Hip

The importance of your Hip Joint

Whether you’re sitting, standing, walking, or bending, your hips are a fundamental component of your daily life. They consist of a cup-and-ball-like joint that connects the femur, or thigh bone, to the trunk. They not only provide your body mobility but also support your organs and spine. Maintaining hip health is critical for your quality of life and overall physical health!

People of all ages and lifestyles are susceptible to a multitude of different hip conditions. These conditions can be painful, affecting one’s ability to perform daily activities. Common hip problems include joint pain and stiffness, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, hip bursitis, and hip labral tears.
