The walking cane is a must-have.
My hip arthritis problem is so much better since I go swimming and do several tours every week with my dog and the bicycle. In good weather we go daily and cycle to a lake for swimming.
Also I enjoy gardening work.
Hi and greetings from Germany.
You provide such a public service. Thank you, sincerely.
I have mild arthritis in both hips, so carrying out your recommended excercises have really helped. I really want to avoid any hip replacement after my friend ended up with one leg 1 and a 1/2 cm shorter than the other, causing back problems.
Absolutely right on all i was doing was aggravating my hips with the doctor's recommended exercises can't wait to strengthen these abused and neglected muscles.!
Hi! All of those that you show I use to do that I never know that it was wrong for the body! That why I watch all the videos you show because it leading you on the right path for your body! I don’t have hip Arthritis but it still great to know it all I can share it will family and friends what I know! I have knee Arthritis, I do the tailgate swing with my legs I love it and how to walk with my glutes it amazing! Thanks for the advice and tips!And share your videos all the time thanks again!
Wow! This is a real wake up call!
I did 12 weeks of PT Oct 2023 thru Dec 2023 and ended up worst than I started. They had me do the leg raises and you mentioned that we should not do this exercise. Over the weeks they started to put velcro weights on my ankles which got heavier and heavier week after week so I can continue to do leg raises. One day they had me do 10 squats and I walked out of there limping. Another day lunges. After the treatment, I ended up with pain on the side of leg and buttocks. I was then told I may have a back issue. SMH... As far as walking, it doesn't take much for me to get a flair up just walking 1 block so now I've been using a cane. Except now both HIPs started to hurt on some days so I ended up using a walker.
Using two sticks instead of just one can reduce the limping. You can use a walking stick on the other side where you don't need quite as much support.
Every time I listen to your videos I learn more....it all makes sense too!
So, if the bike isn't good (OW!), and walking isn't good - what to do for aerobic exercise? I've been doing walking videos, so, what to do instead? Is Ballet technique ok? Technique means the ballet exercises, not the routines of leaping and twirling, the actual dancing; technique is the ballet exercises, which I also love, but then again, some of the exercises are lifting the leg straight up, to the back, side, etc., which you said not to do, but others aren't, such as Plies, Demi Plies, I don't want to aggravate my hip. How do I get aerobic movement?
best video I have found on this problem. Recommend everyone to watch it before starting physio.
I'm so glad I found your channel. I have been going to PT for many years and no one talked about muscel imbalance. They have shown me so many wrong exercises. I'm trying yours. Thank you!
Thank you, you are the first person I have heard speak on muscle imbalance. I knew my muscles weren't working properly in my arthritic hip but didn't really know what to do about it as most things I was told to do either hurt or made things worse. I felt like I had forgotten how to walk, how to use my leg. Where I live it is virtually impossible to find a physiotherapist who is taking on new patients so your videos are a life line. Thanks also for free content for those that have limited resources. Gratitude.

Thanks for sharing this information make me feel better and I suppose to do hip replacement surgery but with your tips I m better now
Interesting! It appears that many of the yoga poses I’ve done extensively in the past could have contributed to my hip arthritis.
I’m a massage therapist and a yoga teacher - ALL of your compensation habits and aka muscle imbalances follow you everywhere you go - the mechanics of how you use your body is the root cause - very basically NO one should know your body better than you so instead of focusing on what’s wrong we as bodies need to know what balance really is to the best of our abilities starting where we are at now. When yoga teaches from an alignment based focus and energy shifting through use of the breath we have an empowering experience of where perhaps we are going. Body awareness is key. Let’s also teach and learn what balance IS.
You are so knowledgeable and helpful. So happy to view your videos, keep up the great work, please!

Please take care!🧡
Thank you so much!!!! Your videos are very informative
Thank you for helping info. I have viewed your other hip arthritis videos, and I’ve seen some improvement.
Great!
Very helpful. I look forward to your videos each week and I will get a firm diagnosis on what my hip issue is prior to checking out your recovery program. It has been referred to as an impingement and not necessarily arthritis.
PT did all these. Found better information online. You are my hope to walk again. I had a herniated disc shown from a mri. My general doctor referred me to a pain treatment center. Ablation and cortisone shots which were no help. I gave up for a period of time. Finally had spinal surgery which took care of back pain. In the meantime hips locked up lost muscle tone. Pretty much can’t walk. Want to swim but will have to attempt to go myself. Your advice is very helpful right now. Will sign up for your program for hip arthritis. ❤
Hi Doctor. You are exactly right. Great video. I didn't want to use a cane after total hip replacement. I just didn't want to look old and vulnerable. My mistake. I want to address everything you mentioned in your video. I can't thank you enough. You are Awsome, Thank you very much. 🇺🇸 👍 ⭐️
Thx
Thanks!
You are very welcome Paula! We really appreciate your support!
I'm so glad I foun
I love your perspective & wish my pt people would be more interested in my mechanics. I think it's easy to overlook how I'm doing exercises if I seem to be doing them ok. They aren't observing me walking enough to see if there are imbalances, which I think is my issue. I've been going for 4 weeks & I recently have noticed legs feel weaker. My issue is primarily knees. My legs, it band & knees, often more achy when I get up in morning.
Please make a podcast to strengthen the adductors as well abductors when they hurt when exercised.Thank you in advance😊
Thanks for this. Muscle imbalances makes sense.

