Here is my quick self evaluation, treatment, and strengthening/stabilization of the hip for anterior (front) hip pinching or pain during squatting.
This is based on the Eval, Reset, and Stabilize System I teach in The Eclectic Approach to Modern Manual Therapy.

The term engagement has seemingly become the buzzword du jour in almost every industry.
But it's for good reason. In health care, patient engagement can mean the difference between successful outcomes and incomplete care plans; happy, loyal patients and those who are disengaged; and a thriving clinic and one that’s losing patients (and profits).

Of greater interest, however, is the quality of care delivered to patients. For facilities providing physical therapy – especially to seniors – this is of vital importance.
