Do chiropractors work on hips?

While it is common to turn to chiropractic care when feeling back and neck pain, chiropractors work on hips too. A chiropractor will define if the hip joint or other joints are out of alignment. After that, a doctor will determine the type of misalignment and come up with the optimal treatment plan. Correcting the misalignments through chiropractic adjustments will improve your movement and function. 

Fixing these misalignments is extremely important. Otherwise, the issues will keep on accumulating, with you feeling worse and causing your problem to take longer to correct.

Common Conditions We See Involving the Hip:

Misaligned Hips​

Chiropractors can correct any misaligned joints in the body, and the hips are no exception.
