Hip dysplasia affects the way the hip joint forms and functions, leading to instability, discomfort, and reduced mobility. Whether diagnosed in adulthood or following corrective surgery, physiotherapy plays a crucial role in managing symptoms, improving strength, and preventing further joint problems.
At Home Physio Group, we provide expert, one-to-one physiotherapy in the comfort of your home, helping you move more freely and confidently while protecting your hip joint for the long term.
Understanding Hip Dysplasia
Hip dysplasia occurs when the hip socket does not properly cover the ball portion of the thigh bone. This can cause uneven pressure in the joint, leading to pain, weakness, and, over time, an increased risk of arthritis or injury.
While some cases are identified in childhood, many adults live with undiagnosed or mild hip dysplasia until pain or mobility issues arise. Surgery may be required in more severe cases, but physiotherapy remains essential both before and after any surgical intervention.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physiotherapy for hip dysplasia focuses on improving joint stability, restoring strength, and ensuring healthy movement patterns. Your Home Physio Group physiotherapist will design a personalised plan to meet your needs and support long-term joint health.
Physiotherapy can help by:
- Strengthening the muscles surrounding the hip and pelvis for greater joint support
- Improving posture, balance, and gait to reduce strain on the joint
- Enhancing mobility and flexibility for smoother, pain-free movement
- Managing pain and inflammation through gentle exercises and manual therapy
- Supporting post-surgical recovery and helping you return to everyday activities safely

Your Recovery Journey
Your Home Physio Group physiotherapist will begin by assessing your movement, strength, and pain levels to understand how hip dysplasia affects your daily life. From there, they will create a progressive programme to help you recover and strengthen safely.
1. Early Phase – Pain Relief and Gentle Mobility
The focus is on reducing pain, improving joint range of motion, and teaching you how to move efficiently without putting stress on the hip.
2. Strengthening and Stability
You’ll work on targeted exercises to build the hip and core muscles, improving stability and balance while protecting the joint.
