New exciting research is available on surgical outcomes
comparing several techniques. Hip impingement (femoroacetabular impingement,
FAI) is characterized by bony deformities on the femoral head/neck and/or the
acetabulum (hip socket). Some bony lesions may require open hip surgery with dislocation
to address large, global lesions. Many CAM and/or pincer lesions can be addressed arthroscopically. But how much do the outcomes vary depending
on the various techniques used by hip surgeons?
Information on femoroacetabular impingement, hip impingement, FAI, labral tears, hip arthroscopy rehabilitation and more. Research news and reflections for hip impingement patients presented by the author of "The Entrepreneurial Patient: A Patient's Guide to Hip Impingement" - the ONLY comprehensive book that combines research, personal experience and physician interview material on hip impingement in a patient-friendly way.

Physical Therapy / Rehabilitation after Hip Impingement (FAI) Surgery: The Benefit of Neurokinetic Therapy for Muscle Re-Education
A few weeks back, I mentioned I’d be back with a guest
blogger, a physical therapist who uses Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) in his
practice. Here he is. Meet Kristopher Bosch, PT, DPT, ATC, FAAOMPT!
Most rehabilitation and wellness professionals eventually
end up asking themselves: “Why do patients/clients come in with pain, go
through a treatment session, leave pain-free or with significant improvement
noted, and then return the next week with the same symptoms (often times over
and over again)?”
