OVERVIEW
A sore hip can make you feel stuck. You stand up from the dinner table and need a second before you take a step. Getting in and out of the car turns into a two-part move, and you’ve started sleeping on one side only. Where it hurts matters a lot to us. If you cup your hand around the front crease of your hip, near the groin, that usually means the joint itself, but a sore bump on the outer side or a deep ache in your back pocket after an hour in the car can be something else entirely. We see it all here, whether it’s arthritis, a cranky bursa, a strained tendon, a torn labrum, or a hip that went stiff after a long stretch on the couch. Surgery usually isn’t where we start.
BOOKING APPOINTMENTS
Give us a call, or use the form online if you’d rather type than talk, and tell us if you fell or twisted something. Any X-rays from another office can be sent to us ahead of time, which saves you from getting the same pictures twice.

REQUEST AN APPOINTMENT
Early on, you’ll probably come in once or twice a week. Tell us what time of day works best for you, and we’ll do our best to keep it steady.
DIAGNOSE
EXAM & IMAGING
You’ll walk, squat a little, and stand on one leg while we watch how the hip and pelvis move. We also check the lower back, since back trouble can send pain right into the hip.
TREATMENTS
CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM
Most plans start with strength work for the glutes and thighs, plus stretching for a hip that’s gotten tight. For some people we add hands-on work or a shot, and we’ll probably have something to say about that soft couch you sink into every night.
FOLLOW UP
WE CALL TO CHECK IN
We’ll check your progress every few visits and change the exercises if something stalls. When you’re done, you’ll have a short routine to keep the hip moving at home.

I had an excellent experience at this facility. I didn’t know what to expect, and my arm/shoulder was really hurting. The therapists, the assistants, and the receptionist were all so friendly and put me at ease. Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed going to PT! They were all very professional and knowledgeable, and worked so well together as a team. My arm is back to normal again and I’m so thankful I found them.

What Are You Experiencing?
Most people don’t walk in knowing the exact treatment. They just know something hurts. That’s enough. Use the short form to tell us what’s going on, even if it’s just “my back feels tight” or “this pain won’t leave me alone.” Once we get it, we’ll give you a call and talk through what might be happening and how we can help.
LOW HIGH
SEVERE PAIN
If the pain is so strong you can’t think straight, don’t wait. Call 911 or get to the hospital. Your safety comes first. Once that’s handled, we’ll be here to focus on the next steps with you.
MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT
This kind of pain doesn’t always stop your day, but it makes everything harder. Some describe it as sharp, others say it’s dull and always there. However you explain it, just write it down. We’ll use that to start figuring out what’s going on.
MINOR PAINS & ACHES
Little aches may seem easy to ignore, but they add up. A stiff shoulder in the morning, sore feet after work, or that one spot that acts up every now and then, they matter too. Tell us what you’ve noticed, and we’ll help you get ahead of it.

Answering Your Questions
Why does the outside of my hip hurt?
There’s a bony knob on the side of each hip, and a couple of tendons plus a small cushion called a bursa sit right on top of it. Those get sore from sleeping on that side, climbing stairs, or a weekend of yard work. Lying around waiting for it to pass rarely works, but the right hip exercises usually do.
Can sitting at a desk all day really bother my hip?
Believe it or not, it’s one of the most common reasons we hear. Your hip flexors stay folded up for eight hours while your glutes basically take a nap. Set a timer to stand up and walk to the water cooler now and then.
I have arthritis in my hip. Should I still exercise?
You should, and it tends to help more than anything else. Pedaling a stationary bike, swimming laps, or walking around a flat park all keep the joint loose. We’ll steer you toward whatever your hip tolerates best.
When is hip pain a reason to come in right away?
Come in quickly if you can’t stand on that leg, if you’ve had a fall, or if the hip looks puffy and feels hot to the touch. If it’s waking you up night after night, don’t wait on that either.
Will I need surgery?
Most people with hip pain never do. Exercise, activity changes, and sometimes an injection handle a lot of cases. If surgery becomes the better choice, we’ll explain why and help you plan the next step.
