When you get to the point of going through with a total hip replacement, chances are you’ve been struggling with years of pain. Your body adopts movement patterns to protect that area, and just because you had surgery doesn’t make those Neuro-motor patterns disappear.

this video popped up in my feed and I'm so thankful it did. Your video is a blessing because I struggle with my gait 6 weeks after bilateral total hip replacement. I believe these excercises will help my left leg which had more work done than the right. My therapist is always getting on me about my limp and upper body sway. 39 years of walking like that,now I have to develop a new walk. It's harder than I imagined. Thank you! God bless!

I really am glad I found this today, I am six weeks post left hip replacement. I am a personal trainer and fitness instructor and I am grieving that I haven’t bounce back as fast as I thought I would. I had 17 years of pain before this. I can’t wait to do your exercises.

Good perspective. I've had bilateral hip replacement and recently a hip "revision" on a 20 year old implant. My body had definitely "compensated" for my pain. Thanks for your consult. "-)

It’s been 5 months since my hip surgery and I’ve started putting 100% weight on it for about a month now. I still have a little bit of a limp and I feel like my physical therapy session are not really working out for me. I still can’t lift my leg as much nor can I hold my leg up for a long time. I’ve been in physical therapy for about 5 months and honestly I only see a little change. Most of my friends who had hip surgery are walking fine 3 months post op and I’m quite worried since I’ll be attending my next college semester on campus this time. I will be trying this out!! If you can give me a bit more tips I would very much appreciate it!

Hey, Hope you're doing great. My Dad is 54 years old. It has been 50-55 days since his total hip replacement surgery. He met with an accident which completely destroyed his left hip bone and had to get an implant. 50 days after the surgery :- He can walk for long now with the help of a stick but limping isn't going away. How long do you reckon it is going to take for limping to go away. The Physio tells that his both legs are of same size after the surgery but still as of now he ain't able to walk normaly. Thanks.

Post op almost two weeks hip replacement and my hip still looks out of place. I limped all my life prior to surgery because I was born with hip dysplasia and my hip was dislocated even after multiple surgeries so my hips look lopsided like one is higher than the other. I was told it was swelling but learning how to walk correctly is hard because I've never been able to

Good question. I had posterior and am so jealous of you guys that had anterior. But I think you’re not allowed to put your surgery leg behind you, so some of her moves do that.
