Hip Pain Treatment in Burien, WA
Restoring Mobility and Balance Through CBP® Chiropractic Care
The hip joint is one of the body’s most powerful and complex structures. It combines bones, cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments into a system designed to provide strength, stability, and movement. When even one part of this system is irritated, injured, or misaligned, it can lead to pain, stiffness, and restricted mobility.
Hip dysfunction may develop suddenly from injury or gradually over years of wear and tear. Left untreated, hip pain can alter your posture and gait, increasing strain on your spine, knees, and other joints. At Burien Wellness, we take a conservative approach rooted in Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®) to correct alignment, restore balance, and help you move without pain, because “You Were Born To Be Healthy.”

Common Causes of Hip Pain
Hip pain can stem from many different conditions, including:
- Hip Labral Tears – Deep pain in the groin or hip, often accompanied by a clicking or locking sensation.
- Bursitis – Caused by repetitive motion or prolonged pressure, leading to pain on the outer hip, especially when walking or lying on that side.
- Hip Fractures – Most common in older adults, presenting with severe pain and difficulty bearing weight.
- Arthritis – Osteoarthritis causes stiffness and loss of mobility; rheumatoid arthritis attacks the joint lining.
- Tendinitis – Inflammation of tendons, such as the iliopsoas, creating pain in the front of the hip that worsens with activity.
- Hip Flexor Strain – Common among athletes, especially in sports requiring running or explosive movements.
- Sciatica – Compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve can radiate pain from the hip down the leg, sometimes with numbness or tingling.
By identifying the exact cause, we create a personalized treatment plan to restore function and prevent chronic issues.
How We Treat Hip Pain
Digital X-Rays
When necessary, we use advanced imaging to evaluate the hips, pelvis, and lower spine. X-rays can reveal early and late signs of arthritis, structural imbalances, or nerve root irritation. In many cases, what feels like hip pain may actually originate from the lower back.
Specific Chiropractic Care
Gentle chiropractic adjustments restore balance not only in the hips but also in related joints like the spine, knees, and ankles. By improving alignment and joint motion, we reduce nerve pressure, decrease inflammation, and slow the progression of degenerative changes like arthritis.
Corrective Spinal Traction & Posture Care
CBP® corrective traction helps realign the pelvis and spine, reducing abnormal weight distribution that stresses the hips. Correct posture reduces compensations that often worsen hip pain.
Therapeutic Exercise Plans
Strengthening and stretching surrounding muscles and ligaments is essential for hip stability. Our doctors design customized home exercise programs to improve hip strength, flexibility, and long-term joint health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Chiropractors are musculoskeletal experts trained to identify and correct the root cause of hip pain. We use CBP® to relieve pain, restore mobility, and prevent chronic problems.
Misaligned hips affect the entire body. They can cause low back pain, uneven gait, knee problems, and increase the risk of arthritis. Correcting alignment protects long-term joint health.
Quick fixes may mask symptoms, but lasting relief comes from addressing the underlying cause. A chiropractic evaluation helps identify the source of pain and create a targeted care plan.
While arthritis cannot be reversed, chiropractic care reduces stiffness, improves joint mobility, and slows progression—helping patients stay active and mobile longer.
All pain is your body’s warning system. If your hip pain persists, interferes with daily activity, or radiates into your legs, it’s important to seek an evaluation. Early care prevents worsening damage.
