Kelcy believes in developing individualized treatment plans that focus on patient goals. She feels that by providing people with the proper tools and knowledge, they can truly take charge of their recovery and continuing health.

Kelcy graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Oregon and continued her education at the University of Washington, earning a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2008. Since that time she has become a Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, completed classes through the North American Institute of Orthopedic Manual Therapy, and has taken numerous courses with a focus on outpatient orthopedics. This year she completed the ConnectTherapy Series of coursework with LJ Lee in Vancouver, B.C.

Hip flexor strains can vary in severity, ranging from mild stretches or micro-tears to partial or complete muscle tears. Symptoms of a hip flexor strain may include pain and tenderness in the front of the hip or upper thigh, pain or difficulty with hip movement or walking, swelling or bruising, and muscle weakness.

Treatment for a hip flexor strain typically involves the RICE method: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Resting the injured hip and avoiding activities that exacerbate the pain is important for healing. Applying ice packs to the area can help reduce pain and inflammation. Compression with an elastic bandage and elevating the leg when possible can also aid in reducing swelling.

In some cases, physical therapy exercises and stretching may be recommended to improve flexibility, strength, and promote healing. Severe strains may require medical intervention, such as medications or even surgery.

If you suspect you have a hip flexor strain, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or physical therapist, for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
