Hip Pain: What’s the Issue?
Hip pain can throw a wrench in your day, making walking, sitting, or exercising a struggle. Your hip, a vital joint of bones, muscles, and ligaments, supports movement but is prone to strain or injury.
What Causes Hip Pain?
Hip pain can stem from overuse, poor posture, or sudden injuries. Common issues include bursitis, tendonitis, labral tears, or arthritis. Weak glutes, tight hip flexors, or improper footwear can worsen the discomfort.
How Sports Massage, Dry Needling, and Remedial Therapists Can Help
Isy, our experienced therapist, leads our approach to hip pain relief. Using sports massage and dry needling, she targets trigger points, reduces muscle tension, eases inflammation, and boosts blood flow to promote healing. After assessing your movement and posture, we create a tailored plan with massage, dry needling, stretches, or strengthening exercises to relieve pain and prevent recurrence.
Tips to Keep Hip Pain at Bay
Isy shares effective strategies to avoid hip pain. Simple habits like strengthening glutes, maintaining proper posture, or using supportive shoes can make a big difference. We recommend regular sessions to maintain mobility and catch minor issues early.
