Hip Chicks - Hip Dysplasia and Impingement Support Group






A few months ago one of our wonderful customers, Kristin, introduced us to Hip Chicks Unite, a Hip Dysplasia and Impingement Group. We joined the group and have found the members to be very friendly and supportive.

The inspiration behind Hip Chicks is
Krystal Clausen, a vivacious and highly spirited young woman who was recently diagnosed with bilateral dysplasia. Krystal's vision for the site was to create a support group community with a network of fellow Hip Chicks that interact on a personal level. And, from what we can tell, she is well on her way to achieving her vision with 276 chicks and counting.

Hip Chicks is a free member site. However, donations are welcome as Krystal supports this site through her photography work on
Etsy, proceeds from selling Hip Chicks merchandise on Zazzle and Hip Chicks Unite Store.

Stop by and say hi to Krystal, do some shopping, check out the informational links and join one of the many groups, such as Hipster Club, Parents of "HIP" Kids, etc. We did. It's fun!
