There’s a story behind why hip pain is even there in the first place. Additionally, there’s a reason why it hasn’t been getting better with all other treatments you’ve tried. On this call, Dr. Aleka will ask guided questions that help us uncover the truth behind the hip pain and give you clear steps to solve it for good.

If we cannot help you, we will disclose that with full transparency and still provide recommendations for what to do next to best manage hip pain.

1.   Customized Recovery Plan

Based on our assessment, your goals for running, and the root cause, we will implement a plan right away to get your pain levels down and start the journey to running pain-free. The plan will be accessible through a custom app, where you will have guidance and clear instructions for every step of the process.

2.   Ongoing Support

You’ll have direct, day-to-day messaging access and support to Dr. Aleka for guidance and to answer any questions so there’s no second guessing.. and no waiting until your next session for more answers.

3.   Check-ins

You will have priority access to Dr. Aleka’s calendar to schedule 1-on-1 check in calls to assess progress. Most clients find most success with check-ins every 2-3 weeks.

If anything, the plan will be the exact opposite. Most athletes will start running right away, if they’ve been resting. You will be provided with exact instructions to do this safely based on the root cause. That will include:

-   A customized run warm up and cool down

-   Instruction on determining average pace, distance, frequency or type of workout

-   A training/run workout plan based on current goals, races you’re registered for and longevity in running without hip pain constantly roaring back

95% of the individuals who follow the plan, achieve their desired outcomes. Most return to pain-free running.

80% of clients experience major pain reduction within the first 2-3 weeks.

Pain improvement depends on:

-   How complex the root cause is

-   Your commitment to the process

Yes, this plan is designed to be convenient and fit nicely into your lifestyle. We can easily build workouts that you can do at a gym, if that’s your preference, but this can be done at home with a few simple pieces of equipment that we can provide recommendations for:

-   Resistance bands (mini loop and long loop)

-   Foam roller

-   Free weights

Hip pain is often misunderstood. The most common treatments runners report are glute strengthening, core strengthening, dry needling, rest from running, trying new shoes, band work and hip stretches.

However, the root cause is constantly missed and that’s why these treatments and advice fall short. More than 85% of the runners who we help have the lower back as a root cause, with or without low back pain. This is why it is usually missed, because it’s not obvious. However, this is exactly where Dr. Aleka specializes and applies that directly to the demands of a runner.

Complex hip pain is rarely a tight hip muscle, tendonitis or the wrong shoes. That’s why it needs a specific approach to finally address the hip pain at the source and allow a plan to kick in to create meaningful changes. That requires a specialist who knows how to assess and address all contributing factors. That’s exactly how Dr. Aleka has helped even the most complex cases become pain-free.

It is safe to say, what is provided here will certainly be very different than anything you have tried before.

Most runners spend 20-30 minutes a day 5-7 days per week on their custom plan. What they find most valuable is knowing that the time they’re putting in actually leads to results vs hoping and praying it will work this time.

Total duration is anywhere from 2-4 months on average.

For hip pain, most clients find the virtual platform to be an ideal approach for consistent support and individualized planning.

You will receive a daily routine through the custom app, so you’ll always know exactly what to do. This is designed to empower you to know exactly how to move your body rather than relying on passive, hands on treatments.

You’ll be able to see clearly on the exercise videos how to do each exercise that will help bring pain levels down and move you forward. You’ll have clarity on how to complete each task. You’ll have access to a messaging feature so that you can communicate with Dr. Aleka day-to-day, rather than waiting days or weeks to ask questions or adjust the plan based on your latest progress.

The first step is scheduling a free 25-Minute Hip Pain Assessment. During the call we will take a deep dive into your situation and determine what the next best step will be for you to take.

The initial call is free of charge so we can be sure we can help. From there, if it makes sense for us to work together, we have pricing options that fit just about any budget.

This is a high-touch, premium service that insurance would place restrictions on. We choose to not be limited by insurance companies so that you can get the best result possible.

You will be provided with a receipt.
