Treat Your Own Hip

As a physical therapist myself, it’s important to me that patients are given resources that not only help them to become self-reliant, but tools that actually make them better. There are many tools available in the industry (exercises, modalities, etc.) but not all of these are created equal. Not by a long shot. Robin McKenzie is one of a pipeline of talented clinicians from New Zealand that through the rich history of NZ physiotherapy (beginning with the arrival of European physio, Kaltenborn) and the clinical experience of treating hundreds of patients and developing an accurate sense for pattern recognition, have created a system/method for treating major musculoskeletal injuries without the use or need for drugs, surgery, or the reliance on other healthcare professionals. Treat Your Own Hip gives the reader an opportunity to assess and treat his or her own hip pain. The language is concise and the book is fully illustrated, making this guide user friendly and ready to implement from day one.

Great easy exercises.

Explains why pain happens. Not just a collection of exercises. Shows how to distinguish between hip pain caused by back problems and hip problems. Short -- only 88 pages. Clearly written, but best approached in short sessions. Kindle readers -- font size is NOT adjustable. Type is small on my HD10. Need reading Glasses. However, the formatting is fine; type is clear. Pictures and diagrams are fine. Highlighting does work. You might prefer a paperback if you don't like small type. Amazon samples are useless. Shows author credentials but no intro material or table of contents. No way to judge the product.

Must have! Buy the whole series. Easy read and very understandable.

Plain discussion with easy to understand exercises and great visual aids. A quick read, a can’t miss protocol for those who have been intimidated in the past.

I'm the kind of person who doesn't run to the doctor for every little ailment I have, and this whole series of books is great. If you are disciplined enough to do the work, there are practical exercises to help you, and they really worked for me! There are also books on healing your own neck, back, etc.

Product in excellent, perfect condition though advertised as good, used. Arrived on time. Content is typical Robin McKenzie, that the ability to heal is within your own dedication to doing the exercises and repetitions.

Easy read and informative. Ifyou know anything about Yoga, you probably don’t need this book.

So pleased to get the set of these books from Amazon. They are great exercises. They are written by a great man!

It had everything you need to know about Arthritis in the hip and how remedy the pain, Great Book I’d recommend it to anyone

I found in my opinion this a Very helpful book regarding hip education including anatomy lesson, gentle exercises provided even for a total hip arthroplasty, arthritis.

Great information and easy to understand. I read this book in two hours. Very reasonable regimen to help with my hip pain.

Written in very simple and clear English Almost too simple.The method is based on four main exercises with progresions I am sad to say they have made virtually no difference to an on going problem .There again it may work for you
