HIP PAIN CHIROPRACTOR IN OVERLAND PARK, KS
Hip Pain Treatment
Pinching in the front of the hip, aching on the outside, or a hip that hates sitting and squatting. We find the source and rebuild the strength around it.
What Is Hip Pain?
The hip is a large, weight-bearing joint that plays a central role in nearly every movement you make. Hip pain can come from the joint itself, the surrounding muscles and tendons, or even the lower back, and it may show up in the groin, the outside of the hip, or the buttock.
The underlying cause can vary from person to person and may involve joint restriction, tendon irritation, bursitis, muscle tightness, or age-related changes in the joint. While symptoms can range from occasional stiffness to pain that limits daily activity, effective treatment begins with identifying the source of the problem instead of simply masking the pain. A comprehensive evaluation helps determine what is contributing to your symptoms and guides the most appropriate course of care.
At Rebuild Chiropractic, we focus on restoring healthy movement, reducing stress on the hip joint, and helping your body heal naturally. Our goal is not only to relieve your current symptoms but also to improve function and reduce the likelihood of future flare-ups.

What Causes Hip Pain?
Hip pain can develop for several reasons. Identifying the underlying cause is essential for creating the most effective treatment plan.
Joint Restriction
Limited movement in the hip or pelvis can lead to irritation and compensation elsewhere.
Tendon Irritation
Overloaded tendons around the hip can become painful with activity.
Muscle Tightness
Tight hip flexors and glutes can alter mechanics and place stress on the joint.
Degenerative Changes
Age-related wear in the hip joint can cause stiffness and discomfort.
It develops when the hip joint or its surrounding muscles and tendons become irritated, restricted, or overloaded. The result can be pain and stiffness that affect walking, standing, and sleep.
How We Treat Hip Pain
Instead of masking symptoms, we focus on restoring healthy movement and rebuilding tolerance for load — one-on-one with Dr. Luke Bergner, DC, at our Overland Park office.
Free consultation
A short call about what hurts, how long it's been going on, and what you've already tried. Free, no obligation. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you and point you somewhere better.
What you leave with: an honest answer on whether we can help.
Comprehensive evaluation
Full history plus movement, orthopedic and strength testing — because where it hurts is rarely where the problem started. You get the findings and your first treatment on the same visit.
What you leave with: a diagnosis, a plan, and treatment the same day.
A plan you can actually follow
Hands-on care to get you moving now, progressive loading so it holds. Built around your sport, your job and the hours you actually have — not a generic protocol.
What you leave with: exercises that fit your week, not someone else's.
Coaching between visits
Recovery doesn't only happen in the office. Every exercise comes with video in a private coaching app, and we adjust it as your symptoms and schedule change. Message us when you're stuck.
What you leave with: no guessing between appointments.
Build strength so it stays fixed
Most care stops when the pain does. We keep going until the area is stronger than it was before, so the same flare-up doesn't show up again next season.
What you leave with: a body that holds up without us.

Dr. Luke Bergner is a fantastic coach and guide. I can’t say enough good things about his approach. He truly listens, educates, and tailors his input and exercises to meet me where I am, while encouraging me to challenge myself. He builds confidence and strength! He’s thoughtful, flexible, encouraging, and thorough. I have autoimmune symptoms that were causing pain and limiting my lifestyle. Dr. Luke asked questions, learned, and provided me with options so that I could adapt to my symptoms day by day and still move forward. I’m grateful and glad that I went to see Dr. Luke!

I am very pleased with the results I got from my experience working with Dr. Luke on some back/hip issues. I was leery with his different approach to address my discomfort but his treatment really does seek to rebuild you and give you a long-term fix. He is extremely flexible and worked around some crazy travel plans I had during our time together to make sure I still got the results I wanted. I cannot recommend enough at least taking a phone call with him to discuss any long-term, lingering pain issues you might have to see if you'd be a good fit for one of his programs.

I went to see Dr. Luke at the recommendation of my sister to see about some SI Joint pain that was limiting my strength and mobility. This was about two weeks from a CrossFit competition, and I didn’t know if I was going to be able to compete as well as I knew I could. Within those two weeks, Dr. Luke worked with me to regain my strength and mobility so that I was able to compete and compete well. I would recommend him to anyone not only because of his expertise, but also his determination to keep people moving and to keep them doing what it is they enjoying doing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Hip pain usually involves some combination of joint restriction, tendon irritation, and muscle imbalance, and all of these respond to conservative care. We treat the hip alongside the pelvis and lower back, since they work as one system.
Pain in the groin usually points to the hip joint itself, while pain in the buttock can come from either. A physical exam sorts this out quickly, which matters because the treatment differs.
A pinch in the front of the hip usually means the joint is running out of comfortable room, from stiffness, positioning, or how you are built. Adjusting stance and depth, improving hip mobility, and strengthening around the joint usually clears it.
Not necessarily. Tendons, bursae, and tight muscles cause plenty of hip pain in people with healthy joints. And even when arthritis is present, mobility and strength work reliably reduce pain and improve function.
Usually yes, with some short-term adjustments to volume and intensity. Both sports demand quick rotation from the hips, so our job is to restore the mobility and strength that lets you play without paying for it the next day.
Night pain on the outside of the hip usually points to irritated gluteal tendons or the bursa that sits over them. A pillow between the knees helps short term, and targeted loading of those tendons fixes it long term.
Not usually to begin care. If your exam suggests significant joint wear or your progress does not match expectations, we will refer you for imaging.
Yes. When the hips do not move well, the lower back and knees pick up the slack, which is why hip restriction so often shows up as pain above or below it.
Most hip pain never gets close to surgery. If your joint is severely worn and conservative care has a ceiling, we will tell you honestly and help you get the right surgical opinion.
Seek medical care promptly if you cannot bear weight after a fall or injury, have fever alongside hip pain, notice rapid worsening, or have night pain that no change of position relieves.