You are soooo the best. The only channel for knee and hip problems.
Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦🌷🤗
Great video! For me the exercises for muscle imbalance and the cane were crucial. Then the stretches you teach on the videos even though I had to leave them once because I was pushing my self too much. But when I continued they in a lower level they felt very good and I do them every day. I'm really improving month by month. ✌
Hi Adela, That is so awesome to hear! We are thrilled that you've been able to see an improvement month by month. It's so encouraging to hear that you are listening to your body when some of the exercises seemed too intense and that you made adjustments to suit your needs. You are a shining example of what we want our community to do. Listen to your body and advocate for yourself. You are doing an amazing job, Adela! Keep up the great work.🧡🙌 Thank you so much for being part of our community!
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy 😀
Great info as always-have your videos in my playlist "Fix Arthritis". As I watching again, I'm doing the glutt squeezes in my chair & leg wiggles (2 minutes top). I got my Hurry Cane at Walgreens-been using it since end of Dec. 2023. My focus is fixing the muscle imbalance. Have slight knee arthritis, so trying to balance working on both-on same left side. How do I get better sleep? I tried pillow between legs on side & elevating legs while on my back (works sometimes-slept for 5+ hours), normally up & down every 1.5 hrs. Thanks for any suggestions
Can you recommend a few strength training machines from Planet Fitness to use for my hip OA? Thanks!
I have to say when I'm doing leg day at the gym for whatever reason when I do weighted leg extensions it literally makes my hip pan almost disappear for a day??????
My hip pain comes & goes. At times it dissappears for months at a time & for absolutely no reason it reappears & it feels like my hip joint is bloated??
It's weird. I assume it's inflamed.
Aleve helps....
Glad you didn't say indoor cycling and outdoor biking!
Who knows why I have hip arthritis (right side). With very light use of diclofenac I have no pain. Are you saying that my hip arthritis was likely caused by the way I walked, and therefore walking a lot is bad for my hip?
I Don't want to join the cane bridgade😪🤒😪😵
You make so much sense, thank-you!!...wondering if all of this still applies if the arthritis is from hip dysplasia?
I would also like to know this. It doesn't seem like he talks much about hip dysplasia.
@@rubyrattbecause that is just structural and not much can be done. I have that too but have really worked on getting fit, weight loss and stronger glutes. Had total hip replacement.

WOW! Could that happen bc I did really heavy leg extensions and not heavy leg curls? ):
It's like I found my spirit animal in you!! Wish I had come across you a cpl yrs ago. I might not be having the huge muscle imbalance I tell my family is most of my issue. Esp. those front quads..those babies keep me up all night if they fire up and are so very difficult to calm down. So now I'm not only dealing with a funky knee, but my old hip injury from dancing in the wrong type of shoe is telling my 70yr + body deal with it lady!

Thank you so much for your videos, they are very helpful.
How do we size the cane / what length should the cane be in relation to the body?
Can you do a video on proper use of a cane for people with hip arthritis? Also, what at are your thoughts on a hip hook device, to release the iliac & psoas muscle?
Does regular exercise on a Precor AMT 835 open-stride adaptive motion trainer help with building/balancing the proper muscle group to ease hip arthritis, prior to beginning a leg weight training program?
Hi Doctor! Love your video! Just found out that both my hips are 'bone-on-bone,' and being scheduled for hip replacement surgery. Not sure was caused this. I also have osteoarthritis in my lower to mid back plus, spinal stenosis since 1993. Going forward, any suggestions on how to maintain my new hips? I am 60 years old and other than the above health issues plus, needing to lose about 40 lbs., in good health. Thanks for your help and God Bless You and your staff! :>)

What do you think of rowing machines ?
Does driving stick shift (manual transmission) create a stress to hip arthritis/hip flexibility? How can I correct or ease this?
Is riding a bicycle a good exercise or a bad exercise?
Bad. Follow David and look at all of the bone on bone hip arthritis, he says No. 🙂
Hello! I have a question. How will I know when I´ve overcome the muscle imbalances and will be ready to get back to my dumbbells and barbell? I´ve just found you today and don´t know yet how severe my bone on bone hip arthritis is. Thank you in advance.
Just gotta pay $250 and he will show you the way
All the things I did for years, has made my hips tight😢 I was very fit and extremely flexible. Then 4 years ago, I had a slight limp, physio suggested using a cane. Then a friend said to use a walker, to help get in and out of the shower. Well, now I rely on my walker 😢 My legs are not strong anymore, and I was used to being agile. I used to do the splits, stretches, like a gymanist, now what I've learned, this has caused my tight hips. How can I loosen them, and start being normal😢 I was also a lap swimmer, but don't have my pool anymore, and the physio pool was dangerous, getting in and out.
I've started using my arm crutches, hoping this will help.
Great explaining / AND watching, thank you ❗
Over the last year I greatly strengthened my glutes at the gym and my hip arthritis is 98% better
Any suggestions in what equipment you used to strengthen your glutes?
@@deedeew4040 squats ( not super heavy), one legged balance squats and the glute machine at planet fitness. I’ve heard hip thrusts good too. I’m 54 so it took a few months to really build strength but it did work.
Sir i have grade 2 anterior horn lf lateral meniscus what should i do as i am of 23 years can you please help me sir 😢😢
Is using the Tony Little Gazelle Freestyle a good choice to use daily?
Hi Judy, if you can get your glutes to be the main force behind the movement then it should be fine. When you finish your exercise your glutes should be the main muscle group that should feel tired. However, if your hamstrings and glutes are more tired vs. your glutes you could be exacerbating the issue.

Thank you so much, 2 weeks ago, I was down for a hip replacement surgery until I saw your old videos, especially the one about walking clenching your butt.. I will now order a walking cane and follow everything you say 😊
How can someone confirm if you have arthritis in the hip? Other than feeling pain.
I was sent to have x-rays.
