🌿 Hip pain can come from more places than you think and understanding the cause is key to finding real relief. The latest newsletter from Fairfield Universal Therapy breaks down the most common sources of hip pain, from muscle imbalances and tendon issues to joint conditions and inflammation.

Conditions like bursitis, tendinopathy, and arthritis can all contribute to hip discomfort, often making everyday movements like walking, sitting, or climbing stairs painful.

With the right physical therapy approach, you can target the root cause, improve mobility, and reduce pain so you can get back to moving comfortably and confidently.
