How to Identify Hip Dysplasia and the AMIT Solution
Hip dysplasia occurs when the hip socket does not fully cover the ball portion of the upper thighbone, causing the joint to be misaligned. While many people are born with hip dysplasia, symptoms may not appear until later in life, and without treatment, this condition can lead to chronic pain and hip dislocation.

Causes of Hip Dysplasia
Hip dysplasia is often a congenital condition, meaning it is present at birth. However, many individuals don’t experience symptoms until adulthood, when physical activity or wear and tear on the joint begins to cause pain. Common factors include:
- Congenital Hip Dysplasia: A condition where the hip socket does not develop properly in infancy, leading to a shallow socket.
- Wear and Tear: Over time, the misalignment can cause excessive stress on the hip joint, leading to degeneration.
- Family History: Genetics can play a role in the development of hip dysplasia.
- High-Impact Activities: Sports or activities that put stress on the hip joint can aggravate the condition, especially in individuals with undiagnosed hip dysplasia.
Symptoms of Hip Dysplasia
Common signs and symptoms of hip dysplasia include:
- Groin Pain: Deep pain felt in the front of the groin area, often triggered by physical activity or prolonged sitting.
- Hip Pain: Discomfort or aching in the side or back of the hip.
- Limping: A mild limp may develop as the condition worsens, often due to the hip joint’s instability.
- Joint Stiffness: Limited range of motion in the hip, making it difficult to perform daily activities like bending, walking, or squatting.
AMIT Treatment for Hip Dysplasia
What Happens During Hip Dysplasia?
In cases of hip dysplasia, the hip joint is not fully aligned, leading to instability, pain, and potentially, dislocation. Over time, the muscles surrounding the joint may become inhibited and fail to function properly, which exacerbates the problem. As the muscles weaken, they are no longer able to compensate for the misalignment of the hip, leading to increased joint wear and tear.
How Does AMIT Help?
The Advanced Muscle Integration Technique (AMIT) addresses hip dysplasia by focusing on muscle reactivation and joint manipulation. AMIT helps re-establish proper muscle
function around the hip joint, supporting stability and reducing pain. By reactivating the inhibited muscles, AMIT allows the body to compensate for the misaligned hip socket, delaying the need for surgical intervention. This method also aids in correcting minor dislocations through hip manipulation, restoring joint function.
Early intervention with AMIT can greatly prolong the need for surgery, providing longterm relief and improving quality of life.
Steps to Take If You Have Hip Dysplasia
