Is your hip pain really coming from your hip — or is your back the hidden cause?
In this podcast, Stefani Crowley, MSPT, Dip. MDT (McKenzie Institute Diplomate — a credential held by fewer than 1% of physical therapists), breaks down why so many people are treated for hip pain for months or years without ever getting better — because no one checked whether the real source was their spine.
You’ll learn:
✅ The research showing up to 71% of hip pain can actually originate from the spine
✅ A real case study: a patient with a stiff, painful hip for over a year — steroid injections and PRP didn’t help — until we looked at her back instead
✅ Why MRIs and imaging can send you down the wrong path entirely
✅ The specific questions we ask to tell the difference between a true hip problem and a back problem showing up in the hip
✅ Simple ways you can start to figure out, on your own, which one you’re dealing with
If you’ve been told your hip is “just wearing out,” or you’ve tried injections, stretching, or rest and nothing has worked — this podcast may explain why.
