Shockwave Treatment for Hip Pain & Trochanteric Pain Syndrome

Hip Pain Treatment in Kelowna, West Kelowna, Vernon & Lake Country

If you’re experiencing pain on the outside of your hip — especially when walking, climbing stairs, or lying on your side — you may be dealing with greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS). Shockwave treatment offers an effective, non-invasive solution that targets the root of the problem and speeds up your recovery.

What Is Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome?

GTPS is a common cause of lateral hip pain, often related to inflammation or irritation in the gluteal tendons and bursae near the greater trochanter (the bony part of your outer hip). It can affect both active individuals and those who are sedentary, especially women and people over 40.

Symptoms may include:

  • Sharp or aching pain on the outside of the hip
  • Discomfort when standing, walking, or lying on your side
  • Tenderness when pressing on the outer hip area
  • Reduced range of motion or stiffness

How Shockwave Treatment Helps

Shockwave treatment delivers focused acoustic waves into the affected tissues to:

  • Stimulate blood flow and cellular regeneration
  • Reduce inflammation in the bursa and tendons
  • Break down scar tissue and calcification, if present
  • Promote long-term pain relief and improved mobility

Benefits of Shockwave Treatment for Hip Pain

  • Non-surgical and drug-free
  • Minimal discomfort and no downtime
  • Typically effective within 3–5 sessions
  • Addresses the root cause — not just the symptoms

Who Is It For?

Shockwave treatment is ideal for those who:

  • Have had outer hip pain for more than 4–6 weeks
  • Have tried other treatments (stretching, rest, medications) without success
  • Are looking for a safe, non-invasive solution
