Hip Pain Treatment in Greenville, SC
Hip Pain Treatment at IHP Greenville — expert acupuncture for chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues. Dr. Hendry, DAOM. Call (864) 365-6156.
Hip pain — from osteoarthritis, bursitis, labral tears, piriformis syndrome, or iliopsoas dysfunction — significantly limits mobility and quality of life. At Integrative Health Partners, Dr. Hendry's hip pain treatment combines acupuncture for joint lubrication and systemic anti-inflammatory effects with dry needling of hip flexors, abductors, and external rotators, and functional medicine assessment for the metabolic and inflammatory factors that accelerate hip joint degeneration.
How Hip Pain Treatment Works
Hip pain treatment uses local hip acupoints (GB30, GB29, GB34, BL54) combined with dry needling of the piriformis, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus, and iliopsoas. These muscles contain trigger points that generate the classic hip pain referral patterns extending to the groin, outer thigh, and knee. Electroacupuncture is added for deep joint inflammation.

Why Dr. Hendry for Hip Pain Treatment
