Hip pain can stem from various sources, including misalignments in the spine or pelvis, muscle strains, joint dysfunction, or inflammation. Chiropractic care can address these issues by performing adjustments to realign the pelvis and spine, reducing pressure on the hip joint, and improving overall mobility. Common causes treated include pelvic misalignment, hip labral tears, muscle imbalances, and arthritis-related pain.

Chiropractic adjustments help alleviate hip pain by addressing misalignments and dysfunctions in the pelvis and lower spine. Realigning these areas can reduce stress on the hip joint, improve joint function, and relieve associated pain. Chiropractors may also use complementary techniques, such as soft tissue therapy and specific exercises, to enhance muscle strength and flexibility around the hip, supporting better overall function and pain relief.

Yes, chiropractic care can be effective for managing chronic hip pain. By focusing on spinal and pelvic alignment, chiropractors work to address the underlying causes of chronic pain. They may combine adjustments with targeted exercises, stretching, and lifestyle recommendations to improve hip function and reduce discomfort over time. Regular chiropractic care can help manage symptoms and potentially slow the progression of chronic conditions affecting the hip.

The number of chiropractic sessions required to see improvement in hip pain varies depending on the severity of the condition, individual response to treatment, and overall health. Some patients may experience relief after a few sessions, while others may require more frequent visits to achieve significant improvement. Your chiropractor will assess your specific condition and develop a personalised treatment plan, including the frequency of sessions, to address your hip pain effectively and help you achieve optimal results.
