Chiropractic care offers non-invasive approaches to address hip pain, providing long-term solutions that extend beyond symptom management. Dr. Ryan Woods, clinic director of TexStar Chiropractic’s Buda location, has been utilizing a drop-table adjustment technique with his patients and providing amazing results. Below, we’ll explore the common sources of hip pain and how this chiropractic adjustment can offer relief.
Identifying the Source of Hip Pain
1. Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis, a common cause of hip pain, occurs when the cartilage cushioning the hip joint wears down, leading to pain and stiffness.
2. Bursitis
Inflammation of the small, fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles near joints can result in hip pain.
3. Muscle Strains
Overuse or sudden movements can cause strains in the muscles supporting the hip, leading to discomfort and restricted movement.
Finding Relief Through Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper alignment and function to the body, including the hips. Our doctors utilize various techniques to address hip pain:
- Spinal and Extremity Adjustments: Misalignments in the spine and extremities can contribute to hip pain. Chiropractic adjustments can alleviate pressure on the nerves, reducing hip discomfort.
- Advanced Therapies: specialized techniques like Spot Cryotherapy and MLS Cold Laser Therapy offer non-invasive solutions to help individuals find lasting relief from hip pain and improve overall joint function
- Soft Tissue Therapy: Chiropractors may use soft tissue techniques to address tight or injured muscles around the hip, promoting healing and reducing pain.
- Physical Rehabilitation: Customized exercises can help strengthen the muscles supporting the hip, improving stability and reducing the risk of future pain.
Dr. Ryan Woods, has been providing an advanced adjusting technique utilizing the drop table to effectively address hip discomfort and enhance flexibility. This innovative method aims to gently open up the hip joint, providing relief and promoting improved mobility for individuals seeking chiropractic care. Dr. Woods’s expertise in this technique allows for precise adjustments that target specific areas of pain, offering our patients a comprehensive approach to joint function improvement and overall well-being.
The drop table technique is designed to provide natural and non-invasive relief for individuals dealing with hip discomfort, allowing for individualized tension to be applied to different sections of the spine.
