Study Summary

This trial will test the effectiveness of a physical therapy protocol for treating hip pain that is not caused by arthritis.

It's not suitable for those under 18 or over 60, anyone who has had hip surgery, speaks no English, suffers from inflammatory conditions or other joint issues that could affect the therapy, takes TNF-alpha inhibitors, has arthritic hip pain (Tonnis grade 2+), radicular back pain, prior knee osteotomy or spinal fusion surgery.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of physical therapy treatments for non-arthritic hip and groin pain. One group will receive a matrix-based physical therapy protocol while the other will undergo standard-of-care physical therapy to see which is more effective in managing their condition.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Physical therapy may cause temporary discomfort or muscle soreness. Since it's a non-invasive treatment, serious side effects are uncommon but can include increased pain if exercises are not performed correctly.
