Hip Pain Therapy in Chicago, IL

Enjoying Chicago’s vibrant city life—from lakeside strolls to cheering at Soldier Field—supported by personalized hip pain therapy at Athletico Physical Therapy - Prudential Building, helping residents overcome discomfort and stay active in every season.

Living in Chicago means embracing the energy of the city—whether you’re strolling along the Lakefront Trail, braving the brisk winds during winter, or cheering on your favorite team at Soldier Field. But when hip pain gets in the way, even the small joys of city life—like climbing the “L” steps or joining friends for a walk in Millennium Park—can feel daunting. At Athletico Physical Therapy – Prudential Building, we understand how much you value your mobility and independence. Our Hip Pain Therapy is designed to help you overcome discomfort and regain your stride, no matter what Chicago’s seasons bring.

Why Hip Pain Happens—and Why It’s So Common in Chicago

Chicagoans are always on the move, from navigating slick sidewalks in the winter to tackling outdoor runs along the lake in summer. This active lifestyle, while invigorating, can sometimes lead to hip pain—whether it’s a nagging ache that comes with daily wear and tear, tightness from sitting in traffic, or a sharp twinge during your favorite workout. Common causes include overuse injuries, hip bursitis, IT band hip pain, and joint pain from arthritis or previous joint replacement rehab needs. If you’ve noticed hip pain while running, unexplained stiffness after sitting through a Bulls game, or difficulty with stairs, you’re not alone—and help is closer than you think.

What to Expect from Hip Pain Therapy

Our approach to hip physical therapy is all about helping you return to the activities you love, pain-free. We start by listening to your story and understanding how hip pain is affecting your daily life here in Chicago. Your personalized plan may include targeted exercises, gentle stretching (including IT band stretches for hip pain), manual therapy, and functional training that fits your lifestyle.

Conditions We Commonly Address

Hip pain can stem from a variety of causes. Some of the most common issues we help with include:
