How Does Physical Therapy Help With Hip Pain?

Physical therapy helps by providing relief to your pain without the use of harmful painkillers and surgery (in most cases). Patients that have undergone physical therapy with us have achieved results in less time than it would take to get rid of their hip pain. Our team of certified physical therapists begins by examining your medical history before we proceed to examine your hip. We don’t just stop at your hip, but also examine your knee and ankle in some cases as well. A physical examination is performed, where you will be required to perform some series of movements. This will help us determine your range of motion, coordination, and strength of your hip joint and diagnose the cause of your hip pain. We also walk closely with your medical doctor for other diagnostic and imaging tests.

Physical Examination

Once the cause of your hip pain has been diagnosed, we will create a custom treatment plan for you. This would include:		
	

Manual therapy to relieve pain, muscle tension and to promote circulation in your elbow and forearm.
Therapeutic exercises such as motion and strengthening exercises restore flexibility and strength to your hip. Functional training aimed at controlling movement and coordination and adopting the right posture to prevent recurrence of the pain.		
	

Aside from these, the following treatments could also be used

HIp bursitis

Hip bursitis occurs when the bursae - thin fluid-filled sacs in the hip become inflamed, resulting in pain. This is usually caused by overuse or repetitive movements of the hip.

hip fracture

Fracture in the hip can be a result of a fall, direct hit to the hip, or involvement in automobile accidents. The thigh bone or the hip socket gets broken.

hip strains/sprains

When there is a tear to a ligament or muscle in your hip, a sprain or strain occurs.
