When hip pain only shows up on the bike, the position you ride in can be an important clue. 🚴 Here's a real-life case of a client we helped recently:

This 59-year-old long-distance cyclist was experiencing pain at the front of his hip and thigh, particularly when riding in an aero position.
Assessment showed significantly restricted hip movement, and diagnostic ultrasound identified a small cam-type bony irregularity at the hip joint.
But the scan was only one part of the picture.

Swipe through to see how the symptoms, clinical assessment, imaging and demands of cycling were considered together - and how we treated this patient.

If hip pain is beginning to affect your riding, a physiotherapy assessment can help identify what may be contributing to it.

Do I need orthotics?

Well, not everyone with foot or ankle pain needs them.

Depending on the cause, you may benefit more from rehabilitation, footwear advice, physiotherapy, shockwave therapy or changes to activity.

A biomechanical assessment helps identify what is contributing to your symptoms before any treatment is recommended.

Where orthotics may help, our specialist, Thomas, can advise whether semi-bespoke or fully bespoke options are most suitable for you.
Assessment first. Recommendation second.

Persistent tendon or soft-tissue pain that isn’t settling?
Shockwave therapy is a specialist treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing response.

It may be considered for certain persistent conditions, including:
▪️ Plantar fasciitis
▪️ Achilles tendinopathy
▪️ Tennis or golfer’s elbow
▪️ Patellar tendinopathy
▪️ Hip and gluteal tendon pain
▪️ Certain shoulder tendon problems
▪️ Persistent soft-tissue pain

Shockwave is non-surgical and does not involve an injection - but it isn’t a quick fix for every type of pain.

At W5Physio, shockwave therapy is used as part of a wider treatment plan. Depending on your condition, this may also include tailored rehabilitation, strengthening, activity advice and changes to the way the affected area is being loaded.An assessment is always completed first to establish whether shockwave is appropriate.

Find out more through our website - https://w5physio.co.uk/shockwave-therapy/ - or contact the team if you’re unsure whether it could help.

Please join us in welcoming Sarah Didier to W5Physio! 👋

Sarah brings a great mix of physiotherapy, sports and rehabilitation experience to the team, with a particular interest in helping people move better, recover well and get back to the activities that matter to them.

Her background in sport gives her a practical understanding of injury, performance and recovery, while her approach is very much centred on the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

We’re really pleased to have Sarah on board and wish her lots of luck in her new role.

Is your back trying to tell you something?

At W5Physio, we look at what's causing your symptoms and put together a treatment and rehabilitation plan that's right for you.

Whether your goal is getting back to the gym, enjoying a walk or simply getting through the day more comfortably, we're here to help.

❓️“Will a physiotherapist just give me some exercises?”

Exercises can be an important part of recovery - but they should not be the entire experience.

Physiotherapy treatment may include:

▪️ A thorough assessment
▪️ A clear explanation of your symptoms
▪️ Hands-on therapy
▪️ Joint and soft-tissue treatment
▪️ Strength and mobility work
▪️ Movement retraining
▪️ Advice about work, exercise or everyday activity
▪️ A rehabilitation plan that develops as you progress

The balance will be different for every patient.

Hands-on treatment may help reduce pain or improve movement, while rehabilitation helps build the strength, capacity and confidence needed for longer-term progress.

The aim is not to hand you a generic exercise sheet. It is to understand your problem and create a plan that fits your symptoms, goals and daily life.

Diagnose. Treat. Cure.



W5Physio’s follow-up care may include hands-on therapy, targeted exercise, mobility and strength work, movement retraining and rehabilitation.
