Hip Pain Treatment Skerries

Conditions affecting the hips are diverse and can include hip tendonitis, trochanteric or hip bursitis, gluteal tendinopathy, greater trochanter pain syndrome, arthritis, and pain that may radiate from other sites such as the back or buttocks. At our physiotherapy clinic, we prioritize a thorough assessment of your hip mobility and strength to pinpoint the specific issues contributing to your discomfort.

During the assessment, our experienced physiotherapists expect to identify weaknesses in the gluteal muscles, tenderness in the affected area, and potential restrictions in your range of motion. This comprehensive evaluation allows us to tailor a personalized treatment plan to address the root cause of your hip pain.

As part of your treatment, we provide a targeted strengthening program designed to enhance the stability and function of the hip muscles. Strengthening exercises play a pivotal role in improving overall hip health and preventing the recurrence of pain.

In addition to exercises, our therapists may incorporate advanced techniques such as dry needling and massage to alleviate current symptoms of pain and stiffness. Dry needling involves the precise insertion of thin needles into specific trigger points, aiming to release tension and improve muscle function. Massage therapy, on the other hand, helps to enhance blood flow, reduce muscle tightness, and promote relaxation in the affected areas.
