Women's Hip Health

Hip pain can start at any age. Though it’s very common, if you experience any trouble moving your hip or legs, difficulty sleeping on your hip, or if you hear a clicking sound or feel a grinding sensation in your hip (crepitus) then keep reading!

We harbor stress, tension and anxiety in our hips, especially women. Stretching this area can be tense and frustrating but the number one way to improve hip joint health is exercise. Prioritizing daily exercise and stretching with proper form can help you maintain a healthy range of motion in your hips and therefore improve your hip health.

How can barreALLEY help?

“Barre helps build strength in the glutes, which is essential for maintaining joint stability. When you build up more strength in your glutes you will have better pelvic stability. When your joints are more stable, you may experience less hip pain.”
