@JamesMcKoy There is actually. The PT I used just presented his study to UCLA surgeons. There have also been studies in animals that showed non surgical healing of labrum tears. I have no idea if mine healed completely. My hip has always felt different since I tore the labrum (I had an MRI so it was confirmed). But I can do everything without restriction now. I never said it was healed, but the reahb worked. Maybe when I am 70 I will need surgery but why would I do now when I have full ROM?
@ThaRiflekid I did conventional rehab, just strengthening at first. That did not work. Then I went to a PT who had success rehabbing other athletes/dancers without surgery. He did joint manipulation. That was the huge difference. After seeing him I had immediate improvement. It only took about two months twice a week to be 100% after that.

@coolintake I don't have any pain or discomfort in any ROM. I do have kind of a swollen feeling when I do squats below 90 degrees. External rotation is fine. My PT did a lot of joint manipulation to help that. It was bad at first. I try to limit squats but actually I recently got a new floor routine and there was a huge squatting part. I did it for four hours over and over. I had no pain or problems after. So, my hip doesn't feel the same but it doesn't restrict me in any way & I have no pain.
You are amazing.... Can I do that too?!!?!

hi there, I am curious to know if you've had pain/discomfort with external rotation of your hip (e.g squatting..etc)
hope your recovery went well.

There is no non-surgical rehab for a labrum tear.
It will ALWAYS get worse leading to joint destruction
