Physiotherapy at ONE|DZ

What's Included in Your Physio Session

Our space combines expert coaching, modern facilities and a warm, family-run community so rehab feels simple to stick with.

Quick Assessment & Goal Check

We take a short history, screen the key movements that bother you, and agree clear goals. We set a simple red/amber/green guide so you know what’s safe, what to limit, and what to avoid for now.

Settle Symptoms & Restore Movement

We calm things down first. Expect isometrics, tempo reps, gentle mobility and breathing work, with light hands-on treatment if useful. The aim is less pain and smoother movement before we load anything.

Rebuild Strength & Capacity

We use graded loading in the patterns you need most, hinge, squat/step, push, pull and carry. Range, tempo and volume are tailored to your symptoms so you can train without flaring up. We record what you do so progress is obvious week to week.

Homework & Next Steps

You leave with a plan you can actually stick to; what to do, how often, and how it should feel. We include simple rules for work and sport, when to use the saunas or recovery work, and book your next check-in so the plan keeps moving.

Rebuild Strength Without Rushing the Process

We start with what you can do today. That might be a shorter range of motion, a lighter load or a slower tempo. Each week we nudge things forward so strength and tolerance grow without kicking symptoms off again. If you already work with a coach, we can share your plan so training and rehab pull in the same direction. Many people also use the infrared saunas to unwind after sessions and reduce stiffness.

Everything You Need to Know About Physiotherapy

We’ve answered the most common questions below, so you know exactly how our physiotherapy process works and what to expect when you visit ONE DZ in Derby.

What happens in my first physio session?

We start with a short assessment to see what movements cause pain, then guide you through gentle exercises and hands-on treatment. You’ll leave with a plan that’s simple to follow at home or in the gym.

Do I need a doctor’s referral before booking physiotherapy?

No. You can book directly. If you already see a physio or coach, we can share your plan so everyone works toward the same goal.

Can I keep training while I recover?

Yes. We’ll show you what’s safe, what to limit, and what to avoid for now. Most people keep training with adjusted loads and ranges.

What injuries do you help with?

Knee, shoulder and back pain, post-surgery strength rebuilds, tendon issues and most training-related niggles. If we think you need medical review, we’ll say so before starting.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on the injury and your goals. Most people notice progress after two to three visits, with steady improvement each week.

Do I need a gym membership to book physiotherapy?

No. You can book one-off sessions. Some people add a gym and sauna plan once they start building strength again.

Are the sessions private?

Yes. You’ll work in a calm space with access to racks, platforms and floor areas without crowds. There’s time to move carefully and ask questions.

What should I wear or bring?

Wear comfortable gym clothes and trainers. Bring any braces or straps you normally use, plus a water bottle.

A Calm Space to Rebuild

You won’t be squeezed between classes or rushed through sets. There’s room for careful movement checks, isometrics, tempo work and graded loading without crowds. Racks, platforms, cables, sleds, bands, steps and quiet floor areas let us target exactly what your injury needs, from early-range work to return-to-lifting drills.

Take your time, move without pressure, and leave feeling better than you arrived.
