Hip Injury Rehab and Physical Therapy
Activity First Physical Therapy Puts Our Patients First
Hip Injury Rehab
Any hip injury can severely limit your regular daily activities, even a minor hip injury. That's why hip injury rehab is so critical for people experiencing hip pain from an injury. Physical therapy can help you regain the function and mobility of your hip while you're healing. Patience and consistency are key when dealing with any sort of hip injury. If you push yourself too hard too soon, you could injure yourself further. This is why it's important to work with a team of physical therapists like the one at Activity First PT. They will set up the proper timeline and treatment plan for you!
The Evaluation Process
Before your physical therapy begins, the Activity First PT team will need to evaluate your mobility and range of motion. For instance, they may conduct a "gait evaluation", where your therapist observes how you walk to help them determine how your hip injury affects your mobility. They may also monitor your hip area to identify any abnormalities or swelling while you heal.
Pain Management
Managing your hip pain is a large part of the rehab process. As you heal, your physical therapists will help you manage your pain with different methods. Be sure to communicate any pain with your physical therapist at any point. This includes whether you are in the middle of a session or even at home. They can help you manage any discomfort and make sure you're not experiencing any abnormal pain during the rehab process.
Building Back Strength
The main goal of hip injury rehab is to regain the strength and mobility you had before your hip injury. To get you there, your physical therapists will guide you through exercises and stretches to build up your muscles and hip joints.
