Our goal is to restore mobility, relieve nerve stress, and help you return to walking, standing and moving with confidence again.

Common Causes of Hip & Leg Pain

Hip and leg pain can arise from many sources. Some of the most common underlying issues we evaluate include:

  • Misalignment of the pelvis or hip-joint causing altered movement, load, and pain.
  • Nerve irritation or compression (such as the Sciatica) radiating from the lower back into the hip, thigh or leg.
  • Joint degeneration (arthritis) in the hip itself or in adjacent joints affecting leg pathways. 
  • Muscle imbalances, overuse, or lack of mobility in hip-flexors, glutes, hamstrings or adductors. 
  • Referred pain from the lower back, sacroiliac joint, or lumbar spine that presents as hip or leg aching. 

Understanding the root cause is the first step — because true relief comes when we address why the pain is there, not just suppress symptoms.

How Chiropractic Care Addresses Hip & Leg Pain

At our Olathe chiropractic practice, our treatment plan for hip and leg pain commonly includes:

  • Gentle chiropractic adjustments and mobilizations to improve motion in the spine, pelvis and hip-joint.
  • Soft-tissue work, muscle balancing, stretching protocols for tight hip-flexors, glutes, piriformis and hamstrings. 
  • Posture, gait and movement screening — helping identify how your daily activities, standing or sitting habits may be contributing to hip/leg stress.
  • Targeted home exercises to strengthen supporting muscles, improve hip-range, and protect against recurrence.
  • Ongoing assessment and care coordination when nerve involvement or joint degeneration (arthritic changes) is present.

What You Can Expect at Your First Visit

When you come in for hip or leg pain at our Olathe office:

  • We begin with a full consultation and review of your history: when the pain started, what aggravates it, what alleviates it, your lifestyle, work habits and movement patterns.
  • Next, a physical exam including posture, gait, hip and leg-motion tests, neurologic screening (if radicular leg-pain is suspected), and imaging if needed to clarify joint/nerve involvement.
  • We then provide a “Report of Findings” where we explain what we found, how we believe it’s contributing to your hip/leg pain, and our recommended care plan designed for your goals.
  • Treatment begins – whether that includes an adjustment, mobilization, stretching session or muscle-balance work.
  • You’ll receive at-home instructions (stretches/exercises) and we’ll schedule follow-up visits to monitor progress and adjust accordingly.
