Want to get to the root cause of snapping hip syndrome? Maybe you’re considering surgery but aren’t sure if it’s really necessary?
Coach E and Dr. B discuss the root causes behind snapping hips or iliopsoas tendonitis before diving into 4 exercises that will address the root cause. (Hint: it’s not surgery!)
Today they’re focusing on the internal category of hip snapping, where the iliopsoas skips over the bone in your pelvis, causing you to feel that clunk.
Coach E also demonstrates the Thomas Test. this will show you if you have work to do lengthening your psoas. Shortened or tight iliopsoas muscles tend to be common in people who sit much of the day and women after childbirth.
Next, they’ll show you four easy, at-home exercises to improve control over your psoas and increase the length to get rid of snapping hip syndrome for good.
And don’t forget to stop stretching your hip flexors in the interim.
