Hip Pain
Hip pain can stem from a number of sources, joint restriction, muscle imbalance, bursitis, or referred pain from the lower back and pelvis. It often shows up as a deep ache in the hip or groin, stiffness after sitting, or pain that radiates into the thigh or buttock, and can make walking, climbing stairs, or standing for long periods uncomfortable.
How We Treat Hip Pain at Club West Chiropractic
Our Blaine chiropractors perform a detailed exam of the hip, pelvis, and lower spine to identify the true source of the pain, since hip pain is frequently connected to alignment issues elsewhere in the body. Chiropractic adjustments are used to restore proper joint mechanics in the hip and pelvis.
We combine this with acupuncture to address pain and inflammation, and Graston Technique to break up scar tissue and adhesions in the muscles and fascia surrounding the joint. A guided therapeutic exercise program rounds out care, helping strengthen the muscles that support the hip and prevent the pain from returning.
If hip pain is slowing you down, schedule an appointment to get to the source of it.
