Hip Pain Relief in Portland and Gresham
Get Back to Moving Comfortably Again
When hip pain slows you down, everything feels harder—sitting, standing, walking, even getting in and out of the car. Whether it’s a dull ache that never quite fades or sharp pain that takes your breath away, it’s not something to ignore. And yet, many people try to “wait it out,” hoping it will go away on its own.
Your pain may stem from all sorts of sources. Car accidents, falls, work-related injuries, and even the wear and tear of daily life all have the potential to affect the hip joint. But no two injuries are alike, so the first step is always listening closely. At Woodstock Chiropractic, we start with a thorough history and physical exam, using orthopedic tests specific to the hip to pinpoint what’s going on. If needed, we can take digital X-rays right here in the office. And if deeper damage is suspected, such as a labral tear or a more complex injury, we’ll refer you for an MRI for a clear answer.
Feel the Relief with Tailored Adjustments
Chiropractic care can offer real relief for people with hip issues. We use focused adjustments designed specifically for the hip joint, carefully applied to restore mobility and reduce discomfort. Our drop table technique is also great for handling hip-related conditions, allowing us to adjust the joint gently and precisely.
Is It Misalignment or Something More?
Some patients wonder if their pain is caused by a joint being “out of place” or something more chronic, like arthritis. During your visit, we’ll look at how you move, ask specific questions about your symptoms, and take images when necessary. If arthritis is present, that’s helpful to know, but it doesn’t always mean it’s the sole cause of your pain. Misalignments, even in the presence of arthritis, can cause significant discomfort and are worth correcting.
Real Results You Can See
One of our patients, a 60-year-old woman, came in after a fall that left her struggling with hip pain. Her care plan included gentle adjustments, soft tissue work, cupping therapy, and guided exercise therapy. Week by week, she made steady progress. By the end of her care, her mobility had improved, and she reported feeling stronger, more balanced, and pain-free.
