Hip Treatments in Kansas City

Are you experiencing hip pain?

Hip pain can be caused by repetitive stress as well as poor movement patterns. Deep squatting or repetitive hip flexion can compress or cause repetitive strain to muscles and tendons that surround and stabilize the hip causing tearing and/or inflammation. Certain muscles like the piriformis can become tight or inflamed in the back of the joint compressing a nerve that can cause symptoms as well.

Possible Treatments for Hip pain

Common treatments for hip pain vary depending on the causative factors. Evidence based treatment protocols are vital for long lasting beneficial effects. Leading soft tissue therapies for the hip include A.R.T., Dry Needling, Graston and rehabilitative exercise.

Treatments usually consist of isolating the root cause of the hip pain and introducing the best possible interventions. Possible treatments could be dry needling to reduce inflammation, prescription of proper strengthening and stretching exercises to reduce asymmetries and Graston or A.R.T. to reduce myofascial tension and adhesions. Should surgery be required physical therapy is beneficial for both preoperative and post operative strengthening and retraining of motion.
