Hip Pain:
This is a very common presentation of hip pain which can be a debilitating condition that affects your daily life.
Say Bye Bye to Hip Pain
Hip pain is not merely a discomfort; it’s an adversary that disrupts your daily activities. The affliction of it can vary, stemming from age-related wear and tear, injuries, or inflammation caused by conditions like arthritis, bursitis, or tendinitis. Imagine, even the simplest acts of walking and standing become arduous tasks due to severe or acute hip problems.
Whether it’s due to age-related wear and tear, injury, or inflammation caused by conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, or tendinitis, hip pain can make even the simple tasks like walking and standing painful.
Hip Arthritis: Arthritis, commonly affecting older adults, is a frequent contributor to hip pain. It manifests through inflammation, stiffness, and discomfort within the hip joint.
Injuries: Various hip injuries, including fractures, dislocations, and sprains, can result in significant hip pain and discomfort within the hip joint.
Hip Bursitis: Bursitis arises when the bursae, fluid-filled sacs cushioning the joints, become inflamed. This inflammation leads to hip pain and swelling.
Tendinitis: Tendinitis, characterized by tendon inflammation, induces hip joint discomfort and stiffness.

Hip and lower back pain often occur together, as these areas are interconnected through the pelvic joint, known as the sacroiliac joint. This joint links the sacrum, located at the base of the spine, to the ilium, the large hip bone. Therefore, issues in one area can affect the other.
Sciatica is a common culprit behind hip and lower back pain. It happens when the sciatic nerve, running from the lower back down through the hips and legs, gets compressed or irritated. This leads to pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in these regions, often due to a herniated disc in the lower back.
At VITAL Health, we understand the significant impact hip and lower back pain can have on daily life. That’s why we offer effective hip pain treatment aimed at addressing the root causes and restoring mobility and comfort.
Our skilled team conduct thorough assessments to identify the underlying issues contributing to your pain. Employing a holistic approach, we treat not just the symptoms but the whole person.
Pain in the hips often coincides with leg pain due to the intricate connection between the hip joint and the lower extremity. Serving as a pivotal ball-and-socket joint, the hip facilitates a wide range of movements essential for mobility, such as bending, twisting, and rotating the leg. Discomfort originating from the hip can extend to the leg, resulting in knee pain and restricted movement.
One prevalent cause of hip and leg pain is hip osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint condition affecting cartilage health. Common symptoms include pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility in the hip joint, often radiating down the leg. While more prevalent among older adults, osteoarthritis can also affect younger individuals with a history of hip injuries or trauma.
Additionally, hip bursitis can contribute to hip and leg discomfort. This condition arises from inflammation of the bursae, fluid-filled sacs responsible for cushioning the hip joint. Overuse, repetitive movements, or hip injuries commonly trigger bursitis, resulting in hip tenderness that may extend down the leg.
In certain instances, hip and leg pain may stem from sciatica, characterized by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve. Manifesting as pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness, sciatica can affect the leg, hip, and lower back regions.

“It sounds silly but it’s totally changed my life,
I have been suffering with knee problems since 2017 and I got to the stage where my consultant told me I needed a knee replacement.
I went online and found you, and I’m so glad I did because Lauren prevented me from having knee surgery and the difference is amazing…
I couldn’t do simple things like go to the shop on my own, or walk my dogs. I was scared my knees were going to give way. I can now walk both my dogs on my own and for a couple of miles now, which probably doesn’t sound much, but to me is amazing!”
“My journey with VITAL Health over the past 8 weeks has been nothing short of life-changing.
After weeks of dedication and care from the team, I’ve not just overcome my shoulder pain that held me back but I’m now playing 18 holes!
Thanks to the unwavering support and expertise of the team, I’m back on the golf course, pain-free- and I even got to compete in an upcoming competition!
I couldn’t be more grateful.”
“I actually look forward to coming here. The treatments feel so natural, and everyone here genuinely wants to help. It’s been a complete game-changer for me
I had continual neck and back pain. I tried everything, but nothing gave me more than temporary relief. I was desperate and willing to try anything at this point. I came in quite skeptical as I’d already tried so much but the results were incredible…
I’m now pain-free and that feels like an absolute revelation!
I can spend all day gardening again , something I thought I might never be able to do. I really believed this pain was going to be my life forever, but it’s not anymore, and that feels fabulous.”
“I feel younger, fitter, healthier… I think I’m a new woman really
I was in alot of pain but just kept going regardless. I couldn’t spend more than a few minutes on my feet and by the end of a shift I was having great difficulty walking.
I eventually decided to visit VITAL Health afetr my husband had been coming for some time and since coming it has made a huge difference to my life…
It was so reassuring that the team could help me as I had such a long list of problems in my assessment but Lauren was very encouraging and I now know don’t have to live with pain anymore.”
“I didn’t know what to expect visiting VITAL Health but Georgia and the team were extremely good and calmed me down that there was nothing to worry about…
I’d been suffering with a stiff neck and it was almost impossible for me to look to the right-from visiting VITAL Health for just 5 weeks you have got rid of my pain and I can turn my head as far as I want when driving!
… It’s been well worth while coming here.”
