Q & A for The 16% – Hip Impingement? Should you do a “hip scour” to determine hip joint shape?

February 19, 2020 By Bill Leave a Comment

Hey Bill,

I’ve been diving into your videos about initial assessments and measurements, and I had a quick question about your hip flexion measurement. When you’re measuring hip flexion, do you like the use of a hip scour before you test the compressive hip flexion position? I was curious if you’d change the angle of your hip flexion if an individual showed signs of impingement or a pinch sensation in the imaginary sagittal plane of testing. Would you just use the measurement of right before those issues occur? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

Paul

Should you push hip flexion beyond the point of pressure or pain?

Do I ever use a hip scour test to determine hip joint shape?

How do I determine hip internal vs. external rotation?
