Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) can be a tricky condition for many to handle. The pain can debilitate even the best athlete once it progresses to a certain point.
Interestingly, our focus with FAI is often on trying to buffer any bony abnormalities with strength and muscular stretching. However, I find that a strong focus on hip joint capsular mobility can be hugely advantageous by increasing the amount of slack in the joint potentially adding a greater buffer against bony abnormalities and joint dysfunction.
In today's video, I highlight one highly effective hip joint capsule exercise to treat hip impingement. I also discuss the bigger picture that often gets overlooked when trying to understand the cause of Femoroacetabular Impingement.
