Expert Hip Pain Physical Therapy in Boston, MA
Find lasting relief from chronic back pain with specialized care that addresses the root cause and gets you back to the activities you love.
Hip Pain Is Holding You Back — But It Doesn't Have To
Whether it’s a sharp pinch in your groin, aching after a run, or postpartum hip instability, living with hip pain means giving up the activities that make you feel like yourself. You deserve better than ‘just rest and see how it goes.’
Pain That Won’t Quit
You’ve tried rest, stretching, even ignoring it — but the aching, clicking, or sharp hip pain keeps coming back every time you push yourself.
Generic Advice Isn’t Working
You’ve been told to ‘take it easy’ or ‘strengthen your core,’ but no one has addressed how your pelvic floor, posture, and hip mechanics all connect.
You’re Missing What You Love
Running, lifting, yoga, keeping up with your kids — hip pain is quietly stealing the activities that fuel you, and you’re tired of sitting it out.

“I’ve been working with Juliana at Pacer Physical Therapy for several years. When I first came in, I was dealing with chronic back pain and had seen several physical therapists without meaningful success. Juliana quickly identified the root issue and created a treatment plan that was both effective and manageable. Thanks to her, I’ve successfully trained for several half marathons, achieving personal records.“

“Juliana was amazing to work with. She is incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable and helps you to cheer yourself on. She helped me immensely as I navigated low back pain as a result of decreased core strength from 3 pregnancies in 5 years. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Juliana.“
–Kenya D.
“After two hip surgeries and a back surgery, I struggled with fear of another injury and severe muscle compensation issues. I have been working with Juliana since April and I have seen an incredible change in both my muscle strength and body compensation issues. She was able to identify which muscles were not activating properly and which muscles were over active. Juliana’s work has been life changing for me.“

Your Questions, Answered
Everything you need to know before your first appointment at Pacer PT.
What is pelvic floor physical therapy, and how does it relate to hip pain?
Pelvic floor PT treats the deep muscles of the pelvis that directly influence hip stability, movement, and pain. Many hip conditions — including hip impingement, groin pain, and postpartum hip instability — are connected to pelvic floor dysfunction. At Pacer, we assess both to give you a complete, root-cause treatment plan.
Do I need a referral to be seen at Pacer Physical Therapy?
No referral is required. Massachusetts is a direct-access state, which means you can schedule an appointment with us directly — no wait for a physician’s order needed.
What should I expect at my first appointment?
Your first visit includes a thorough one-on-one evaluation with your Doctor of PT. We’ll review your history, assess your movement patterns, hip mechanics, and pelvic floor function, and work with you to set clear, achievable goals. Plan for approximately 60 minutes.
Do you accept insurance?
We recommend contacting our team directly at (617) 600-8071 to discuss your specific coverage and payment options. We’re happy to walk you through everything before you book.
Can I bring my baby or young child to appointments?
Absolutely. We understand that childcare isn’t always possible — especially postpartum. Our Back Bay clinic is welcoming to moms and babies, and we even offer our Mommy & Me bootcamp classes where you can bring your little one along.
Is Pacer PT right for me if I’m not pregnant or postpartum?
Yes. While we specialize in pelvic health for active women at all life stages — including pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause — we also treat a full range of hip and lower extremity conditions. If you’re an active woman dealing with hip pain, IT band issues, labral tears, or wanting to return to running, we’re here for you.
