Patients receive 8 to 16 supervised sessions during the HIPSTER intervention. Evidence is limited on whether structured reproducible physical therapist-led interventions outperform usual care. The HIPSTER intervention combines patient education with exercise therapy. The HIPSTER model is a 16-week structured, individualized, progressive physical therapist-led package in primary care. Physical therapists delivering HIPSTER receive training and treatment manuals. Physical therapist-led care is recommended as first-line management for longstanding hip and groin pain.
