Hip Pain Treatment Abbotsford
Five Dock Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Centre proudly offer quality hip pain treatment to residents in Abbotsford and surrounding suburbs.
Hip pain can make daily life and participation in leisure and sport unbearable. Everyone can experience hip pain, and often physiotherapy is the best solution. If you are diagnosed and treated by a physiotherapist, you can ensure your hip pain will be reduced and your functionality increased.
Problems treated by a physiotherapist include but are not limited to osteoarthritis, muscle tears, overuse injuries, labral tears, impingement and bursitis.
Causes
Sports and everyday activity can lead to hip pain, but sometimes it can emerge for no apparent reason. Physiotherapists are experts in the diagnosis of your hip pain and identifying the structure(s) injured.
The areas in the hip that are usually affected are the joint itself, and the muscles, bursa, ligaments and tendons surrounding the joint. To understand the bio-mechanical structure of the hip is important as an incorrect diagnosis could lead to useless or ineffective treatment.
To ensure a correct diagnosis is determined, a physiotherapist will complete a thorough assessment and devise a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.
Treatment
Recovery from hip pain often involves physio exercises for rehabilitation. Hands on manipulative treatments such as joint mobility work to release tension in the muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments. Dry needling can also be used for further muscle release.
Exercises prescribed by physios are tailored to your specific condition and can help you get moving again. Moreover, your physiotherapist will design a program that can be completed within your requirements.
