How Stable Is Your Hip? Hip Pain Treatment. Coogee Chiropractor Near Cockburn, Success and Fremantle

28/10/2019

0 Comments

 
Our hip is a large but delicate region that serves as the foundation of our spine. Like a building, a wobbly foundation could spell trouble for the entire structure, causing damages and injuries. 
Picture
The hip complex is stabilized with a wide range of muscles, most important of which is the gluteal muscles groups. The gluteal muscles group consists of the gluteal maximus, gluteal medius and gluteal minimus. The gluteal muscles stabilize the hip before every movement, thus providing a stable foundation for the body to execute each movement. Failure for the gluteal muscle to stabilize the hip can cause wear and tear or repetitive injuries to the structures surronding it.
 
Some of the most common reasons for the gluteal muscles to weaken are: 
  1. Lack of usage, causing deconditioning. This is especially common for people with sedentary lifestyle such as office workers and bus drivers. 
  2. Previous injuries to the hip region. Injuries can cause the muscles to switch off, causing weakness in the area after the injury heals. 
  3. Faulty posture, causing the gluteal muscles to weaken over time. 
 
Some common injuries associated with weak hip muscles are low back pain, hamstring strain, piriformis syndrome, sciatica and bursitis in the hip.
 
A stable hip is extremely important to ensure proper functioning of our body, thus preventing compensation and injuries. Stay tune for future posts for advises to strengthen our hip muscles.
