Hip
Pain
Hip pain can affect every part of your day — from getting out of bed in the morning to walking, exercising, or simply sitting comfortably. It’s more common than many people realise, and in the UK, it’s estimated that up to 25% of people over the age of 55 experience hip pain, often impacting mobility, confidence, and quality of life.
Whether you’re an active adult, a weekend runner, or simply trying to stay mobile and pain-free, our team can help you get back to moving comfortably and confidently.
Why Am I Getting
Hip Pain?
- Hip impingement (FAI) – where bony changes restrict movement and cause joint irritation
- Tendinopathy – particularly gluteal tendinopathy, often felt as pain on the side of the hip
- Osteoarthritis – a common cause of stiffness, aching, and reduced movement in older adults
- Muscle imbalances or weakness – affecting hip control and stability
- Labral tears or cartilage issues – often related to sport or high-impact movement
- Referred pain – from the lower back, pelvis, or sacroiliac joint
Because hip pain can be caused by multiple factors — and can sometimes mimic other conditions — a thorough assessment is essential to guide the right treatment.
