Pain down the leg is not normal — and it won’t fix itself.
Tight hips, deep glute pain, or nerve-like symptoms can seriously affect how you walk, sit, and work.
Pain in the hip and glute region is often linked to nerve irritation, muscle tightness, or joint dysfunction.
It can start locally but often spreads into the lower back, buttock, or down the leg.
Common conditions we see include:
- Sciatica (nerve irritation from lower back)
- Piriformis syndrome / deep gluteal syndrome
- Gluteal muscle dysfunction
- Hip joint restriction / impingement
- Referred pain from lumbar spine
- SI joint dysfunction
You may experience:
- Pain radiating from lower back to glute or leg
- Deep aching pain in the buttock
- Numbness, tingling, or burning sensation
- Pain when sitting, driving, or standing up
- Tightness that doesn’t stretch out
Treatment focuses on relieving nerve irritation and restoring movement:
- Myotherapy & remedial massage
- Dry needling (including electro dry needling)
- Deep gluteal release techniques
- Joint mobilisation (hip & lower back)
- Movement correction & strengthening
Don’t let nerve pain get worse over time.
Get assessed early and move freely again.
