The Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Healing Hip Pain Through Exercise
Save yourself a trip to the doctor's office and try these 5 easy stretches instead!
After working in various clinics as a kinesiologist, I’ve noticed one peculiar thing about us humans. We tend to look for hip pain relief in all the wrong places. Whether it’s X-RAYS, bedrest, or over-the-counter pills, our minds go into ‘quick fix’ mode as we search for a temporary bandaid while ignoring the root causes of pain. Ironically, we rarely think to exercise even though physical therapy is one of the most productive methods for building a strong foundation…not to mention it is completely free!
I do understand, however, that physical activity comes with plenty of barriers. Whether it’s a lack of education or intimidation, it’s not easy to move your body in a painful, vulnerable state. Fortunately, that’s where this simple program comes in. With just 5 minutes and a bit of floor space, you can begin fostering mobility, strength, and overall independence again.
Don’t settle for hip pain any longer. Use movement as medicine and let it open the door to robust living!
