Walking, stairs and getting up feel harder
Pain or stiffness affects longer walks, hills, stairs, getting out of a chair or stepping out of the car.
A focused assessment and six one-hour rehab sessions for people with hip osteoarthritis who want more confidence with walking, stairs, sleep, exercise and daily life.
Hip osteoarthritis can make people nervous about movement. The answer is not a generic sheet of exercises or being told to stop. It is a plan matched to what your hip can manage now, then progressed as your strength and confidence improve.
Pain or stiffness affects longer walks, hills, stairs, getting out of a chair or stepping out of the car.
First steps after sitting, putting on shoes and socks, turning in bed or walking on uneven ground feel less comfortable.
You want to return to the gym, classes, golf, walking or everyday activity but are unsure what is safe and useful.



Current NICE guidance recommends therapeutic exercise tailored to the person, including local muscle strengthening and general aerobic fitness. Supervised sessions can help you begin at the right level and progress consistently.
We explain the findings in plain language and focus on symptoms and function, not frightening labels.
Progressive exercise develops the muscles and movement confidence needed for everyday loading.
You leave with a realistic routine and clearer decisions for activity, flare-ups and longer-term progress.
This package does not reverse osteoarthritis or guarantee a pain-free hip. Its purpose is to help you manage symptoms, improve function and feel more confident using your hip.
You can ask us first if you are unsure whether this package is appropriate. If it is the right route, the full assessment and supervised rehab are kept together from the start.
We will adapt the plan to your symptoms, health, goals and current ability rather than pushing everyone through the same programme.
Some discomfort can happen when you start. We help you judge what is acceptable, adjust the dose and build consistency without ignoring a significant flare-up.
Not always. Osteoarthritis is often assessed clinically. If your symptoms are unusual or need medical investigation, we will explain the safest next step.
It may be, but it does not replace advice from your GP or orthopaedic team. Ask us before booking if a hip replacement is planned or your symptoms are changing quickly.
A recent significant injury, inability to bear weight, severe rapidly worsening hip pain, or feeling unwell with new hip pain needs medical assessment rather than a package booking.
