Hip Pain

Sound familiar?

Your hip has been nagging for a while. Maybe it’s a deep ache on the outside that flares when you lie on that side, or a stiffness in the joint that shows up on stairs and after sitting.

You’ve tried resting it, stretching it, maybe even an injection. It calmed down for a bit, then came back.

Here’s the thing: it’s usually not that the hip is worn out. It’s that no one has changed what’s actually driving the pain.

Why it keeps coming back

A cortisone injection can settle a hip down for a while, and rest can take the edge off.

But if the load on the hip and the strength around it never change, the pain has every reason to return, because nothing about the cause moved.

The way out isn’t another injection or more time off. It’s rebuilding how the hip tolerates load, so sitting, walking, and stairs stop setting it off.

The recovery roadmap

What’s different

A full hour, one-on-one

Every session is an hour with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. No aides, no rushed table time, no bouncing between machines.

We assess, we don’t guess

We find what is actually driving your pain: how you move, your strength, your load tolerance. No guessing from the spot that hurts.

A test to pass, not just more exercises

You progress by hitting real, measured milestones, so you know your hip is actually getting stronger, not just hoping it is.

Always in your pocket

Your plan, your progressions, and a line to your clinician live in the EVO app, so you are never guessing between sessions.

Who we help

Outer-hip pain that flares lying on that side at night+

We calm the irritated tendon and rebuild the strength around the hip so it can carry load without flaring.

A deep, stiff, achy hip with some mileage on it+

We build the capacity and movement quality that keep an arthritic hip active, so it handles more with less flare.

Pinching in the front on deep squats or long sits+

We work on how your hip and pelvis share load and control range, so the joint stops catching at end range.

A glute or groin that fatigues and aches with running+

We find why it breaks down as mileage climbs and rebuild it so you can run without paying for it after.

A post-op hip rebuilding capacity+

We bridge cleared to confident, progressively rebuilding strength and control until the hip is ready for everything you want back.

A hip that feels weak or unstable on one leg+

We rebuild single-leg strength and control so stairs, hikes, and sport feel solid again.

The approach, backed up

Rebuilding a hip with load management and exercise instead of leaning on passive fixes is where the evidence points.

In a randomized trial for stubborn outer-hip pain (gluteal tendinopathy), a program of education plus exercise outperformed both a cortisone injection and a wait-and-see approach.

At one year, about 78% of the education-plus-exercise group rated their hip much improved, versus about 52% who waited it out, and exercise beat the injection over that year. This is the whole reason we build capacity rather than chase temporary relief: what calms a hip and what keeps it calm are two different things.
