Is your hip pain preventing you from doing the things you enjoy or affecting your ability to work? If you are looking for hip pain relief, you are not alone; Physio For Life can help.
Hip pain can be agonizing, and you may believe that the only way to relieve it is to take over-the-counter medications or go for a hip replacement. However, it is possible to get rid of it for good at our Vancouver physiotherapy center, with the help of skilled experts.
If you have hip pain, physiotherapy can help you get to the bottom of your problem effectively and efficiently, without the need for drugs with side effects or invasive surgery.
What causes hip pain?
All our body parts should work together to ensure we are able to move freely. If anything is out of whack, hip pain can happen.
Here are some common causes of hip pain:
- Iliotibial band syndrome
- Hip flexor muscle strain or tightness
- Weak gluteus medius muscles
- Pinched sciatic nerve
- Unbalanced posture or gait
- Acute injuries (sprains, strains, and dislocations)
- Cartilage tears/labral tears
- Overuse injuries (tendonitis or tendinopathy)
- Muscle strain of any of the muscles around the hip
The best way to determine the true cause of your hip pain is to see our experienced physiotherapist for a thorough evaluation. Make an appointment at Physio For Life today!
Finding hip pain relief in Vancouver
Physiotherapy is a safe way to determine the cause of your hip pain. We provide patients with information and tools to combat their symptoms and prevent them from being an everyday hurdle.
To start, a qualified physiotherapist from Physio For Life in Vancouver will check your hips for signs of misalignment or structural damage. Your physiotherapist will also assess your gait, posture, balance, and range of motion.
Specific exercise programs are given to patients to alleviate joint pain and increase mobility. A customized treatment plan will be created for you.
Exercises to strengthen the right muscles and stretch tight ones will be included in your physiotherapy treatment plan. In addition, core exercises will improve your low back/ pelvic/ hip stability and help distribute your weight more evenly.
Joint mobilization techniques may be included as well. These techniques aid in enhancing movement, promoting healing of injured tissues, and relieving hip pain.
Total Hip Replacement
Physio for Life is experienced with rehabilitation after total hip replacement or after fracture and surgical repair of the neck of femur. We often provide at-home treatments as our clients will not have the mobility to travel far in the early stages. Our treatments follow the protocol and recommended progressive exercises to ensure a smooth recovery. Massage is a big part of recovery to reduce swelling and scar tissue formation which often causes the most pain.
You will be back to your favorite hobbies in no time, with more mobility and less pain!
