Hip Pain
Hip pain can make walking, getting in and out of a car, or sleeping comfortably a challenge. Common causes include arthritis, bursitis, tendon irritation, and post-surgical weakness. Our physical therapists evaluate how your hips, spine, and legs work together to identify the true source of your discomfort. Treatment focuses on improving strength, mobility, and balance so you can return to daily life with less pain and better control.
