Pain in the hip area could stem from a lack of support from above or below and weakness or immobility in 
the pelvic area.
Instability or immobility in the foot can be one of the causes of pain in the hip; we have 28 bones and many muscles, joints and ligaments in the foot, which contribute to bottom-up driven movements, which are reflected in movements in the pelvis above.
Equally, compression and stiffness from the upper body can limit top-down driven movements, pressure nerves and joints and result in inefficient movement and pain.
A thorough assessment of stability and mobility can help to pinpoint areas contributing to pain.
Remedial massage and Manual Therapy target specific areas of pain, injury or movement restriction; I look for the cause of the problem rather than just treating the symptoms.
Remedial massage and Manual Therapy balance soft tissue length and tone and help to restore normal function.
Each session involves a consultation and a postural and movement assessment with you in your underwear or shorts and crop top where appropriate. This allows us to identify strain patterns and compensations in your body that could contribute to pain or movement restrictions.
You may be asked to take an active part in the session, get up and walk around to feel changes and perform movement tests during the sessions. Exercise exercises to help strengthen the muscles around your pelvis.
Manual Therapy, Remedial massage and exercise also help with pre & post-surgery for joint replacements and/or scar tissue healing.
