Who This Is For
High Performance Is Your Standard. But Your Hip Is Holding You Back.
You move with purpose. You train with discipline. You lead from the front.
But now, every step, every lunge, every stride comes with resistance.
You Feel:
- That deep ache when you sit too long.
- The pinching that shows up when you squat, climb stairs, or rotate.
- The stiffness that limits your power, flow, and control.
This isn’t just “getting older.” It’s a breakdown in performance.
We Help People Who:
- Are dealing with hip pain that’s limiting mobility, training, or daily function.
- Were told to “stretch more,” take painkillers, or “wait until it’s bad enough for surgery.”
- Tried massage, cortisone, or rehab—but still feel stuck.
- Refuse to settle for joint deterioration or age-based decline.
- Expect their body to match their ambition—in the gym, on the course, or at work.
Whether it’s Gluteal Tendinopathy, Hip Bursitis, Labral Tears, or Early Hip Arthritis, you’re no longer moving the way you want to.
You can’t hinge deep.
You can’t run, lunge, or rotate without restriction.
Golf, strength training, cycling, and even long drives feel compromised.
If you’re ready to reclaim your stride, mobility, and performance, this is for you.
Why Does Hip Pain Happen?
As we age past 35, the ligaments and tendons supporting the hip begin to lose elasticity and shock absorption, especially under repetitive strain. This hidden instability increases stress on the joint cartilage and surrounding soft tissues during walking, sitting, lifting, or training.
What starts as tightness or minor discomfort can evolve into pain, stiffness, or mechanical clicking. The true cause is often soft tissue overload, joint misalignment, or labral irritation, not just aging. Left unaddressed, these issues can lead to degeneration and reduced mobility.
Conditions We Treat at Our Hip Pain Clinic in Oakville
Achieve lasting relief and peak performance with evidence-based regenerative treatments for hip pain, delivered with personalized, high-level care at our Oakville shoulder clinic.
Hip Bursitis
Outer hip pain from inflammation of the trochanteric bursa, often triggered by prolonged pressure, overuse, or poor walking mechanics during daily activity or exercise. We treat bursitis by restoring muscular balance and reducing inflammation naturally, avoiding cortisone injections that weaken tissue over time.
Gluteal Tendinopathy
Side hip pain and weakness from degeneration or overload of the gluteus medius and minimus tendons, common in women and often triggered by climbing stairs, prolonged standing, or lateral movement. We use regenerative therapy and movement correction to rebuild tendon integrity and relieve pressure on the area without long-term rest or bracing.
Hip Labral Tears
Deep pain in the groin and hip area with clicking or catching, often triggered by twisting, squatting, or repetitive rotation that damages the cartilage ring (labrum) surrounding the hip socket. Many clients report sudden hip pain without injury. We treat labral tears non-surgically using guided regenerative injections and biomechanical rehab to reduce friction, support healing, and restore joint function.
Hip Osteoarthritis
Stiffness and joint pain from gradual cartilage wear in the hip, often triggered by years of repetitive strain, old injuries, or poor joint alignment, leading to early joint degeneration. We slow degeneration, protect cartilage, and reduce pain using regenerative therapy and mobility optimization without relying on medications or joint replacement.
Advanced Modalities We Use To Treat Hip Pain Injuries
Hip pain can hold you back from playing sports to enjoying hobbies, or handling everyday tasks at home or work. Our regenerative treatments are designed to help you move freely and get back to what you enjoy.
Shockwave Therapy
Clinically shown to reduce chronic tendon pain, shockwave therapy is used first at Peak Health VIP to break down scar tissue and prime the area for regenerative treatment.
Hyaluronic Acid Injection
Peak Health VIP combines HA with pre-treatment shockwave or prolotherapy to boost absorption, extend relief, and enhance joint lubrication in active patients.
Nerve Entrapment Release (PIT)
Peak Health VIP relieves nerve pain, tingling, or weakness following a hip injury by releasing compressed nerves for faster recovery.
Prolotherapy
Strengthens loose or damaged ligaments, especially after sprains. Peak Health VIP combines it with shockwave for stronger joint stability and faster healing.
Platelet-Rich Plasma
Our PRP delivers 15–18 billion platelets per treatment, over triple the volume of standard kits for joint pain, tendon tears, cartilage, and meniscus injuries.
Ultrasound
Peak Health VIP uses dynamic ultrasound imaging to stress-test ligaments and tendons during movement, not just static scans like most clinics rely on.
Supplementation
Targeted supplements support recovery, inflammation control, and tissue repair, personalized based on your lab results and injury type for optimal outcomes.

Top FAQs – Hip Pain
Why does my hip hurt when I walk, squat, or stand up from a chair?
This type of pain is often related to gluteal tendinopathy, hip joint impingement, or early arthritis. These symptoms often reflect deeper instability that can worsen if ignored.
Is this hip pain coming from the joint, tendon, or my back?
Hip pain can be misleading. It may stem from the hip joint itself or be referred from the lower back, SI joint, or surrounding tendons, often presenting as lower back and hip pain. A proper assessment can determine exactly where the problem starts so it can be treated effectively.
Why does my hip feel stiff after sitting or first thing in the morning?
Stiffness and hip pain from sitting are red flags for joint inflammation or early-stage arthritis. Many people begin to notice this around age 40. Early action can prevent long-term mobility loss.
Can hip arthritis start in my 40s or 50s?
Yes, especially in people who’ve had sports injuries, repetitive strain, or poor movement mechanics. Even without a major injury, low-grade inflammation and cartilage thinning can build up over time. At Peak Health VIP, we work with clients to slow joint degeneration using regenerative therapy and mobility restoration—before it becomes irreversible.
Why does the outside of my hip hurt when I lie on it or climb stairs?
Pain on the side of the hip is often caused by gluteal tendinopathy or bursitis. It can worsen with repetitive pressure or stair climbing, and is especially common in women over 40.
What is hip impingement, and how do I know if I have it?
Hip impingement (FAI) happens when the ball of the hip pinches against the socket during movement. It can cause pain in the groin and hip area when sitting, squatting, or rotating the leg.
Why do I feel tightness or clicking in my hip when I move?
Clicking or snapping in the hip may result from tendon tension, labral irritation, or hip capsule stiffness. If treated early, these can usually be addressed without surgery. Our Oakville-based clinic uses real-time ultrasound and biomechanical testing to uncover these movement restrictions and apply targeted therapy.
Can I still work while I am getting the treatments?
Often, yes. Most clients don’t need to stop working. With guided rehab and movement modifications, you can stay active while healing properly.
Is cortisone effective for hip pain long-term?
It may reduce pain temporarily, but cortisone doesn’t repair tissue or stop joint breakdown. In fact, over time, it can weaken soft tissue.
What’s the best treatment for hip injuries over 35 in the GTA?
The most effective approach includes proper diagnosis, regenerative injections like PRP, and functional movement retraining, which includes stretches for hip pain and targeted hip pain exercises. That’s exactly what we focus on at Peak Health VIP, helping our clients reduce inflammation, restore strength, and stay out of the surgical system.
Do I need a hip replacement if I have early arthritis?
Not necessarily. Many people are told to “wait until it’s bad enough for surgery.” We help Oakville and GTA clients take a different path by preserving joint function and slowing arthritis progression with regenerative, non-invasive care.
When should I see a hip specialist in Oakville or the GTA?
If your hip pain is affecting your walking, workouts, or sleep, it’s time. The earlier the issue is identified, the faster and more naturally it can be resolved.
