Effective Hip Pain Treatment
Hip pain results from sports, osteoarthritis, or one-sided strain. We treat both acute and chronic hip complaints.
Typical causes of hip pain
Osteoarthritis (Coxarthrose)
Wear and tear of the hip joint is the most common cause of persistent hip pain.
Overuse
Intense sports or one-sided strain irritate tendons and bursae (Bursitis).
Muscular Imbalance
Shortened or weakened hip muscles lead to improper loading.
Misalignment
Pelvic or leg-axis misalignments place uneven strain on the hip joint.
Previous injuries
Injuries of the hip or pelvis that have not fully healed lead to persistent complaints and improper loading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can physiotherapy really help with hip osteoarthritis?
Yes! Studies show that targeted muscle training significantly reduces pain in hip osteoarthritis. Strong muscles relieve the joint. Many patients can avoid or delay surgery through physiotherapy.
Should I exercise with hip pain or rather take it easy?
Movement is important! Guarding postures lead to muscle loss and worsen the complaints. Joint-friendly activities such as cycling (with the correct settings!), swimming or Nordic walking along the Rhine are recommended.
What is the difference between hip osteoarthritis and bursitis?
Hip osteoarthritis causes groin pain and start-up pain, whereas bursitis (Bursitis) hurts on the side of the hip, especially when lying down. We will help you tell them apart.
Does health insurance cover the costs?
Yes, with a medical prescription the costs are covered by statutory and private health insurance.
