What Issues Do We Treat at Optimum Derby?

At Optimum Derby, we specialise in helping individuals overcome pain, recover from injuries, and return to their passions — whether that’s professional sport or a more active lifestyle. With over a decade of experience, we know that targeted physio, sports massage, and injury rehabilitation are key to a successful recovery.

But what specific issues do we treat at our clinic? Here’s a closer look at the conditions we commonly address and how our treatments can support your healing process.

1. Sports Injuries

Whether you’re a professional athlete or a recreational sports enthusiast, injuries can disrupt your training or daily routine. We treat:

  • Muscle strains (e.g., hamstring, quadriceps, calf)

  • Ligament sprains (e.g., ankle, knee)

  • Tendon injuries (e.g., Achilles tendinopathy, tennis elbow)

  • Joint pain and instability

  • Impact or contact injuries from sports like football, rugby, and running

Our approach combines physiotherapy for injury assessment and management, alongside sports massage to aid muscle recovery, improving flexibility and performance. We also design effective rehabilitation plans to ensure your return to sport is as safe and swift as possible.

2. Back and Neck Pain

Back and neck issues are among the most prevalent conditions we treat. Whether caused by posture, muscle imbalance, or spinal misalignment, we address:

  • Chronic back pain and stiffness

  • Neck tension and discomfort

  • Disc issues or nerve impingement

  • Sciatica and related symptoms

With a combination of manual therapy, physio-led interventions, and personalised exercises, we focus on both pain relief and long-term prevention, ensuring your spine remains mobile and pain-free.

3. Postural & Workplace Issues

Poor posture, long hours at a desk, or repetitive tasks can lead to musculoskeletal strain. We help with:

  • Upper back and shoulder tension

  • Repetitive strain injuries (RSI), such as carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Postural imbalances causing discomfort

  • Neck and lower back stiffness

Sports massage works wonders in releasing tight muscles and restoring proper muscle function, while our physiotherapy strategies address posture correction and ergonomic advice to prevent future issues.

4. Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

Recovering from surgery requires careful, structured rehabilitation. We assist clients recovering from surgeries like:

  • ACL reconstruction or knee surgeries

  • Shoulder stabilisation surgeries

  • Hip or knee replacements

  • Fracture recovery and healing

Our rehabilitation programmes are based on your surgeon's recommendations and are designed to progressively restore strength, mobility, and functionality, helping you recover fully and safely.

5. Chronic Conditions

Chronic conditions require long-term management and tailored support. We treat:

  • Arthritis and degenerative joint conditions

  • Tendinitis or chronic tendon issues

  • Fibromyalgia and widespread pain

  • Chronic joint instability or muscle weakness

We combine physiotherapy, manual techniques, and specialised sports massage to manage symptoms and improve function, empowering you to maintain an active lifestyle despite the challenges of chronic pain.
