Acupuncture for Hip Pain
Hip pain is another thing we treat all the time. Hip pain can come from a lot of different reasons. Sometimes it can come from really tight muscles from the sacrum into the hip.
We also sometimes have bursitis and inflammation in the bursa on the side of the hip. Sometimes there’s tendonitis with these gluteal tendons. A lot of times it is an IT band tightness.
So instead of just treating the hip with acupuncture, we really treat the whole system. If there’s an imbalance here in the hip and the body, there’s often going to be an imbalance in the shoulder or on the other side of the body. So the benefit of acupuncture in Chinese medicine is that we’re really treating the whole body to address the root cause and not just putting a bandaid on the symptoms.
