Is Hip or Pelvic Pain Getting in the Way of Your Movement?
Pain or tightness in the hips and pelvis can affect your stride, posture and lower back. It can make walking uncomfortable, reduce mobility, or lead to compensations in other areas. Glenn Strutt works with patients experiencing localised hip or pelvic discomfort to improve movement patterns and reduce restrictions.
Appointments are available at our Cannon Hill Clinic.
How Glenn Supports Hip and Pelvic Function
Glenn begins by assessing how your hips, pelvis, sacrum, and lumbar spine work together. Many issues stem from postural imbalances, muscular tightness or movement dysfunction.
His approach aims to improve the alignment, flexibility and control of your lower body, while reducing pressure on affected joints or soft tissues. Your session includes a tailored Wellness Plan with movement-based strategies and exercises.
