Hip

It’s our hip joint that is designed to withstand against a fair amount of wear & tear and it the anatomy of the body where the transfer in weight bearing activity occurs.

Hip pain and joint injury is common for all age groups. The hip joint and its integration with your pelvis, SIJ and lumbar spine (lower back) make it a complex region to correctly analyse and assess any dysfunction.

Your hip function can also be affected by lower limb biomechanics involving your knee, foot and ankle plus your thigh and calf muscles.

Causes:

  • Inflammation
  • Injuries
  • Disease
  • Health related weakness
  • Feeling discomfort with the thigh movement
  • Aging
