Categorized PT for Non-arthritic Hip and Groin Pain

There is currently limited literature on a categorized physical therapy protocol for management of hip pain. Only a handful of studies have looked at the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip with a standardized physical therapy treatment, primarily looking at manual therapy versus exercise therapy protocols. However, there are no studies observing the effect of a standardized physical therapy program on patients presenting with non-arthritic hip and groin pain. Based on the gap in the literature, this study will aim to assess the effect of matrix-based standard of care therapy in patients presenting with non-arthritic hip and groin pain.

Comparing the Effects of Holmich Protocol Exercise Therapy and Joint Mobilization Training on Pain, Balance, Function of the Lower Limb, and Muscle Activity in Soccer Players with Athletic Groin Pain.

The goal of this clinical trial is comparison the Holmich protocol exercise therapy and joint mobilization training, investigating their respective effects on muscle activity in soccer players with athletic groin pain. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a difference between Holmich protocol exercise therapy and joint mobilization training on pain, balance, function of the lower limb, and Muscle activity in Soccer Players with athletic Groin Pain ? Researchers will compare Holmich protocol exercise therapy (HT)with joint mobilization training (JMT) to see if the exercises are effective on pain, balance, lower limb function, and muscle activity. Participants will: Practice Holmich protocol exercise therapy (HT) three times a week, 90 minutes per session, for 12 weeks. Practice joint mobilization training (JMT) for 12 weeks.
