Hip Manipulation for Improved Strength in Patients With Hip Pain

This is the primary intervention applied to the experimental group. It involves a high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust at the greater trochanter of the affected hip, intended to improve joint mobility and potentially address neuromuscular dysfunction contributing to hip pain and weakness.

This serves as the control intervention. It involves gentle hand placement over the affected hip\'s external rotators for a brief duration. This is intended to mimic the physical contact of the UFIR manipulation without actually delivering the therapeutic thrust.
