Dr Alison Grimaldi continues to teach globally, bringing better hip treatment to those with hip pain everywhere

One of our Co-founders, Dr. Alison Grimaldi, has had a very busy year teaching other hip professionals. With Covid still impacting travel, Alison’s workshops were limited for most of the year, but she managed to bring together health professionals from all over Australia for her Brisbane workshops in July. Alison has also provided short workshops in conferences at the Gold Coast and Sydney, online workshops for health professionals from all over the world and online conference presentations or hosted workshops for groups in Spain, Brazil, Ireland, and New Zealand.

Alison continues to run her popular Hip Academy, a community of over 200 health professionals from all over the globe who have a special passion in learning more and helping more people with their hip pain.

Right now, Alison has set out on another adventure, and is headed to London, where she will be holding some more practical workshops for other physiotherapists. We wish Alison all the best with her workshops, and safe travels!

In 2023, she already has teaching tours planned for Canada and the USA, and the UK and Europe, as well as local and online workshops booked. She is keynoting as conferences in Canada & Sweden. It will certainly be a busy year but Alison’s passion for furthering knowledge about hip pain only continues to grow.

Our Growing Online Directory of Hip Professionals

When you use our Find a Hip Pain Professional Search, have a closer look at the results.  Each Hip Pain Professional will specify which hip pain management they provide from the above list.

Our Online Global Directory of Hip Pain Professionals has seen even more growth this year, with more hip pain help in more places around the world than ever before! These are health professionals who know hips and can help with your hip, groin, buttock or pelvic pain.

We have Hip Pain Professionals located across Australia, New Zealand, UK, Europe, and we are continuing to build our directory.

Remember, even if there is not a health professional close to you at this stage, most of our HIp Pain Professionals also provide virtual consultations, so they can still provide a modified assessment, some really powerful advice and develop a tailored exercise program for you. These are the key elements for controlling hip and pelvic pain for the longer term.
