About us

At our Sports Injury, Biomechanics, and Manipulation Medicine clinics, we’re all about keeping you moving — pain-free, stronger, and ready for whatever life throws your way. Built as part of the wider Werx Healthcare Engine, our clinics don’t operate in isolation. They connect seamlessly with rehabilitation, recovery, performance, and home-care services to form a fully integrated Werx Engine designed around long-term health and movement.

Founded by professionals with elite sport backgrounds, extensive clinical expertise, and over a decade of lecturing experience in rehabilitation, sport & biomedical science, we take a no-nonsense, results-driven approach to musculoskeletal care. Whether you're a weekend warrior, elite athlete, or simply feeling the strain of daily life, we help you recover, rebuild, and stay injury-free — both in clinic and beyond.

We specialise in injury rehabilitation, preventative care, hollistic, manual and manipulation therapy, tailored to your body and goals. From sports-specific recovery to chronic pain management, we focus on the root cause — not just the symptoms — across our clinical settings and structured home-care Recovery Pods.

Tying it all together is The Werx Directory — the "Central Hub" for the Werx Engine. It brings services, clinics, information, and bookings into one clear, easy-to-use platform, making it simple to find the right support at the right time.


What sets us apart?

Real-world experience, academic depth, cutting-edge techniques, and an unwavering commitment to exceptional care. You’re not just another appointment — you’re part of a connected system built on strength, resilience, and lasting wellbeing.

"Let’s get you back to doing what you love — and doing it better than ever."

Mr Darren Smith
Founder of The Werx Group
A Healthcare Engine, Powering Your Wellbeing

Our Mission

Our mission is to restore movement, relieve pain, and prevent injury through expert hands-on care and genuinely personalised treatment. Powered by the Werx Healthcare Engine, we deliver connected, evidence-led care that goes beyond isolated appointments, focusing on long-term outcomes rather than short-term fixes.

Through the Werx Engine, we support every client — from elite athletes to everyday movers — across our clinical settings and into their own homes. By integrating hands-on therapy, rehabilitation, performance support, and structured home-care solutions, we ensure continuity of care at every stage of recovery and progression.

We exist to help people recover stronger, move better, and stay active for the long haul — with clarity, confidence, and support built into every step of their journey.

Our Vision

Our vision is to redefine sports injury and musculoskeletal care, becoming the leading name through a connected, future-focused approach. Built on the Werx Healthcare Engine, we aim to unite clinical excellence with personalised, human-centred care that adapts to every individual.

Through the Werx Engine, we envision a seamless journey that empowers people of all ages, abilities, and activity levels to move freely, recover fully, and perform with confidence. By extending care beyond the clinic and into the home, we create lasting resilience, independence, and trust.

Our goal is long-term health, sustainable performance, and a smarter, simpler experience that supports movement for life — in clinic, at home, and across every stage of the journey, now and for years to come.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"I've been seeing Darren for about 5 years now and can never fault him, really knows his stuff, so informative and such a nice guy too, I've recommended him to many people over the years who all agree. Personally had back problems which I was told by consultants would require injections, then potentially surgery, after seeing Darren, I've been back playing football and running almost from the first session. Highly recommend! The website is easy to navigate and booking an appointment is very straightforward."

SCOTT THOMSON

"Google Review"

"Firstly, Darren’s knowledge of his field is clear the second you walk through the door. The assessment he undertakes is incredibly thorough and he takes time to explain everything. Secondly, during the treatment he explained how he was going to treat me, why that was beneficial and how I could maintain and build strength at every point in the treatment. His application and treatment is next level with almost instantaneous relief. I can honestly say I’ve walked out of my appointment with pain I’ve suffered for years almost completely gone, headache I’ve had for the last week has disappeared and I feel so well. Darren genuinely cares and wants to help, and I felt in the safest and most knowledgeable hands. Incredibly grateful. No hesitation in returning."

