Despite common belief, surgery is not the only appropriate intervention for hip pain. Chiropractic care is a safe, gentle and effective way to treat most hip pain without having to resort to invasive methods. The Gunderman Chiropractic and Wellness Center team treats your pain holistically through chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, laser therapy and more. Whether your pain is acute or more severe, our team looks forward to helping you find relief.

Causes Of Hip Pain

During your consultation with our chiropractors, the first step is discussing your symptoms and finding a diagnosis. We take a broad approach to diagnosing your pain, also taking into account your lifestyle and medical history in addition to your symptoms. There are a variety of reasons that patients experience hip pain, including:

  • Bursitis: This condition causes the small sac that acts as a cushion to the hip bone to become inflamed. It is thought to be caused by putting too much pressure on the hip and is accompanied by pain, swelling and decreased functionality.

  • Tendonitis: Tendonitis is caused by stress on the hip tendon and refers to an inflamed hip joint. The condition results in pain, irritation or stiffness around the joint.

  • Injuries: Injuries to the hip are typically attributed to sports injuries or falls and include strains, sprains, tears and dislocations. Though we treat a wide range of hip pain, we may recommend patients with serious breaks and fractures see a specialist.

  • Arthritis and other conditions: Chronic conditions can cause hip pain, including arthritis, osteoporosis and structural conditions that affect the shape of the hips.

Herniated discs in the lower back can contribute to pain in the hip. In order to treat the pain, our team may recommend disc techniques such as the Flexion-Distraction Technique or Lumbar Blocking. In addition to helping manage pain symptoms, these techniques can help improve range of motion and functionality in the hips.
