Hip Hook (Mark)
Hip pain, low back pain, sciatica. The Hip Hook reaches the same hidden muscle often driving all of it. Together with the FREE Orbit ($29 value) the Primary Core™ system.
DESCRIPTION
If you’ve tried PT, massage, stretching, and the pain keeps coming back, the problem is likely not where you’re feeling it. The iliacus and psoas, the deep hip flexors at the center of your body’s alignment, are the muscles most conventional tools simply can’t reach.
The Hip Hook was designed by a physical therapist specifically to target them, replicating a hands-on clinical technique that previously required an office visit. Its precision tip and rotating mechanism apply sustained, targeted pressure to both muscles with control you can feel.
In one randomized controlled trial, participants experienced a 27% reduction in pain after a single 90-second session.* Because the iliacus and psoas sit at the center of the body’s alignment, releasing them is the first step, and often the most impactful one, toward resolving pain that has traveled far from its source.
* In a randomized controlled trial of 25 participants with chronic lower back pain. Results may vary.

WILL THIS WORK FOR ME?
The Aletha devices are designed for people who’ve already tried everything (PT, chiropractors, massage, foam rolling) and still haven’t found lasting relief. If that sounds like you, there’s a strong chance muscle tension in your keystone muscles (like the iliacus and psoas) is the missing piece.
71% of participants experienced reduced muscle tension after just one 90-second session,* and 57% of customers report pain relief.** If chronic muscle tension has been overlooked in your care, this addresses something most other tools simply can’t reach.
*In a randomized controlled trial of 25 participants with chronic lower back pain. Results may vary.
**Based on a survey of 377 Aletha customers. User-reported experiences. Results may vary.

The Hip Hook targets the muscles that are tight in nearly everyone
The hip flexor muscles are prone to developing tension for many reasons: excessive sitting, poor posture, instability, past injuries, and overuse. This pulls joints out of alignment, restricts mobility, and becomes both the signal and source of chronic pain.
The Hip Hook provides sustained pressure for 90 seconds to interrupt the pain-spasm cycle, restore blood flow, calm the nervous system, and allow the muscle to release.
Proven Results
71% felt reduced muscle tension after one session
More than 7 out of 10 participants experienced a meaningful decrease in muscle tightness after releasing their iliacus and psoas muscles with the Hip Hook.
27% pain reduction in just 90 seconds
Participants experienced a 27% decrease in pain after using the Hip Hook for 90 seconds.
19% more effective than stretching alone
Participants using the Hip Hook consistently (3x/week) for 4 weeks experienced 19% less pain than others who only did stretching.
*Results from a randomized controlled trial of participants with chronic low back pain (n=25). Individual results may vary.
Tension in these muscles can contribute to pain
Tight Hip Flexors Can Affect Your Entire Body
When the iliacus, psoas, and hip rotators like the piriformis are tight, it tips and twists the pelvis and creates a ripple effect of pain and alignment issues through the hips, spine, and lower body.
- Pulls your pelvis forward
- Strains the SI joint
- Compresses the hip joint
- Twists the lower back
- Rotates your leg inward
- Strains the inside and compresses the outside of the knee
- Moves the patella laterally
- Overpronates the foot
- Strains the big toe
Could this be your pattern?
Designed to Replace My Fingers
"After 25 years of clinical practice and treating thousands of patients, I kept finding the same hidden pattern, a tight iliacus muscle driving pain that no one was addressing. I designed the Hip Hook to give you the same deep release my patients get in my office, in the comfort of your own home."
Christine Annie, MPT - Founder of Aletha
Your Personal PT, in Your Pocket
Included: Free companion app

Your Complete System
Included: FREE Orbit
The Hip Hook targets the iliacus and psoas. The Orbit extends that reach to the psoas and opposing muscles on the back of the hip. Together, they give you complete coverage of the deep hip flexor system and its effects on the glute area, the same muscles a physical therapist would address in a clinical session. The Orbit is included at no extra cost.
