Physical Therapy for Hip Pain

in Arlington, VA


Hip pain can make everything from walking to working out feel like a chore—but it’s rarely something you just have to put up with. Many cases labeled as “hip bursitis” are actually due to gluteal tendinopathy, a highly treatable condition affecting the tendons around the hip (Grimaldi et al., 2015). While scans and labels can sound concerning, they often don’t match what’s what’s driving your pain.

That’s why I focus on a personalized, movement-based approach to address hip pain that addresses strength, mechanics, and capacity—especially around the glutes and pelvis. Progressive exercise therapy has strong evidence for improving function and reducing pain in lateral hip conditions (Mellor et al., 2018), often outperforming injections or passive treatments. Whether you're trying to run, lift, or simply sit comfortably again, we’ll create a plan that helps you move with strength and confidence.
