Physiotherapy for Hip and Buttock Pain

Persistent hip pain can make everyday movement frustrating — from walking and stairs to getting in and out of a car. Whether it’s bursitis, a labral tear, or early-stage arthritis, physiotherapy may help improve movement and support your recovery.

 

Emma is a senior musculoskeletal physiotherapist and exercise physiologist with experience in hip and groin rehab. At our Camberwell clinic, she offers evidence-based treatment aimed at supporting function, managing pain, and guiding long-term progress

Frequently Asked Questions

 

It hurts to sleep on my side, what can I do tonight?
Try a pillow between your knees and avoid “hanging” on the sore hip. We’ll set side-lying options that don’t poke the bear.

 

Is walking good or bad for hip pain?
Usually helpful in the right dose. We’ll set distance/pace to your tolerance, then progress.

 

Is this bursitis or gluteal tendinopathy - does it change treatment?
Labels can overlap. The focus is the same: reduce irritability, build tolerance, and strengthen safely.
