HIP PAIN TREATMENT IN SOUTH BRISBANE

At Salt Chiropractic, we understand how debilitating hip pain can be, which is why we are dedicated to helping you recover naturally and restore your mobility and quality of life.

Are you experiencing the following?

• Stiffness or reduced range of motion in your hip?

• Pain radiating into your lower back, thigh, or groin?

• Discomfort when walking, climbing stairs, or sitting for long periods?

• A clicking or popping sensation in the hip joint?

• Pain that worsens with activity or weight-bearing?

• Difficulty sleeping due to hip discomfort?

Hip pain is a common issue we see as chiropractors here at Salt Chiropractic. Whether caused by injury, overuse, or lifestyle factors, hip pain can significantly impact your daily activities and overall well-being if left untreated.

Common Causes of Hip Pain

Hip pain can arise from various factors, including:

• Poor posture or gait abnormalities

• Overuse injuries from repetitive movements

• Trauma, such as falls or sports injuries

• Muscle imbalances or tightness

• Hip joint arthritis or degeneration

• Bursitis or inflammation of the hip joint

• Referred pain from the lower back or pelvis

Treating Neck Pain at Salt Chiropractic

At Salt Chiropractic, we take a holistic approach to treating hip pain, addressing the entire neuromusculoskeletal system rather than focusing solely on the affected area. This includes the hip joint, pelvis, lower back, muscles, ligaments, and nervous system.

Our process begins with a thorough assessment, including a detailed clinical history and physical examination. We use orthopaedic, neurological, and musculoskeletal tests to identify the underlying cause of your hip pain. If necessary, we may recommend further diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays.

Once we have an accurate diagnosis, we will explain our findings in clear and simple terms. From there, we will create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs and goals. Treatment may include chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and joint function.

If we determine that additional care is needed, we will connect you with the appropriate healthcare professionals.

Prevention and Education

To support your recovery and long-term health, we provide advice on improving posture, optimising movement patterns, and incorporating specific stretches and strengthening exercises into your routine. By addressing the root causes of hip pain, we aim to help you maintain an active, pain-free lifestyle.
