At Ortho Solutions and Knee Care Center, we emphasize targeted hip exercise programs to improve strength, flexibility, and joint stability. Hip exercises are essential for patients recovering from injury, surgery, arthritis, or chronic pain. Our physiotherapy team carefully designs individualized routines that enhance mobility, reduce discomfort, and restore balance in daily movement.
Strong hip muscles play a vital role in supporting the spine, knees, and pelvis. Regularly performing guided hip exercises helps prevent lower back and leg pain while improving walking, posture, and overall joint function.
Commonly Recommended Hip Exercises Include:
Glute Bridges – Strengthen hip extensors and stabilize the pelvis.
Clamshells – Activate gluteus medius and improve hip stability.
Hip Flexor Stretch – Increases flexibility and reduces tightness.
Side-Lying Leg Raises – Strengthen abductors and improve balance.
Standing Hip Abductions – Enhance strength and stability around the joint.
Hip Circles – Improve flexibility and joint mobility.
Squats (Partial or Supported) – Build hip and thigh strength safely.
Lunges – Strengthen hip flexors, extensors, and stabilizers.
Fire Hydrant Exercise – Improves gluteal activation and control.
Monster Walks (with Resistance Band) – Boost lateral hip strength and coordination.
