Discover the positive path to persistent hip pain relief.
When you understand what movements, positions, or daily activities your brain (subconsciously) is interpreting negatively as it relates to your hip, you can then flip it to your advantage to start getting out of pain.
Minimizing the negative signals and increasing the right positive signals turns off your brain's alarm system which:
✅decreases pain,
✅decreases muscle guarding (tightness)
✅increases muscle activation (turns muscles that are dialed down, usually your glutes, back on).
Of course this is easier said than done.
Simple Action Steps:
1. Make a list of what your positives are in one category (things that make you feel better) and your negatives in another (things that make you feel worse).
2. Rank the top 1-2 in each category.
3. Pick one thing in each category to start with and make an adjustment to it.
One example for increasing positives -- If a certain stretch or self treatment helps, double or triple the amount of times during the day that you do it.
One example for decreasing negatives -- If sitting for extended periods increases your hip pain, set a timer to make sure you get up hourly to move around.
Commit to the changes for at least one week unless they make you feel worse.
4. Be your own scientist. Over the next week, monitor your response. If you feel better, lean in. If you feel any worse, reverse course. If no change, get your list back out and try again,
