You need physical therapy from a licensed trainer, or seek out a physical therapy clinic for the proper treatment.

First place I would begin is to make sure you have the correct diagnosis. How are you aware this is being caused by a tight hamstring? After six months of doing nothing ? Rehab? What did you do for six months?
