Introduction to Hip

Physical Therapy in Merrick and Amityville for Hip

Welcome to Summit Physical Therapy's patient resource about hip problems.

A hip injury is nothing to joke about, it is one of the most serious injuries a person can suffer through and one that can lead to long-term health problems if not addressed correctly or inevitably prevented.  Athletes who play active sports like football, soccer, and rugby are more prone to suffering through a hip injury than athletes in other sports, however, hip injuries can also occur by accident, whether through a bad fall or quick and awkward movement.  Therefore, you must know how to take care of yourself so you do not fall victim to this debilitating injury.

This area of our site covers everything you need to be aware of as it relates to your hips and keeping them healthy.

Remember, good health and a little prevention now will protect this sensitive area as you age.  We want to be there with you to proactively protect and prevent against hip injuries.

“ This is the second time I have used Summit Physical Therapy after a hip replacement. I like that it is small owned business. Personal attention is provided and I felt like a person instead of a number. The staff are all very knowledgeable. I would definitely use them again or recommend them to others. ”

“ I have been going to Summit Physical Therapy on and off for 10 years. I wouldn't think about going anywhere else, even with the many other PT offices in the area. All three of the therapists are great. I've seen them all, but you get to decide who you would like to see. His staff is equally great. I'm a Dentist and they treat all the patients as I treated my patients in my practice ”
