Yes it is.
Acupuncture is effective for not only treatment of pain and management of pain in the hips, but also is also wonderful for preventative care for healthy aging.
Yes, unless itnis bone-on-bone. Then, surgery may be required but you'd have to consult your Primary Care Physician
Acupuncture is extremely effective for hip pain. I suggest that you contact your family doctor to eliminate certain causes of hip pain, i.e. tumor, cancer, disc herniation, then consult with your acupuncturist.
Every case and every patient is different, so nothing is a guarantee. However, I have helped numerous patients reduce and eliminate their hip pain. I hope this was helpful!
yes! especially when we add electrical stimulation to the acupuncture needles. Not only can the needles reach into the capsule space to stimulate synovial fluid creation, but traverses many layers of muscles on the way down to aid in their relaxation and recalibration.
Yes, acupuncture is effective for bursitis, tendonitis, bruises , sprain, and strain of the hip joints,
Yes. I currently have patients with hip pain who are improving with acupuncture treatments. - Live Happy, Michael

We will exam 1st. Then provide dry needling 1st. Patients will find instant results in general.
Depending on patients’ medical histories and conditions, each patient will have different responses. Patients will have to follow up in 3-7days depending on severity.
Patients will be examined again on how much difference they have experienced since the initial acupuncture treatment.
Then we can give patients a plan for symptomatology.
If we find limitations in improvements, we will apply different plans as a holistic approach.

Yes. If your hip pain is chronic, you will need multiple sessions per week for a period of time. Then you can decrease sessions to once a week once it is under control. You need a private consultation to discuss your pain issue.
Yes absolutely
Yes acupuncture can be very effective for hip pain.
Yes. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Yes!, hip pain can be caused by several conditions. Bursitis in the trochanter of the Femur or hip joint, Sacroiliac joint dysfunction, Sciatic pain, etc.
Absolutely, acupuncture therapy has a considerable effect, has a high technical content, can trigger nerve reactions, activate its defense system function, and the patient's muscle tone is reduced, and finally achieve pain reduction. The hip reflexology points are located behind and underneath the outer ankle bones (also known as the lateral malleoli, which are the distal ends of your fibulas) on both ankles. The right side corresponds to your right hip and the left side corresponds to your left hip.
It is very good for hip pain either by treating points on the scalp, ear, hand, feet, or local points.
Yes, acupuncture is effective for hip pain.
It really depends on what is causing your hip pain, but most of the time, acupuncture can help alleviate hip pain. It's tougher if you're dealing with bone-on-bone, but otherwise, it can be very helpful.
It depends on what's causing the hip pain. If this is something along the lines of a muscle pull or strain of connective tissue, bursitis, mild osteoarthritis or something affecting the myofascial chain that crosses the hip then, yes, acupuncture can probably help.
If the pain is due to severe osteoarthritic joint degradation or avascular necrosis of the hip then, no, acupuncture isn't going to be particularly useful.
If you aren't sure what's causing the pain, start with your primary care and get some imaging done. Any decent acupuncturist is going to want to see radiology results at some point anyway.
