Not all hip pain is the same and understanding where your pain is coming from is the first step toward the right treatment.
Joint-related pain is often felt deep in the hip or groin. You might notice stiffness, clicking, or pain with certain movements like walking, getting in/out of the car or rolling in bed.
Muscle-related pain usually feels sore, tight or tender to touch. It may worsen after activity or exercise and improve with movement, stretching or massage.
Nerve-related pain can feel sharp, burning, tingling or like “electric” pain. It may travel into the buttock, thigh or down the leg and sometimes comes with numbness or weakness.
The tricky part? These can look very similar which is why an individual assessment matters.
If hip pain is slowing you down, make a time to see one of our physiotherapists & we can help identify the source and create a plan tailored just to you.

Feeling sharp, pulling or sudden twinges low in your belly or groin especially when rolling in bed, standing up or walking quickly?
It could be round ligament pain.
Round ligament pain is more commonly seen from the 2nd trimester and is due to your body adapting as your baby grows. It’s usually a short, sharp discomfort often triggered by sudden movement or position changes.
As Women’s health physio’s we can help with movement strategies, support options and exercises to keep you more comfortable throughout pregnancy.

Heading away these holidays and dreading the aches and pains after the long car trip?
Here’s our tips to keep your body feeling fresh!
Move often - Stretch every 30-60 minutes when possible, even if you’re sitting down! If you’re on a plane standing or walking is even better
Support your posture - Using a small towel or jumper to support your lower back can keep your body in better alignment. Try not to slouch!
Change positions - Avoid staying in one posture for long periods, shuffle around if you can
Stay hydrated - Dehydration can contribute to muscle stiffness
Pack smart - Keep heavier bags close to your body when lifting to avoid straining
Happy travelling! 🚗✈️

🚗 As your bump grows, changes in posture, joint laxity and core support can make car transfers uncomfortable, especially for your back and pelvis.
Try to keep both knees together and engage your pelvic floor gently ➡️ swivel both legs out together ➡️ push up through your arms, not your belly.
Take your time, no sudden twists!
These small changes can help reduce pelvic girdle pain, back pain and that sharp “twinge” feeling.
If getting in and out of the car is painful, it’s not something you should just push through, we can help! Make a time to see one of our Women’s Health Physio’s by booking online at hillswomensphysio.com.au or call or email us on 0434 812 616 or info@hillswomensphysio.com.au

Ever wondered what we mean when we ask if your pain is ‘Acute’ or ‘Chronic’?
Acute pain is pain that comes on suddenly, it’s often linked to tissue damage or as a result of an inflammation, injury, strain, or surgery.
Acute pain tends to settle as healing to the tissue occurs (days-weeks recovery time)
Chronic pain is pain that persists longer than expected (3+ months)
This pain is associated to changes in how the nervous system processes pain signals and the pain reflects increased sensitivity rather than ongoing tissue damage.
Understanding the difference helps us to provide you with the right treatment and recovery strategies.
If you’re experiencing pain, it might be worth a visit to one of our physios.
