Hip Pain Holding You Back? Let’s Get to the Root of It!

Dealing with hip pain can be frustrating, especially with so many terms and diagnoses thrown around - labral disorders, hip impingement, tendonitis, arthritis, bursitis, sciatica, piriformis syndrome, and more. But here’s the truth: your hip pain isn’t just about one structure.

At Outlive Performance Physical Therapy, we focus on how you move and feel, not just the name of your diagnosis. Our approach digs deeper to uncover how your lifestyle, movement patterns, and habits contribute to your pain so we can address the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Common Diagnoses Explained

Sciatica/Piriformis Syndrome:
This common term describes a variety of symptoms caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back through your hip and down your leg. The nerve can be affected anywhere along its path. Identifying why the irritation occurs is the key to relief.

The piriformis muscle is often blamed for hip pain, but it’s rarely the sole cause. Many other muscles and structures in the hip could be contributing. If stretching your piriformis hasn’t worked, it’s time for a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the true source of your discomfort.
