Groin

The groin is where the abdomen meets the thigh, crossed by muscles and tendons that stabilise the hip and pelvis. Groin pain is especially common in sport, where quick changes of direction, kicking, and sprinting load the adductor muscles. It can also develop gradually from overuse.

Physiotherapy helps by settling symptoms, progressively strengthening the affected muscles, and guiding a confident return to training and competition. In this section you'll find evidence-based assessment and rehabilitation guidance for groin strain, adductor-related pain, and athletic groin problems — practical protocols for clinicians and clear explanations so patients understand each stage of their recovery.
