People who are very flexible usually respond well to the re-activation / strengthening exercises as well as some of the targeted tissue work.
Stretching is something that is usually best kept at a low-level or hardly at all.
Since infrequent or light stretching will likely be what you need to do - try incorporating more strengthening + trigger point work.
This can help decrease the knots in the hip that are not allowing for the hip joint to move properly.
The strengthening + stability work will teach your body to control your full range of motion which will reduce and eventually eliminate the 'ouch' or fear-inducing sensations of instability.
