HIP PAIN

The hip is a ball-&-socket joint, similar to the shoulder, but designed to hold up and propel our bodies through life. We often refer to them as “the engines of our body”. They do a lot to keep us upright and mobile. Dysfunction and injury to the hips can greatly impact your ability to perform weight-bearing tasks. This includes activities such as walking, jogging, jumping, pivoting, and running up and down stairs.

We provide a thorough assessment to determine exactly what tissues are involved and how to best address the condition. We strive to help resolve the root cause and prevent it from returning. Our goal is to help alleviate pain and restore hip functionality, to allow you to perform at your highest level possible.

The particular condition and clinical presentation dictate our treatment approach. But, we aim to provide education and interventions that alleviate pain and restore range of motion, strength, and functional mobility through the hip and adjacent joints. Treatment interventions typically include soft tissue and joint mobilization, dry needling, and exercises specifically programmed for each individual case.

The most common hip conditions we see and treat include:

• • Gluteal & hip muscle strains
  • Gluteal tendinopathies
  • Piriformis syndrome
  • Impingement syndrome
  • Osteoarthritis (OA)
  • Bursitis
  • Hip instability
  • Labrum tears
  • Sacroiliac (SI joint) dysfunction
  • Hip replacements
