Our Gonstead chiropractors provide personalised care to help relieve hip pain, improve mobility and get you moving comfortably and confidently again.
Helping you move more freely
How chiropractic care can help with hip pain.
The hip is one of the largest and hardest-working joints in your body. It plays an important role in almost everything you do, from walking and standing to bending, running and exercising.
Hip pain can develop for many reasons, including joint stiffness, muscular tension, injury, repetitive strain or changes in the way your lower back, pelvis and hips are moving together.
Our chiropractors take a wider look at how your body is functioning rather than focusing solely on where you feel pain. We assess the movement of your hips, pelvis and lower back to identify areas of restriction or dysfunction that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Don’t let hip pain limit how you live.
Understanding your hip pain
Finding out what’s causing your discomfort.
Hip pain isn’t always caused by the hip joint itself. Problems involving the muscles, tendons, lower back or pelvis can sometimes cause pain around the hip, groin, buttock or upper thigh.
That’s why your first appointment starts with a thorough assessment.
We’ll talk about when your pain started, where you feel it, what makes it better or worse and how it’s affecting your everyday life. We’ll then assess your movement, joint function, mobility and surrounding muscles to better understand what may be causing your symptoms.
Where clinically appropriate, we may recommend digital X-rays or further investigation to help determine the most appropriate approach to your care.
Personalised chiropractic care
Helping relieve pain and restore movement.
Once we understand what’s contributing to your hip pain, we’ll create a treatment plan based around your individual needs and goals.
Depending on your assessment, treatment may include gentle chiropractic adjustments to improve movement through the hips, pelvis and lower back, alongside soft tissue techniques to reduce muscular tension and targeted exercises to improve mobility, strength and stability.
We’ll also give you practical advice on movement, posture and everyday activities that may help reduce unnecessary strain on your hip while you recover.
Our goal is to help you move more comfortably, feel more confident in your body and get back to doing more of the things you enjoy.
When to seek help
Is hip pain affecting your everyday life?
Hip pain can present differently from person to person. You may notice discomfort directly around the hip, or symptoms that extend into the groin, thigh, buttock or lower back.
You may benefit from an assessment if you’re experiencing:
- Pain or aching around the hip or groin
- Stiffness after sitting or resting
- Difficulty walking or climbing stairs
- Reduced movement in the hip
- Pain when exercising or playing sport
- Discomfort when lying on one side
- Pain around the buttock or upper thigh
- Recurring hip pain that keeps returning
Understanding what’s contributing to your symptoms is an important first step towards finding the right approach to your recovery.
Don’t let hip pain limit how you live.
