What is hip pain?
Hip pain is often described as a dull, aching sensation around the hip area. The discomfort can sometimes radiate down into the upper leg or knee. When hip degeneration is involved, the pain often feels sharper and is usually felt in the groin
A hip injury
We talk about a hip injury if your hip pain started suddenly, for example during sport or a weird movement. It may seem as though the movement itself caused the problem, but in many cases, there’s already an underlying issue that has been building up over time and has now come to the surface. To truly recover from a hip injury, it’s important to address the root cause. Chiropractic care helps by improving the function of your spine, pelvis and nervous system, allowing your body to heal naturally from within.
Causes of hip pain
There are several possible causes of hip pain, and in many cases, pelvic instability plays a key role. When the pelvis isn’t stable, it places extra strain on the hips, which can lead to ongoing pain and tension. Hip wear and tear or lower back issues can also contribute to discomfort in the hips. Because these areas are so closely connected, an imbalance in one often affects the function of the others.
Symptoms of hip problems and hip pain
The symptoms of hip problems and hip pain are usually felt around the hip area. It often feels like a dull ache in the hip, buttock, or upper leg. The pain can also be sharp and radiate into the groin. Because of these symptoms, standing up from a chair or walking can become difficult.
Where you can feel hip pain:
- Pain in the hip and lower back
- Hip pain radiating into the leg
- Groin pain related to the hip
- Pain in the groin, hip, and lower back
- Outer hip pain
- Left hip pain
- Hip and back pain
- Anterior hip pain
- Posterior hip pain
Common hip problems we see:

- Hip pain when sitting
- Hip pain after exercise
Start of the treatment for hip problems and pain: a hip examination
We begin your treatment for hip problems and pain with a thorough hip assessment to find out exactly where your problems are coming from. During this assessment, we check the mobility of your hip, the stability of your pelvis, and the function of your knees and ankles. We also perform a posture analysis and look for any tension in your spine. Based on this, we create a personalised care plan tailored to your body.
Our hip pain treatment
The goal of your hip pain treatment is to help you fully heal from your discomfort. We do this by gently releasing tension in your spine through precise, targeted adjustments. This improves your posture and reduces pressure on your hips, while also enhancing the function of your nervous system. Your brain and body begin to communicate more clearly again, allowing your body to heal naturally from within and giving your hips the chance to heal.
The result: more than just hip pain relief
Many people look for hip pain relief when they have hip problems, but chiropractic care offers much more than that. It provides a real solution to the underlying cause of your discomfort and other health issues. Rather than masking the pain, we address what’s really causing it. As a result, you not only recover from your hip pain but often notice improvements in your overall health and energy as well.
When should you see a chiropractor for hip pain?
If you’re dealing with hip pain, visiting a chiropractor is a great choice. In many cases, the discomfort comes from an underlying issue in the spine or pelvis. By addressing this deeper problem, your body gets the chance to heal naturally. You’ll start to feel fitter, more energised, and able to move freely again without pain.
Physiotherapy for hip pain or chiropractic care?
If you’re experiencing hip pain, both physiotherapy and chiropractic care can help, but they focus on different things. Physiotherapy mainly works on the muscles, joints, and movement patterns. It can be very effective when the pain comes from muscle tension or imbalance, helping to strengthen the muscles and improve how you move.
Chiropractic care looks a little deeper. In addition to the muscles and joints, chiropractors focus on how the spine and nervous system are functioning as a whole. Often, the real cause of hip pain lies in the pelvis or lower spine. By improving function in these areas, chiropractic care helps improve posture, reduce pressure on the hips, and restore the body’s ability to heal naturally from within.

Many people notice their hip pain easing quickly, along with better posture, greater mobility, and a boost in confidence and energy.

Most insurers reimburse chiropractic care under complementary or alternative care in the extras insurance package (aanvullende verzekering). Check your policy to see what your coverage includes, or click here to view the coverage of your insurance company.

During your first appointment, we take the time to understand your health concerns and create a personalised care plan. This initial visit usually lasts around 30-45 minutes. Once we know what your body needs, the follow-up visits are shorter and more focused. You’ll first have a moment to relax on the table before the chiropractor begins the adjustments. These adjustments give your body exactly what it needs to support the self-healing process. So even though each session only lasts at most about 10 minutes, the healing process continues long after you leave the practice.
Yes, chiropractic care is very safe when performed by a qualified chiropractor. At Solar, every adjustment is delivered with precision, presence, and respect for your body’s natural rhythms. We don’t force or manipulate, we work with your body to help it find balance again. Research shows that chiropractic care is among the safest forms of healthcare available, and is far safer than common medications like ibuprofen. Our approach is gentle, specific, and focused on restoring proper function to your spine and nervous system. Most people experience chiropractic as deeply relaxing and even restorative, a way to reconnect with their body and support its innate capacity to heal and thrive.

What to expect
Your first visit
We’ll take the time to get to know you and explore how we can best support your health and healing. This comprehensive consultation includes a holistic health questionnaire, physical examination, posture scans, and a personal conversation about your health goals. If we determine that we can help you, you’ll receive a gentle chiropractic adjustment tailored to your body’s needs.
Intensive phase
In this stage, we focus on restoring balance in your spine and nervous system through precise, effective adjustments. The sessions are short yet powerful. Repetition is key as it helps teach your brain new, healthier neurological patterns. During this phase, we usually see you twice per week.
Stabilisation phase
Your body begins to adapt to its new balance. Muscles, discs, ligaments, and connective tissues get the chance to heal and strengthen. This will help prevent your body from slipping back into old, protective patterns. To support this process, adjustments are usually scheduled once per week.
Wellness care
We continue to support your health for as long as you feel it is best serving you. Just like eating well, moving your body, and giving yourself time to rest, regular chiropractic care is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Together, we’ll decide the rhythm that works best for you and your goals.
Even more insurers reimburse chiropractic care through their supplementary insurance. Want to know what your insurer covers? Check your insurer’s coverage.
