Understanding
Hip Bursitis
The hip contains several fluid-filled sacs called bursae that help reduce friction between muscles, tendons, and bone during movement. When one of these bursae becomes irritated from repetitive stress, prolonged pressure, altered mechanics, or overuse, hip bursitis can develop. Symptoms often include pain along the outside of the hip, tenderness, and discomfort during walking, stairs, or prolonged activity. Physical therapy for hip bursitis in Doylestown, PA at Doylestown Sports Medicine Center focuses on improving hip mobility, reducing mechanical stress, and strengthening the surrounding muscles that support efficient movement.

Accelerate Your Rehabilitation
By Optimizing Tissue Healing at the Cellular Level
Treat the Muscle, Tendon and Ligament at the Cellular Level - Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy uses controlled acoustic waves to target affected tissues and stimulate a healing response. Originally used in orthopaedics and sports medicine, it has shown powerful benefits for those experiencing chronic nerve pain.
Specifically, Shockwave has been proven to help by:
-
Increasing blood flow to damaged nerves
-
Stimulating the release of growth factors and regenerative cells
-
Breaking up fibrotic tissue around nerves that may be contributing to compression
-
Helps reduce chronic inflammation
-
Encourage the body to form new blood vessels, supporting nerve repair
-
Shockwave is a non-invasive, drug-free option with no downtime, and it’s backed by clinical research as an effective method for managing chronic pain conditions.
Treat the Nerve at the Cellular Level - Stimpod
Stimpod NMS460 is one of the most innovative tools available for treating nerve dysfunction – we’re delighted to be able to offer it to our patients! Unlike traditional electrical stimulation, Stimpod uses radio frequency pulsed stimulation to target damaged nerves directly. It works by interrupting dysfunctional pain signals and helping the nervous system “reset.”
How Stimpod Supports Nerve Function:
-
Re-educates peripheral nerves to restore normal signaling
-
Provides rapid relief from tingling, numbness, and burning
-
Improves muscle activation in cases of nerve-related weakness
-
Enhances nerve communication with surrounding muscles and tissues
Many of our clients report noticeable improvements in just a few sessions. It’s a completely pain-free, needle-free therapy – and a safe, effective solution even for those who haven’t responded to other treatments.
