Physiotherapy for Hip Pain
Hip pain can affect much more than just walking. It can make sitting, standing, sleeping and exercising uncomfortable and, over time, really start to limit your normal routine.
Whether the pain came on slowly or started after an injury, physiotherapy can help get things moving more comfortably again.
How Physiotherapy Can Help
Physiotherapy focuses on easing pain while improving how your hip, pelvis and lower back work together. Treatment can help by:
- Reducing pain, stiffness and tightness around the hip
- Improving movement so walking, bending and getting up feels easier
- Strengthening the muscles that support your hip and pelvis
- Improving flexibility and control to reduce the risk of re-injury
What It’s Like to Have Treatment
Your first session will start with a relaxed but thorough chat about your symptoms and how they’re affecting your daily life. You’ll be carefully assessed and given a clear plan from the start.
Your treatment may include:
- Hands-on treatment to relieve tight or painful areas
- Targeted exercises to improve strength and mobility
- Advice on posture, sitting positions and daily habits
- A simple home exercise plan to help you stay in control of your recovery
