You don’t have to accept hip pain as part of your life. When your hip hurts, everything becomes harder – getting out of bed, walking up stairs, even sitting at your desk becomes uncomfortable.

Our approach gets to the source of your hip pain instead of just masking symptoms. Most hip pain comes from spinal misalignments, muscle imbalances, or joint dysfunction that can be corrected without surgery or long-term medication use.

After treatment, you’ll notice improved mobility, reduced stiffness, and the confidence to return to activities you’ve been avoiding. Many patients see significant improvement within just a few visits.

Can chiropractic care really help my hip pain?

Yes, chiropractic care has proven effective for many types of hip pain. Research shows that 60% of patients with severe sciatica-related hip pain avoid surgery through chiropractic treatment.

Hip pain often stems from spinal misalignments that affect how your pelvis and hip joints function. When we correct these alignment issues, pressure is reduced on nerves and joints, allowing natural healing to occur.

Studies also show that four out of five patients with hip arthritis experience significant improvement after nine or fewer chiropractic treatments. The key is addressing the underlying mechanical problems rather than just managing symptoms.

Most patients notice some improvement within the first few visits, though complete resolution varies depending on the underlying cause and how long you’ve had the problem.

Acute hip pain from recent injuries often responds quickly, sometimes within days. Chronic conditions that have developed over months or years typically require more time, but patients usually see meaningful progress within 2-3 weeks.

The advantage of our individualized approach is that we adjust your treatment plan based on how you’re responding. Some patients need only a few visits, while others benefit from longer care plans to address complex issues.

Hip pain has several common causes including sciatica, arthritis, muscle strains, bursitis, and spinal misalignments. The location and type of pain often indicate the underlying problem.

Sciatica causes pain that shoots from your lower back through your hip and down your leg. Arthritis creates stiffness and aching, especially in the morning. Muscle strains cause localized pain that worsens with movement.

We use a combination of chiropractic adjustments to restore proper alignment, massage therapy to reduce muscle tension, and specific exercises to strengthen weak areas. This comprehensive approach addresses both symptoms and underlying causes.

Chiropractic care is considered one of the safest treatments for musculoskeletal problems, including hip pain. Serious complications are extremely rare, especially compared to surgical interventions or long-term medication use.

Our examination process identifies any conditions that might require modified treatment approaches. We use gentle, controlled techniques appropriate for your specific condition and comfort level.

Most patients experience only mild soreness similar to what you might feel after exercise, which typically resolves within 24-48 hours. This is actually a positive sign that your body is adjusting to proper alignment.

We work with most major insurance providers and will verify your benefits during your initial consultation so you know exactly what your care will cost upfront.

Many insurance plans cover chiropractic care for conditions like hip pain, especially when it’s related to spinal problems or documented injuries. Coverage varies by plan, but we’ll handle the paperwork and billing process for you.

For patients without insurance coverage, we offer affordable cash rates and payment plans. Our $37 new patient special makes it easy to get started regardless of your insurance situation.

Your first appointment includes a detailed consultation where we discuss your symptoms, health history, and what activities trigger your pain. This helps us understand not just what hurts, but why.

We’ll perform a thorough examination including movement tests, orthopedic assessments, and possibly X-rays if needed. This comprehensive evaluation helps us identify the root cause of your hip pain.

After the examination, we’ll explain our findings in terms you can understand and discuss your treatment options. If we determine chiropractic care isn’t right for your condition, we’ll refer you to the appropriate specialist.
