Hip Problems
How is the hip designed and what is its function?
The hip joint is a true ball-and-socket joint. This arrangement gives the hip a large amount of motion needed for daily activities like walking, standing, running and stair-climbing.
The hip is complex with a design that provides a good amount of stability. It allows good mobility and range of motion for doing a wide range of daily activities. Many powerful muscles connect to and cross by the hip joint, making it possible for us to accelerate quickly during actions like running and jumping.
The hip provides such complex stability that, when injured, it has a devastating effect on balance and mobility.
At the Wolff Clinic we frequently treat hip conditions such as:
Treatment:
At the Wolff Clinic, we have the tools to easily diagnose and treat injuries incorporating both neurological and mechanical treatments.
Mechanoreceptors (sensors for movement) are embedded in the tissue surrounding joints. When these tissues get stretched by a misallignment of a joint (i.e. from a fall etc.) this activates an inhibition or weakening of the adjacent muscles. Discovery of these weak muscles and correction of the misalligned joint to restore normal strength is a speciality of the Wolff Clinic practitioners.
Treatments are gentle, safe, natural, non invasive and highly effective. Also, the treatments are designed to correct the root cause of your problem and not simply cover up the symptoms you experience.
