Groin Pull
Groin pain; Groin strain; Groin pull injury; or Adductor strain. Call it what you want, the fact is, it's a very common muscle strain injury that currently plagues sports like soccer, basketball, football, hockey, track & field and racquet sports.
The basis of prevention comes down to two simple factors. A thorough warm-up and physical conditioning, ie: flexibility & strength.
The role of massage in groin pull follows the acute stage of the injury. As the athlete is healing, massage should be incorporated to prevent or reduce scarring and facilitate flexibility.
