Paul,
Thank you for your insight in Egoscue and Pain Free.
I was recently diagnosed with an arthritic right hip with bone spurs. I am 35 and an avid competitive beach volleyball player but I have only been playing 10 years or so, so this came as a surprise to me. At first I accepted the bad news and was ready to begin my new career as a swimmer. I was told to buy Pain Free and after reading it I have changed my mind somewhat.
I have been doing the e-sises for about 2 weeks and have a question for you about the supine groin ex. When my left leg is extended, everything is fine and I see the results. When my right leg is extended, my bad hip side, it is very uncomfortable after 10 mins or so and even if I am able to hold that position for 45 mins like the book says, I see no loosening of my inner thigh. Is this something that over time it will loosen up or should I not push throught the uncomfortable pain? Any other tips or advise would be very much apprecitated.

David
