Hip Contusion
Bruising around the hip after an impact, which may make walking or position changes uncomfortable.
Physical Therapy for Hip
Hip pain can affect walking, stairs, and getting in and out of a chair. Our care is built around helping you move through your day with greater confidence.
At Greenbelt Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine, we listen to your concerns, assess your movement, and develop a plan around the activities that matter to you.

Focused on Your Hip
Your hip works together with your back and lower limbs during everyday movement. Your therapist considers your mobility, strength, walking, and activity goals when developing your plan.
Your therapist discusses the movements that have become difficult, including walking, climbing stairs, rising from a chair, and getting into or out of a vehicle. We review your relevant medical history and instructions and assess the movement, strength, and function needed for your goals.
Your plan may include mobility work, progressive strengthening, balance activities, and functional movement practice. Post-surgical care is guided by your surgeon’s instructions.
Tell us about your diagnosis, previous treatment, and any surgery or activity restrictions. Your plan is selected for your situation rather than a single routine for everyone with the same symptoms.
Your Rehabilitation Goals
Your therapist selects treatment according to your evaluation, medical guidance, and response to care.
We assess the movement and functional limitations relevant to your concerns.
Your therapist chooses appropriate activities and progresses them within your restrictions.
Your progress and feedback help guide the next steps in your plan.
How We May Help

Guided activities develop the strength and movement control relevant to walking, climbing stairs, rising from a chair, and getting into or out of a vehicle.
Functional practice connects your rehabilitation to the daily activities affected by your hip concerns.
Your therapist explains the plan, reviews your response, and may recommend a personalized home program.