EMMA GRAY

"Google Review"

"Highly recommend Werx Clinic and Darren. I've been seeing Darren since 2018. I have lower back, upper back, shoulders and neck issues, not to mention my hips and ribs always being out of line. Darren is the only Osteo I've found who can get me back in line and make me feel normal again. Always friendly as well, wouldn't go anywhere else."

ALEX PAYNE

"Google Review"

"Darren came recommended by my coach and it's clear to see why! His knowledge, insight, and practice is impeccable and it was really good to take on his guidance. I felt invigorated afterwards and my body realigned. As active individual in bodybuilding, I'm looking forward to seeing how my body feels in my training following this. Certainly recommend!"

JOSHUA TRENDELL

"Google Review"

"I used Darren in Sprowston after being recommended him by a friend. I’m in my 40s with lots of injuries from years of playing hockey. His knowledge of what my issues were was great. Very professional and made me feel really at ease. I would highly recommend him to any1 who needs an osteopath and will be using him again."

THOMAS WHITWOOD

"Google Review"

"The Werx Clinic was recommended to me by the owner of a very reputable gym I attend for weight training and PT. I had been suffering for over 6 months with pain in my right elbow, which had progressed to my wrist and shoulder. I had tried everything from rest, exercises, sports massages, and eventually a GP visit, but nothing relieved the pain. Booking my initial consultation was a breeze, the website is easy to navigate, very explanatory and their pricing transparent. On first meeting clinician Darren Smith his passion, understanding and in-depth knowledge was clearly obvious. I felt at ease and comfortable throughout my treatment, and as we progressed through my different alignments, Darren continually explained why, how and what he was doing. At 56yrs old, I had just accepted my daily aches and pains, blaming old injuries and age, but after my appointment with Darren, I realised how out of sync I had become. Not only had the pain in my right arm subsided (now gone), but my whole body felt less restricted and much more mobile. I am a firm believer in ‘if you want to get the job done properly, see a specialist’ and that’s why I would, and have recommended The Werx Clinic. They are specialists in all things Musculoskeletal."

LOUISE BAKER

"Google Review"

"I've been using the werx clinic for over 4 years due to struggling with back pain. Darren is the only osteo I've found who is able to get me back to normal and pain free with a 12 week management plan. Darren is only ever a message away if you're needing advice or struggling.Would highly recommend using the werx clinic."

MARK RIDLEY

"Google Review"

"Went to see Darren after I did my back in at the gym. He was amazing, so knowledgeable and did so much with me in the hour I was with him. He explained everything really well, gave me exercises to do at home. I walked in hardly being able to bend and walked out being able to touch my toes. Highly recommend!"

DANI ALLEN

"Google Review"

"Fantastic! I can only describe the treatment as magic. I had pain in my elbow and this was fixed within seconds. A full assessment conducted and time taken over my care and treatment. Very respectful, thorough and clearly passionate about his work. Would recommend and would definitely go back if needed."

KATIE COOPER

"Google Review"

"Treatment with Darren worth every penny - I went to see him yesterday and feel absolutely brand new. He is excellent at what he does, extremely knowledgeable, and doesn’t send you away feeling like you didn’t get value for money. I go roughly every 4-6 months anyway but always feel brilliant after."

KGM SPORTS MASSAGE

"Google Review"

"I’ve been going to Darren for a couple of years now and I can honestly say that every time I leave his clinic I feel like a new man. Darren really knows his stuff! He’s also very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend."

AIDAN PERUZZI

"Google Review"

"I was injured with nerve damage for 9 months, with multiple trips to a physiotherapist with little improvement. I was recommended by a friend and I couldn't recommend highly enough. I'm now able to do everything I could before."

DIZZY KING

"Google Review"

"I’ve suffered from lower back pain due to pirriformis issues for years (10plus), worsen with my current job that is stationary. Physio helped but not massively. I went to Darren on recommendation of a friend with similar issues - he instantly knew what I needed and how my back issues were causing other issues further down my leg. With some hip/lower back manipulation and massage I no longer suffer with lower back pain! Quick and easy to book, down to earth gentleman, with great empathy and knowledge of muscoskeletal issues. You won’t regret going to him if you need help. Thanks Darren."
