HIP REPLACEMENT RECOVERY: Get back on the horse. Walk the cobblestones. Climb out of the water with your tank still on.

Months after surgery, still hurting, and wondering why everyone else's recovery looks so much easier. This is not what you expected.

This sounds familiar:

You expected to be further along by now.

You can walk. But not normally. Not yet.

 

The people in your life seem to be losing patience. They expected you to be further along, and it shows.

 
You get up from a table and brace yourself for those first painful steps.
 
You have a few good days, push a little further — then the pain comes back without warning.
 
You've wondered if it's bursitis. You've wondered if it's tendonitis. No one has given you a clear answer.
 
 You feel like no one has really listened.
 
You're tired of waiting for something to change on its own.
 
Somewhere along the way, staying home got easier than going out. Maybe you got a little too comfortable. Maybe it's just simpler to say no.
 

Here's the explanation no one has given you.

Your hip joint is new and free from arthritis.

What you're feeling now isn't coming from the joint itself. It's coming from everything around it.

Your body was coping with pain for months, maybe years, before surgery. Muscles and tissues went through significant trauma during the procedure. And after surgery, your body developed protective movement patterns to get you through recovery.

Those patterns don't just disappear on their own. Until something shifts them, they keep driving your symptoms.

That's what's actually going on.

 

Roughly 20% of women still struggle with pain months after hip replacement.

The joint is fine. The arthritis is gone. But the body has been through a lot. Nobody warns you about that part.

You're not making it up. You're not being weak. You're not failing at recovery.

There are real reasons you're still in pain. And full recovery — including getting back to the activities you love — is entirely possible.

 

HI, I'M KIM

 

The PT with a hip replacement.

 

I'm a licensed physical therapist with over 30 years of experience helping people make sense of pain, movement, and recovery.

After my own hip replacement, my recovery was slower than I expected. The joint was excellent. But the stiffness, the shifting pain, the weakness — none of that was explained to me.

I felt like a failure. I'm a high achiever and a physical therapist with thirty years of experience, and I could not figure out my own recovery.

That's exactly why I created this session. And it's why I show up to every one of them the way I wish someone had shown up for me.

Questions about the session

Is this actual physical therapy or something different?
 
This is a coaching and education session, not a physical therapy treatment. What I will give you — as a licensed physical therapist with over 30 years of clinical experience — is something most women at this stage haven't had: a clear explanation for what's actually driving your symptoms and specific guidance on what to focus on next.
 
I've already been to PT. Will this be any different?
 
Yes. Most PT at this stage focuses on exercise prescription. This session starts with listening. That's my job first — before anything else. I want to hear what you've been experiencing, physically and emotionally. That's usually where the real picture starts to emerge.
 
What if you can't help me either?
 
I've navigated this recovery myself. I know what it feels like to still be hurting when everyone expects you to be fine. Most women tell me they feel lighter just from finally saying out loud what they've been carrying. And if something raises a concern that needs further medical attention, I'll tell you that and give you the framework to get the answers you need.
 
What if I don't know how to explain what I'm feeling?
 
That's my job. You don't need to know the names of muscles or anything about anatomy. All you have to do is give me some examples of when you're having problems. I'll ask targeted questions that help you find the right words. You just show up.
 
What if I cry?
 
It's okay. Honestly, I almost expect it — because of what you've been carrying. Have a box of tissues nearby and don't hold back. Letting those emotions out is part of the healing process too.
 
Is there pressure to buy something else after the session?
 
No. This session is complete on its own. In 30 years of practice, I've never believed in selling people something they don't need. That's not going to change here.
 

Only you know when you're done waiting to feel better.

You've spent months waiting, wondering, and managing. This is two hours of your time — the session and the follow-up call — with someone who has been exactly where you are.

That's a different kind of investment.

When you're ready, I'm here.
