé remembers.

“The normal timetable for hamstring injuries is typically six to eight weeks, but sometimes these injuries can linger for months, and sometimes years, and sometimes they're career-ending, unfortunately,” said Dr. Jacques Courseault, Founder and Medical Director of The Fascia Institute and Treatment Center. He is a Tulane Sports Medicine Physician and Orthopedic Specialist.

Noah came to New Orleans from Cornell to see Tulane sports medicine physician Dr. Jacques Courseault. Through his years of research and treating injuries in athletes and pain in non-athletes of all ages, he has developed a cutting-edge,10-minute office procedure that has a very high success rate on hamstring injuries.

“In our experience, most patients get back to play within three or four days, certainly within a week. In most cases for hamstrings, we're highly successful with it being a one-time treatment,” Dr. Courseault explained.

He discovered that throughout the body, pain does not come from an injury inside the muscle but rather from the fascia. That's the thin casing of connective tissue holding every organ in place. It's sensitive and full of nerves, and damage over the years forms scar tissue that tightens and sticks to the muscle. He was the first to publish his scientific findings.

“We actually had like an aha moment, and it turns out there were patterns in hamstring injuries, but also injuries from neck pain, to back pain, to quad pain, calf pain, etc., in which the fibrotic or fascial planes were tight, adhesed, or inflamed,” he said.
