NB: Trochanteric Bursae Pain: Online program (3-27-20)
The program below will involve adding a new movement every other day to assess your body’s response to each one
If any are causing an increase in pain you have the choice to cut that movement out of the sequence or attempt to do it more gently to avoid reproducing pain
Feeling a little discomfort is ok as long as the discomfort goes away within 24 hours and is not severe
Day 1: Quad Flexibility: Try the options below and choose the one that gives you the best stretch without significant pain
This one works well and doesn’t have much risk as far as putting pressure on the hip
Sometimes I have the person bring the knee that is up on the couch to their chest and hold it there with their hands while the other leg is on the floor
Hold each for 5 sec then up on the toe for 5 sec to reduce the stretch
