Hip Pain Treatment Central London

Hip pain can make simple tasks like walking, standing and bending very difficult. That’s why if you’re suffering from hip pain, getting an accurate diagnosis and a personalised treatment plan is so important. What’s more, at CBR Clinic, we’ve helped hundreds of individuals struggling with hip pain in London to get back to what they enjoy, and most importantly do it pain-free.

Hip pain can stem from a variety of conditions including injuries and overuse. It commonly limits mobility, and many patients agree that it affects their overall quality of life. Some of the most common symptoms of hip pain include:

• Stiffness or a reduced range of motion
• Pain in the hip, thigh or groin
• Difficulties walking, sitting or climbing stairs

Some of the leading causes of hip pain are:

• Hip impingement caused by joint compression and muscle imbalances
• Arthritis and other inflammatory conditions
• General wear-and-tear
• Hip bursitis – inflammation around the hip joint
• Injuries, trauma, fractures, sprains, or muscle strains
• Tendinitis – overuse causing tendon inflammation

Hip pain can also occur because of underlying conditions like lower back pain and sciatica. In order to determine the best course of treatment, a professional assessment and diagnosis is required. 

Seeking medical help for hip pain doesn’t just mean that you’ll get access to appropriate treatment, but early diagnosis is also crucial for preventing symptoms from getting worse. At CBR Clinic, we use a combination of evaluation techniques including:

• Physical examination to assess movement and pain points
• X rays to identify joint damage and arthritis
• MRI scans to detect inflammation and soft tissue injury

The best hip joint pain treatment depends on the cause and severity of the hip pain. At CBR Clinic, we offer a range of evidence-based remedies as well as alternative approaches to treat both the pain, additional symptoms and the underlying cause. This includes:

• Physical therapy for strengthening muscles and improving flexibility
• Massage therapy for reducing tension and improving circulation
•  Shockwave therapy for promoting tissue repair
• Acupuncture to reduce pain and inflammation naturally
• Steroid injections for quick pain relief and reduction of inflammation

While these remedies are proven to help, it can take a few weeks for patients to notice an improvement. What’s more, multiple sessions are often required which is why it’s so important to get an early diagnosis.
