Hip pain is another area that we specialise in at Burton Physiotherapy. We very often see patients with hip pain who have been to other clinics and have often been misdiagnosed and their symptoms not improved.
Hip pain can be very limiting on your normal function, and your ability to carry out daily tasks and sporting activities. When hip pain is severe, even basic tasks such as walking, sitting, driving and climbing stairs can be difficult. Hip pain can be caused by specific injuries such as labral tears, degenerative changes such as osteoarthritis, repetitive muscle and tendon strain from repetitive overuse and in some cases fractures around the hip from trauma.
Physiotherapy is often very effective for hip pain, and it often responds well to targeted strengthening exercises to protect the hip joint, in combination with either shockwave therapy or hands on treatment to reduce pain.
No matter the cause of your hip pain, we have the expertise to correctly assess, diagnose and resolve your hip pain and allow return to your normal activities.
