Introduction
Hip pain can make everyday activities—walking, sitting, sleeping, or exercising—uncomfortable and frustrating. Many people assume hip pain is simply arthritis or aging, but in many cases, the true source of the problem begins in thepelvis or lower spine.
AtThe Chiro in Pleasant Grove, Utah,Dr. Bruce R. Lowryhelps patients identify the root cause of hip pain and restore proper pelvic alignment through safe, gentle chiropractic care.
The hips and pelvis are closely connected to the lower spine. When the pelvis becomes misaligned—even slightly—it can place uneven pressure on one hip joint. Over time, this imbalance may contribute to:
Deep aching in one hip
Pain when lying on one side
Stiffness when standing after sitting
Pain that radiates into the thigh
Uneven gait or limping
Pelvic misalignment can also affect leg length symmetry, muscle balance, and walking mechanics.
Hip and pelvic imbalance may develop due to:
Prolonged sitting
Poor posture
Old sports injuries
Auto accidents
Pregnancy-related changes
Repetitive movements at work
Without correction, the imbalance may worsen and create chronic discomfort.
Dr. Lowry evaluates the lower spine, pelvis, and hip joints to determine the underlying cause of pain. Chiropractic care can help by:
Restoring proper pelvic alignment
Improving mobility in the hip joints
Reducing nerve irritation from the lower spine
Rebalancing surrounding muscles
Improving posture and gait mechanics
Many patients notice improved comfort when walking, sitting, and sleeping once proper alignment is restored.
Chiropractic care for hip pain is especially helpful for:
Office workers who sit for long hours
Runners and active adults
Seniors experiencing stiffness
Patients recovering from minor injuries
Individuals with recurring lower back and hip pain
Because chiropractic care addresses structural causes, it often provides longer-lasting results compared to symptom-only approaches.
Dr. Lowry is trusted throughout Pleasant Grove, Lindon, and American Fork for his thorough evaluations and conservative approach. His focus is on restoring function and preventing future flare-ups—not just temporary relief.

When the pelvis is aligned, the hips can move the way they were designed to.
