How to Identify Hip Bursitis and the AMIT Solution

Hip bursitis is a painful condition that affects the small fluid-filled pads, called bursae, which act as cushions between bones, tendons, and muscles near the joints. When these bursae become inflamed, hip bursitis can develop, causing pain and reduced mobility.

Causes of Hip Bursitis

Hip bursitis is often caused by repetitive motions or positions that irritate the bursae around the hip joint. Common causes include:

  • Overuse or Repetitive Stress: Activities such as running, cycling, or standing for long periods.
  • Direct Trauma: A fall or direct blow to the hip area.
  • Poor Posture: Misalignment of the body can place additional stress on the hips.
  • Underlying Conditions: Conditions like osteoarthritis can also contribute to hip bursitis.

Symptoms of Hip Bursitis

The most common symptoms of hip bursitis include:

  • Pain and Stiffness: An achy feeling in the hip that worsens with movement or pressure.
  • Swelling and Redness: The hip may appear swollen or red, especially after prolonged activity.
  • Tenderness: Pain is usually felt on the outside of the hip.

AMIT Treatment for Hip Bursitis

What Happens During Hip Bursitis?

Hip bursitis occurs when muscles surrounding the hip joint become inhibited due to trauma or overuse, leading to inflammation in the bursa. Inhibited muscles fail to support the hip joint properly, causing excessive stress and motion limitations. Over time, this can lead to degenerative changes, including arthritis, if the condition is not properly treated.

How Does AMIT Help?

Advanced Muscle Integration Technique (AMIT) is designed to reactivate inhibited muscles around the hip joint, helping to reduce inflammation and restore joint stability. By addressing the root cause of muscle inhibition, AMIT can help prevent the progression of hip bursitis into osteoarthritis. The technique also aids in reestablishing proper muscle function, reducing pain, and improving mobility.

Steps to Take If You Have Hip Bursitis

  1. Rest and Modify Activity: Avoid activities that aggravate the hip joint.
  2. Consult a Specialist: At AMIT, we specialize in treating hip injuries using our proprietary muscle activation method. Contact us today to schedule a consultation.
  3. Don’t Take Anti-Inflammatories: Inflammation is necessary to heal. Antiinflammatories like ibuprofen, Motrin, and cortisone injections slow down the healing process.
  4. Rehabilitation: After AMIT treatment, our team will guide you through exercises to strengthen and improve the flexibility of the hip muscles, enhancing recovery and preventing recurrence.

Why Choose AMIT for Hip Bursitis?

  • Non-Invasive Treatment: AMIT is a non-surgical approach to managing hip pain.
  • Prevent Arthritis: By reactivating inhibited muscles, AMIT reduces stress on the hip joint, preventing degenerative conditions such as arthritis.
  • Improve Function and Mobility: AMIT restores joint stability and improves muscle function for long-term relief.
