Physical therapy session will definitely help, if you say its recurring calf strain, there is suspected muscular knot formation in the muscle of calf. which would eventually reducing the length of muscle to function efficiently
Dry Needling session with fascial and deep tissue release with adequate stretching of calf muscle and later strengthening the CalF ( Gastro and soleues) will help in reducing the pain
also check if you have flat feet
