How Physiotherapy Helps You Find Lasting Relief
Physiotherapy offers a highly effective, non-invasive solution for managing and resolving hip pain, potentially helping you avoid surgery. Our experienced team provides tailored care by:
- Comprehensive Assessment: We evaluate your hip for misalignment or structural issues, as well as assess your posture, gait, and range of motion.
- Targeted Exercise Plans: Develop specific exercises to reduce joint pain, stabilize weak hips, and strengthen surrounding muscles (including core strengthening for posture and balance).
- Improving Joint Movement: Incorporating specialized treatments like mobilizations to enhance joint function.
- Promoting Tissue Healing: Utilizing soft tissue treatments to relieve pain and aid the recovery of damaged hip tissue.
- Reducing Stress & Strain: Relieving unnatural stresses and strains on your hip joint to improve overall function. Our approach aims to alleviate and potentially eliminate your hip pain, enhancing your overall joint health.
Common Causes of Hip Pain We Treat
Hip pain can stem from various sources within the kinetic chain that connects your hips and knees. Some of the most common conditions we effectively treat include:
- Pinched Sciatic Nerve: Causing pain that can radiate from the lower back through the hip.
- Arthritis Symptoms: Often linked to unbalanced posture or gait.
- Overuse Injuries: Such as tendinitis and chronic muscle strain.
- Acute Injuries: Including sprains, strains, and dislocations of the hip joint.
- Labral Tears: Injuries to the cartilage surrounding the hip socket.
- Muscle Imbalances: Such as tight hip flexors and weak gluteus medius muscles, which can lead to inward hip rotation and issues like IT band syndrome or patellofemoral stress syndrome.
