Strained/Torn Hamstring...suggestions to speed healing?

I strained/tore my hamstring about a week and a half ago. Just went to the doctor on Monday and got a diagnosis (all i knew is that it hurt like hell to do anything, wasn't sure what I had done). She gave me a 6 day pack of Prednisone and a script for Flexeril (I guess to help w/sleeping bc that stuff knocks me out) I have been putting Tiger Balm on it and that seems to help a bit. Also icing it of course. Does anyone have any suggestions on anything else I can do to help it heal faster? I am in the middle of training for the Warrior dash and I don't want this to hinder any progress I have made. Thanks!
