Adductor STRETCHES for Hip Pain Relief

Tight hips? The problem might not be your hip joint — it could be your adductors (inner thigh muscles). In this video, Dr. Erin Policelli, DPT, explains how tight adductors can cause hip pain and demonstrates how to release them using PNF stretching techniques (Contract–Relax and Contract–Relax–Agonist–Contract).

You’ll learn:

✅ Why adductor tightness leads to hip, pelvic, and low back pain

✅ How the CR and CRAC methods unlock hip mobility

✅ A step-by-step guide to the Side Lunge and Butterfly PNF stretches

By retraining your nervous system—not just pulling on the muscle—you’ll improve flexibility, mobility, and hip stability for long-term pain relief.
