Physical Therapy for Hip Osteoarthritis
Comprehensive Therapy Tailored to Your Needs
At Premier Performance and PT, we understand the challenges that come with hip osteoarthritis and are dedicated to providing you with the best possible care to help you reclaim your mobility and quality of life. Let's delve into what hip osteoarthritis is, its symptoms, and how our tailored physical therapy services can make a difference.
Understanding Hip Osteoarthritis
Hip osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that affects the hip joint, causing pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones wears down over time, leading to bone-on-bone friction and inflammation. Symptoms can include:
Persistent hip pain, often felt in the groin, buttocks, or thigh
Stiffness in the hip joint, especially after periods of rest
Reduced range of motion, making it difficult to perform daily activities like walking or climbing stairs
Swelling and tenderness around the hip joint
A sensation of grinding or crunching in the hip joint during movement

“Dr. Greg and Dr. Kat are terrific. Great listeners. Very patient and guide you at your own speed. Dr. Kat focused on exercises to help with my hip injury as well as specific exercises to help with my golf swing, rotation and balance. Yesterday I was back on my bike and today I will be dining, with the family, at Topgolf. Thanks so much for everything. If you are looking for folks that are athletes, understand athletic injury, and can teach you how to take care of yourself, Premier is the place.” -Mark M.
“I’ve been dealing with morning low back and hip stiffness/pain for many months, especially with my traveling for work. This was preventing me from truly getting back in shape, as well as taking over my mornings. A friend of mine spoke so highly of Dr. Greg, that I figured I would try out one of his free evaluations. Because he didn't take my insurance, I was skeptical about how many times I could actually come. One month and 4 visits later, I was waking up every morning without any issues. When I would travel for work, Dr. Greg taught me very easy things and movements to do that would keep my body in check. Not that I’m old, but I no longer feel old, and able to travel and get back into the gym with my wife. Not to mention, he’s a great guy and all of his appointments are enjoyable to go to. I’ll continue sending my friends and family to him!” -Jason L.
