by Tom Walters (Author), Glen Cordoza (Author)

Find Relief from Hip Pain and Move with Greater Ease and Comfort!

Hip pain can appear in many forms--stiffness at the front of your hip, a deep ache in the glutes, tightness along the hamstrings, or nerve-related symptoms that travel into the leg. When every step feels sharp, pinchy, or weak, it becomes frustratingly hard to trust your body or enjoy the activities you once did.But these symptoms don't automatically mean your hip is beyond improvement. Even when imaging shows arthritis or age-related changes, much of the discomfort often comes from irritated or overloaded tissues--issues that respond well to targeted movement, strengthening, and graded exposure to exercise.With expert guidance and evidence-based exercise strategies drawn from the bestselling book Rehab Science, you can take control of your recovery, reduce your symptoms, and rebuild a strong, resilient hip--right from home.Inside this book, you'll learn: Proven Techniques to Reduce Pain and Restore Motion: Use scientifically-backed strategies--including soft-tissue mobilization, stretching, mobility, and strengthening exercises--to calm irritation, improve function, and restore fluidity in how your hip moves.A Step-by-Step Rehab System: Identify your symptoms, choose the right program, and follow a structured, easy-to-follow rehab protocol designed to improve mobility, rebuild strength, and support long-term hip function.Professionally Guided Exercise Programs: These three-phase protocols--adapted directly from Rehab Science--are tailored to address the most common hip conditions, including: - Hip pain- Hip impingement- Labral tear- Osteoarthritis- Gluteal tendinopathy and trochanteric bursitis- Nerve pain (sciatica stemming from the pelvis)- Piriformis syndrome (deep gluteal pain syndrome)- Hip flexor strain and tendinopathy- Hamstring pain and strain- Groin pain and strainWhether your hip pain is new, the result of overuse, or something you've dealt with for years, these clear and practical protocols give you the tools to understand your condition, build strength where it matters, and prevent future flare-ups.You don't have to let hip pain determine how you move or what you're able to do. With a structured approach and consistent practice, you can restore comfort and feel more capable in your day-to-day life.
