What does hip pain feel like?

Hip pain can affect different areas and may vary depending on the underlying problem.

You may experience:
• Pain around the front, side or back of the hip
• Groin or buttock discomfort
• Hip stiffness or reduced movement
• Pain when walking or climbing stairs
• Discomfort when standing after sitting
• Pain during exercise or other activities
• Difficulty getting comfortable at night
• Symptoms travelling into the thigh or buttock

Everyone experiences hip pain differently, which is why an individual assessment is important.

What can cause hip pain?

There are many possible causes and contributing factors associated with hip pain.

These can include:
• Joint stiffness or irritation
• Muscle tension or weakness
• Changes in activity levels
• Repetitive or sporting activities
• Previous injuries
• Reduced hip or lower-limb mobility
• Changes associated with ageing
• Problems affecting the lower back or pelvis
• Changes in walking or movement patterns

Sometimes the source of discomfort is straightforward, while in other cases several factors may be involved.

Your chiropractor will consider your symptoms, health history and everyday activities when assessing whether chiropractic care is appropriate.

Hip pain and the lower back

The hip, pelvis and lower back work together during many everyday movements.

For this reason, your chiropractor may consider the surrounding areas as part of your assessment rather than focusing solely on where you feel pain.
This may include looking at:
• Your hip and lower-back movement
• Walking and general movement
• The muscles around your hips and legs
• Previous injuries
• Activities that aggravate or ease your symptoms

This doesn't mean that hip pain necessarily comes from your lower back. Instead, considering the wider movement of your body can help your chiropractor understand your individual circumstances.

If your symptoms include pain, tingling or other sensations travelling into the leg, mention this during your appointment. You may also find our Sciatica Treatment in Matlock page useful.

How we approach hip pain at So Healthy

At So Healthy, we believe good care starts with listening.

Your chiropractor will take a relevant health history and carry out an appropriate physical assessment. They'll then explain their findings and discuss the options that may be suitable for you.

Depending on your individual circumstances, your care may include:
• Chiropractic manipulation or mobilisation, where appropriate
• Soft-tissue techniques
• Movement and rehabilitation exercises
• Stretching and strengthening exercises
• Posture and movement advice
• Practical lifestyle guidance

Your care will be tailored to your symptoms, preferences and goals rather than following a standard programme.

Esther was really helpful. Explained the process well as it was my first time and I left feeling better than when I went in!

I go to the Kempston branch to see Esther. She is thorough and efficient when she treats me but also is kind and compassionate. I always come away feeling better than when I walked in.

I have been using the so healthy wellness centre for many many years now and having a quality chiropractor available to see each month has helped me to keep playing tennis 🎾, plus doing many others things that I don’t think I’d be able to do if I didn’t have these regular checkups and adjustments. Many thanks

Great visit to Esther again. She immediately finds the issues and swiftly painlessly and effectively treats them. Lovely receptionist too.
