Hip tendinopathy is a condition involving irritation or degeneration of the hip tendons, often causing pain on the outer hip or deep in the groin. It commonly develops from overuse, repetitive loading, or muscle imbalance. Pain may worsen with walking, climbing stairs, or prolonged standing.
Physiotherapy helps treat hip tendinopathy by reducing tendon strain and improving load tolerance. Through guided exercises and hands-on care, physiotherapy relieves pain, restores strength, and supports a gradual return to comfortable, functional movement.
Hip tendinopathy affects how hip tendons manage daily and athletic loads. Physiotherapy focuses on improving strength, movement control, and tissue resilience.
Outer hip or groin pain
Pain with walking or stairs
Discomfort during side-lying
Reduced hip strength
Pain after activity
Physiotherapy supports tendon healing, improves hip function, and reduces re-injury risk.
Manual therapy and soft tissue techniques reduce tendon irritation and improve comfort.
Therapeutic exercises gradually strengthen hip tendons and improve load tolerance.
Targeted strengthening improves hip control, reduces strain, and supports long-term recovery.
