All hip pain comes from strained muscle/fascia outside and around the joint and never from arthritis except for short-lived inflammatory pain during acute flare-up (inflammation). Arthritis itself should be treated medically depending on the type and condition of arthritis, NEVER physical therapy. For the treatment of hip pain, all modalities and procedures of physical therapy are ineffective but often detrimental instead. No total hip replacement unless the hip joint is destructed enough no longer functioning as a hinge or bearing weight. Muscle/fascia strain must be released internally by self-healing initiated via light touch.
Yes, physical therapy helps hip Arthritis, pain, skilled physical therapy to address, myofascial release, pain-free, range of motion, and strengthening all help decrease pain from hip osteoarthritis. Ask your doctor about plasma Rich protein (PRP) injection
Thank you for reaching out to us at with your question about whether physical therapy can help with hip pain. At my office, we often recommend physical therapy as a conservative treatment option for hip pain.
Physical therapy can help improve hip joint mobility, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the muscles surrounding the hip joint. These benefits can lead to reduced pain, improved function, and better quality of life for individuals with hip pain.
However, the effectiveness of physical therapy for hip pain can depend on the underlying cause of the pain. It is important to receive a proper diagnosis from a healthcare provider before starting any treatment, including physical therapy. In some cases, physical therapy may not be the most appropriate treatment option.
