Hip Pain

Hip pain can affect every step you take—and if left untreated, it can lead to more serious issues with mobility, posture, and long-term joint health.

Whether you’re dealing with pain from overuse, injury, misalignment, or degenerative joint conditions, identifying the root cause of your hip pain is the first step toward lasting relief.

At Regenerative Health Institute in Fishers, we specialize in non-surgical hip pain treatment and comprehensive pain management that targets the source of the problem.

Led by Dr. Derek Smith, our team combines chiropractic care and physical rehabilitation to help patients avoid temporary fixes and long-term medications.

Chiropractic Care for Hip Alignment and Mobility

Many cases of chronic hip pain are linked to misalignments in the spine or pelvis. When these areas are out of alignment, the hips often compensate—resulting in uneven wear, joint stress, and persistent pain.

As an experienced Fishers chiropractor, Dr. Smith uses targeted adjustments to correct these imbalances and restore healthy movement.

Chiropractic care for hip pain may include:

• Adjustments to the lumbar spine, pelvis, or sacroiliac joints
• Joint mobilization to improve hip flexibility
• Postural evaluations and ergonomic corrections
• Coordination with rehab to restore full-body alignment

By correcting alignment and reducing nerve pressure, chiropractic treatments help relieve hip joint pain, improve mobility, and prevent further degeneration.

Physical Rehabilitation for Hip Pain Relief

If you’re experiencing hip stiffness, joint instability, or limited range of motion, you may benefit from our personalized physical rehabilitation program.

Muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, and weakness can all place excess strain on the hip joint—leading to pain and inflammation.

Our rehabilitation services help:

• Strengthen hip and core muscles
• Improve joint stability and alignment
• Enhance flexibility and functional movement
• Reduce strain during walking, sitting, or standing
• Re-train healthy movement patterns for long-term support

Whether you’re recovering from an injury or managing hip pain from arthritis, our team will guide you through a safe, progressive plan tailored to your condition.

Sciatica and Hip Pain

If your pain includes burning, tingling, or radiating pain down the leg, you may be experiencing sciatica—caused by compression or inflammation of the sciatic nerve.

Symptoms of sciatica may include:

• Sharp or shooting pain from the hip down the leg
• Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
• Weakness in the lower extremities
• Pain that worsens when sitting or standing

We treat sciatica and hip pain with a combination of:

• Spinal decompression therapy
• Chiropractic adjustments to the lower spine and pelvis
• Targeted physical therapy
• Targeted rehabilitation for irritated discs and soft tissues

By addressing both the symptoms and root cause of sciatica, we help patients achieve real, lasting hip pain relief.

Shockwave and Red Light Therapy for Selected Hip Problems

If an evaluation suggests that persistent hip-area pain is related to a tendon or nearby soft tissue, shockwave therapy may be considered. Acoustic pulses are directed to the affected area as part of a plan that may also include mobility work, strengthening, and activity changes.

Red light therapy may also complement care for selected minor joint or muscle discomfort and recovery goals. Neither option treats every cause of hip pain, so we first distinguish tendon problems from arthritis, referred back pain, sciatica, or other conditions.

You don’t have to live with hip pain—or settle for surgery. Our comprehensive, drug-free pain relief treatments are designed to help you heal from within—so you can move freely and live without limitation.
