The video will take a look at the uniqueness of the hip and how there are many factors that can cause the hip to move and be positioned to cause problems and pain. The hip joint will be looked at and how the different structures (Bone and muscles) will affect the position of the hip and the way it will function.
The hip assessment is a very unique assessment that will look at the different range of motions, strength and function movements that affect the hip. After these have been assessed it will look at the different rehabilitation stages and how they must be moved through criteria-based assessment so that the hip will not be flared or reinjured.
Once the correct process is followed the presentation will look at practical ways that the therapist can allow the patient to exercise and move slowly back to their correct activities.
There will also be a major focus on what to avoid as to avoid reinjury or flaring of the hip.
There will be a return to sport assessment as well as return to sport drills that will allow the patient to return safely back to their sport.
