Personalised Physiotherapy for Hip Pain

Expert Physiotherapy for hip pain, labral tears, tendinopathies, groin strains, sciatica referral and sports injuries. Hands- on treatment and tailored rehabilitation.

Hip pain is a common condition that can affect walking, exercise, daily activities, and overall mobility. Because the hip is a major weight-bearing joint surrounded by strong muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves, pain in this area can come from many different sources. Hip pain may develop suddenly after an injury or gradually due to overuse, posture, or age-related changes.

At our clinic, we take a thorough, whole-body approach to identify the root cause of your symptoms and provide targeted treatment to help you move comfortably and confidently.

Common Hip Pain Conditions We Treat

Hip pain can appear in many ways, from mild stiffness and muscle soreness to persistent discomfort caused by joint or nerve-related conditions. Each type of hip pain has its own underlying causes and requires a tailored approach to treatment.

Book A consultation

Arthritis / Degenerative Changes

Age related changes of the hip joint leading to stiffness, aching, reduced range of motion, and difficulty with weight-bearing activities.

Hip Sprains

Injury to the ligaments supporting the hip joint, typically caused by twisting movements, falls, or sudden force.

Pinched or Trapped Nerves

Nerve irritation around the hip or lower back may lead to sharp pain, tingling, or numbness in the hip, groin, or leg.

Tendinopathies

Overuse or irritation of the tendons around the hip; commonly the gluteal (buttock) iliopsoas (front hip), or hamstring tendons (back thigh), resulting in pain, stiffness, and reduced strength.

Muscle Strains

Overstretching or tearing of the hip or surrounding muscles due to sudden movements, lifting, or sport.

Labral Tears

Damage to the cartilage rim around the hip socket, often causing sharp pain, clicking, catching, or instability.

Groin Strains

Injury to the adductor muscles along the inner thigh, typically caused by rapid changes of direction or overstretching.

Adductor Strains

Pain or injury to the muscles that pull the legs together, often linked with football, hockey, running, or explosive movements.

Sciatica / Referred Pain

Pain originating from the lower back or pelvis can radiate into the hip or leg, sometimes mimicking hip joint problems.

Snapping Hip Syndrome

A sensation or sound of snapping in the hip caused by tight tendons or muscle imbalances. This may be painless or associated with irritation.

Trauma & Sports Injuries

Injuries from falls, collisions, or high-intensity sports can lead to bruising, joint irritation, muscle tears, or more complex hip injuries.

Our Physiotherapy Approach to Hip Pain

Our Physiotherapists or Sports Therapists specialise in identifying what’s causing your sciatica and providing targeted treatment to relieve pain and restore normal movement.

Comprehensive Assessment

We begin with a full assessment to understand the cause of your back pain. This includes:

  • Detailed discussion about your symptoms
  • Strength, range of movement, and functional testing
  • Identification of contributing factors such as muscle imbalance, lifestyle, or work setup

This allows us to create a tailored treatment plan that targets your specific needs.

Hands-On Treatment

Our Physiotherapists or Sports Therapists use a range of proven manual therapy techniques, such as:

  • Soft tissue release
  • Joint mobilisation
  • Trigger point therapy
  • Myofascial release
  • Guided stretching

These methods help reduce pain, relieve muscle tension, improve mobility, and support the healing process.

Exercise Rehabilitation

We provide personalised exercise programmes to restore strength, range of movement, and control. This may include:

  • Core and spinal stabilisation
  • Mobility exercises
  • Gradual return-to-work or return-to-sport programmes

Education & Self-Management

We ensure you understand how to manage your symptoms, help prevent flare-ups, and improve long-term back health.
