Arthroscopy
Arthroscopic Surgery is a procedure that allows surgeons to see, diagnose, and treat problems inside a joint. Hip arthroscopy is a surgical procedure that allows doctors to view the hip joint without making a large incision through the skin and other soft tissues. Arthroscopy is used to diagnose and treat a wide range of hip problems. Most arthroscopic procedures have a very short recovery time, and in most cases require no hospital stay.
Joint Replacement
For many patients, having total knee, hip, or shoulder replacement surgery is the best way to get rid of chronic or unbearable joint pain. Over time, osteoarthritis can severely restrict your movement and put a damper on your quality of life. When arthritis gets to this point and conservative treatments don’t help anymore, it’s time to talk to your orthopaedic doctor about joint replacement surgery.

Hip Replacement
Your hip is a ball-and-socket joint, which allows bending and straightening of your body and movement of your lower limbs. The hip is one of the most commonly replaced joints. While osteoarthritis is the main reason for hip replacement surgery, a hip fracture from a fall may also require a hip replacement.
Knee Replacement
The knee is the largest hinge-type joint in the body. Knee problems are common and can occur from injury, wear and tear, or diseases such as arthritis or osteoporosis. For many, knee replacement is the only way to relieve pain, restore function, and improve quality of life.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Your hip joint is designed to withstand repeated motion and wear and tear. Overuse, aging, sports injuries, falls, and infection can all lead to pain and lack of mobility. It is important to realize when hip pain begins, to prevent chronic pain or further damage from occurring.
Physical Therapy
The main goal of physical therapy is to restore your function and mobility, and eliminate or minimize your pain so you can get back to your active lifestyle. People everywhere are experiencing the transformative effect physical therapy can have on their daily lives. In fact, as experts in the way the body moves, physical therapists help people of all ages and abilities reduce pain, improve or restore mobility, and stay active and fit throughout life.

A variety of treatment modalities may be incorporated, such as hot and cold therapy, ultrasound, and manual therapy. Adjustments will be made as needed, based on your progress.
