Still Dealing With Groin Pain That Won't Go Away?

Groin injuries are stubborn. They flare up during your workout, ease off with rest — then come right back the moment you push again. Most people try the same cycle of ice, stretching, and waiting, and never actually get better.

The "Rest and Hope" Trap

You take time off, the pain fades, you return to activity — and it comes back within days. Without addressing the underlying cause, rest only delays the problem.

Generic Treatment That Misses the Mark

A quick adjustment or a generic stretch routine won't fix a groin strain. Without a movement assessment and targeted rehab, you're treating symptoms, not the source.

Months of Missed Training Add Up

Every week you spend managing pain instead of training is a week of lost strength, fitness, and confidence. The longer it lingers, the harder the comeback.

sentiment_very_satisfied

Step 1: Diagnose the Root Cause

Your initial 45–60 minute evaluation includes a comprehensive movement screen, range-of-motion testing, and a full history of your injury. We identify not just where the pain is, but why it keeps coming back — and we explain it to you in plain language before we touch you.

Step 2: Restore, Rebuild, and Reload

Your personalized care plan moves through three phases: reduce pain and restore mobility, rebuild stability and correct faulty movement patterns, then progressively reload with sport-specific strength and performance work. Progression is based on how your body responds, not a rigid calendar.

Step 3: Return to Sport — For Good

You leave with the tools to manage your body independently. No chronic dependence on care. From groin strain to return-to-running benchmarks, we track your progress and confirm you're truly ready before you push back to full intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your first visit — no surprises, no commitments.

Your first visit is a 45–60 minute one-on-one evaluation with your doctor. We start with a full movement screen and functional assessment to identify the root cause of your groin pain — not just where it hurts, but why it keeps coming back. From there, you'll receive a personalized, phase-based care plan that may include dry needling, soft tissue work, joint mobilization, shockwave therapy, and structured corrective exercises. Every follow-up visit is 60 minutes with your same doctor, and every tool used is included in your flat-rate visit — no upsells or surprise charges.

No referral is needed, and we typically offer same-week appointments. 417 Performance is a self-pay clinic with all-inclusive flat-rate pricing. We accept HSA/FSA cards and offer payment plans.

Our goal isn't to keep you coming back indefinitely. We want you independent, equipped, and back to your sport as quickly as your tissue allows.
