"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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
"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."

The needles stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue, triggering a natural healing response. This boosts circulation, reduces inflammation, and helps reset the body’s pain signals — especially when combined with modern sports-science assessment.
Acupuncture is ideal for people dealing with:
