Hip Pain Relief | Treatment In Dublin, Ireland
Are you suffering from hip pain?
Our physical therapists and chiropractors will identify the cause of your hip pain and provide specialized treatments and care.
Hip pain is a common condition that affects many people every year. It can be caused by injury, osteoarthritis, a labral tear or bursitis, or referred pain from the low back or knee.
If you are experiencing persistent hip pain and it’s interfering with your ability to do day-to-day activities, then it may be time to treat it.
Specific Hip Conditions – What Causes It?
One common cause of hip pain is injury. This can include anything from falling while playing sports, or slipping on the ice while walking your dog in winter! Hip pain can also be due to degenerative changes or inflammation of the joint, associated with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Sometimes it can be a secondary symptom of a back or knee problem. Hip pain may also be posture-related. In some cases, hip pain is the result of a muscle tear or tendinosis (i.e degenerative changes in the tendon due to overuse) in one or more muscles that surround the hip.
Hip Replacement Surgery Or Arthroscopy – Pain At The Side Of The Hip
Hip replacement surgery is a big operation, and we are here to help you through your rehab journey, and get you back to normal and more capable than ever before. A typical approach used by surgeons is to operate through the side of the hip, damaging many muscles that are important in stabilising the hip and pelvis. That is why it is important to rebuild the strength of these muscles and promote the health of your new joint post replacement surgery. When clients come to us post hip replacement we use a combination of therapeutic options, such as physiotherapy, intrinsic core strengthening, and laser therapy.

Physical Therapy Care
Our physical therapists are experts in treating joint pain, and the hip is no exception. They use a combination of hands-on therapies, such as massage therapy and joint mobilizations, and individual and specific exercise therapy to reduce pain, increase mobility, strength, coordination/control, and promote long-joint health.
Our physical therapists also incorporate laser therapy and intrinsic core strengthening into treatment plans.
Laser Therapy effectively reducing pain and inflammation. Whereas Intrinsic core strengthening activates foundation muscles of the core that may be lying dormant, and once utilized can relieve significant stress and load on the joints and other muscles of the body.
Our physical therapists will design goal-specific treatment plans with a purpose in mind – get you back to living a pain-free life, without any concerns of future injuries or flare-ups. Or return to sports feeling stronger than ever.
They will give you control and autonomy over your recovery journey so you can better manage your pain.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy provides highly effective pain relief without any side effects. Laser therapy is non-invasive, drug-free, and can be used with all ages! And once the pain has reduced – we can work on building strength and endurance of the muscles that surround the hip, such as the glutes, iliopsoas, hamstrings, and quadriceps.
Building strength is so important for long-term health and wellness, and the prevention of future injuries.
Intrinsic Core Strengthening
Most people do not use their core muscles correctly or at all. Utilizing our core correctly has so many long-term health benefits.
Our strong core muscles can take a lot of the stress and demands that are put on our bodies. But for most people, the muscles can surround our joints and the somewhat vulnerable structures of our joints (such as the cartilage, ligaments, or bursas) take all the load.
For prevention of injury and pain, for optimal functioning and to truly function to the body’s true potential, it is important to not only use the muscles that surround our joints but also to use our core muscles.
Intrinsic core strengthening will activate your core muscles and help offload the demands and stress put on your joints – that may be contributing to your hip pain.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care at our clinic is more than just pain relief – it’s about improving your overall health and wellbeing!
This means that we are looking beyond the symptoms of hip pain to help you understand what caused them in the first place. We do this with a thorough intake process, analysis of body function for bio-mechanical dysfunction, and the development of a personalized treatment plan.
Chiropractic care is also great for hip pain because it reduces the pressure on your joints by restoring normal movement to stiff or damaged areas of your spine that may be causing you discomfort. This can help increase mobility in your pelvis and hips as well!
We know that no two body is exactly alike; we offer individualized care for each client – this means you will receive the treatments and therapies that best fit your needs and goals!
