Our Chiropractors Specialize in Treating Hip & Leg Pain
The hip is a large, weight-bearing joint on each side of the pelvis that attaches the femur to the pelvis. The top of the femur bone is shaped like a ball that fits into the pelvic bone socket. This structure allows for fluid movements when walking, sitting, or running. The hips are strong and durable, providing stability for the entire body. However, they can become damaged or worn down due to use, age, or trauma.
The legs are a source of strength and support, helping our bodies complete even the simplest tasks. Pain in one or both legs can interfere with daily life, negatively impacting overall health. The knees, particularly, bear the brunt of our weight and movement. The intricate structure of bones and muscles in the legs is susceptible to various issues — from annoying aches to frustrating sharp pains.
At The Chiropractic Health Center, we specialize in treating hip and leg pain. Our chiropractic care can alleviate pain, improve joint function, strengthen muscles, reduce swelling and inflammation, prevent reoccurring pain, and improve overall health and wellness.
Conditions We Treat
Hip and leg pain can stem from various conditions, each with its own causes and symptoms. Some of the common conditions effectively treated with chiropractic care include:
- Arthritis: When joints become inflamed, causing stiffness, pain, swelling, and fatigue.
- Tendinitis: When the tendons attached to the thigh bone are irritated and inflamed from injury or overuse, causing pain and aches.
- Dislocation: When a blow to the joint causes the ends of the bones to move out of their usual position.
- Bursitis: Occurs when the bursae, the little sacs between the body’s tendons, muscles, bones, and ligaments, become inflamed or swollen.
- Sciatica: Pain resulting from an injury or irritation to the sciatic nerve, a long nerve that runs from the lower back into each leg.
How Chiropractic Care Helps
Our top chiropractic team uses various techniques to reduce pain, improve range of motion and flexibility, and promote overall hip and leg health:
The chiropractor will use a quick motion to gently manipulate the skeletal structure into alignment, helping relieve pain and tension.
During manual therapy, the chiropractor uses their hands to apply pressure and other maneuvers to muscle tissue. This technique improves tissue stability, increases range of motion, encourages relaxation, reduces swelling, and relieves pain.
Chiropractors may recommend specific exercises to strengthen hip and leg muscles, enhance flexibility, and prevent future injuries. These exercise plans are personalized to meet each patient’s needs.
Chiropractors offer guidance on posture, ergonomics, and daily activities to help patients avoid movements and habits that lead to hip and leg pain, reducing the likelihood of recurring pain.
Chiropractors consider the entire musculoskeletal system when treating hip and leg pain, addressing related issues in other areas of the body.
