How to Stretch Your Hamstrings
Steps:

1. Lie down on your back. Hold an exercise strap in your hands.

2. Bend your right leg at the knee and put the strap under your right foot.

3. Straighten your right knee. Use the strap to control how far you bend your leg at the hip, bringing your foot toward the ceiling.

4. Hold a comfortable, static stretch (no bouncing) for 60 seconds. Keep your abdominals lightly contracted, with your back flat. Avoid arching your back.

5. Bend your knee and place the strap under your left foot. Repeat the stretch on the other leg.

hey you should look up for more stretching techniques and I'm sure your doctor will give you better advice then i can :).. good luck with your stretching and everything else..
