Hip and Knee Pain
Hip and knee pain can limit walking, sport and sleep. We assess the joint, the lower back and how you move, then build a plan to get you moving comfortably.
About Hip and Knee Pain
Hip pain can come from the hip joint, the tendons on the outside of the hip, or the lower back. Knee pain is often linked to load, strength and how the hip and foot are working.
Common causes include osteoarthritis, tendon problems, and sport or running overload.
Common signs
- Pain in the groin, outside of the hip or buttock
- Pain getting up from a chair or climbing stairs
- Knee pain with running, squatting or stairs
- Stiff hips limiting your golf swing or walking
How We Can Help
We check the hip, knee and lower back, and test your strength and movement to find the source.
Care centres on chiropractic adjustments to the hip, knee, pelvis and lower back where appropriate, combined with strengthening and graded activity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can hip pain come from my back?
Yes. Pain felt in the buttock or hip can come from the lower back. Part of our assessment is working out which it is.
Should I stop running?
Not necessarily. Adjusting your load is usually better than stopping completely. We will help you plan a sensible return.
