DMK Performance and Injury - Osteopathy

Fantastic experience: I started with Darren when i had knee pain due to a long term ACL injury, through my ACL operation & the recovery, the overall experience from start to finish was great, the detail Darren puts into his work is nothing short of superb, and it shows in the final outcome. My knee is back to full strength and i have gained so much confidence in it to go back into training again!

Fantastic experience: Darran has been an excellent coach and has allowed me to shift from a place of potentially considering surgery to pain free with rehab alone. I had a S1/L5 disc herniation which was affecting my sleep and day to day ability to function and training as a powerlifter had all but stopped bar bench press. I was recommended surgery as treatment by the hospital which I wanted to avoid so I contacted Darran to explore the rehab route. Darran performed a thorough assessment and with meticulous rehab programming and tweaks when necessary, it has allowed me to get back to lifting weights similar to where I was before the injury and I am back squatting and deadlifting again without any pain afterwards. Darran is great at communicating and explaining how and why rehab exercises are being performed and his organisation and the systems that are in place allow for a great flow of getting feedback. I would highly recommend working with Darran and should I develop another injury I will know who to see to fix the issue.

Fantastic experience: I originally contacted Darren because of over a decade of lower back pain, his assessment was thorough and his programming excellent. He had strategic goals in different phases, pushing the limits without overdoing it. I can honestly say all aspects of my life have improved, we went over health, diet, weight training, stress, sleep, all things that could contribute to chronic inflammation. He coached me through it all and I’ve genuinely gone from being 7/8 out of 10 pain daily to nothing, it’s crazy. I can’t recommend him enough!

Fantastic experience: I worked with Darran for 5 months after dealing with a slipped disc, debilitating back pain and rib pain that had been getting progressively worse over the years and was not responding to all other types of therapies. From the start, he did a really thorough assessment and looked at everything from my feet upwards. Then he built a gradual plan which focused on building up my strength and mobility in a safe and structured way. The difference has been huge. My rib pain has completely gone and Im able to breath without pain, and I can now do squats, lunges and ab work without pain, which I honestly didn’t think would be possible for me again. I’ve also noticed a huge improvement in my strength and control in yoga, pilates and weight lifting. What I appreciated most was the focus on long-term results and actually understanding how my body works. I feel a lot stronger, more stable, and much more confident moving again. I'm really grateful for all his help and I’d definitely recommend Darran to anyone dealing with ongoing pain.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing work , started with lots of stiffness and pain in my joints , working with Darren has really helped me be able to enjoy sports again without any pains or discomfort, I’d 100% go back to him and would definitely recommend to a friend or family , 10/10 experience

Fantastic experience: Seen Darran twice now for two different conditions. He would be my first port of call for any future injuries. Firstly I had ongoing knee pain for years, was thinking about upping my medical insurance at work and considering medical intervention. I heard about Darran and thought I would give him a try first. I went to him not being able to sit in a lowered kneeling position. After a detailed assessment Darran noticed my feet, ankles and hamstrings were not working correctly, and causing the agrevation in the knees. Within two weeks my years of knee pain was starting to reverse. Within 4 weeks I was back to kneeling down. Within 12 weeks I was doing exercises and movements I thought I would never be able to do again. Recently I torn my shoulder rotator cuff, my first reaction was pick up the phone to Darran. Booked on with him and again just like before, identified the root cause of the injury, and not only removed the pain, but trained my body to move better so the injury would no reoccur. Basically years of static desk work had rounded my shoulders and they weren’t working as they should. Roughly 4 weeks the pain had gone, by 12 weeks was back to press-ups chin ups and enjoying a range of motion in my shoulders that I never new existed. Top guy, great sense of humour, absolute professional in his field of work!

Fantastic experience: I worked with Darran for about a year, starting with a rehab program to address a persistent shoulder issue that had been keeping me out of the gym and causing discomfort in everyday life. Darran is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and very reassuring. Within just a few months, I was back performing movements like the barbell overhead press (from not even being able to raise my arm above my head pain free). Through his strength and performance program, I also managed to hit new PBs across multiple exercises while continuing to work toward my broader fitness goals, and learning better diet habits too. I can’t recommend him highly enough. Thanks again, Darran!

Fantastic experience: I was struggling with a chronic knee, elbow and shoulder injury for 3-4 years and had been stopping me from going to the gym and started to really affect my day to day life. I was in a very bad way not only physically but mentally as well, I fully believed I'd have to work around these injuries for the rest of my life. I saw multiple physios and they would give me the same half assed 2-3 exercises and useless advice, telling me to come back in a month for a "review". Waste of my time and money. A friend recommended Darren to me and I can confidently say it was the best thing I've ever done in my life. I'm a student osteopath so was skeptical about his approach, doing an incredibly in depth assessment on absolutely everything (i was only skeptical because that's not how I've been taught), not only did he find restrictions and muscle imbalances that i didn't even know were there, he opened my eyes to whole different side of our profession. The following week after the initial assessment, I got my plan. My God was it detailed, every single issues was being addressed. As Darren said to me "no stone left unturned", I think that sums up his process perfectly. Darren looks at EVERYTHING, not just physical but every avenue of health, that being sleep, nutrition, metabolic health (i could go on and on), all of which play a massive role in recovery, training and overall health. At the start there were a couple of exercises that didn't work well with me, I voiced this and he adapted the plan to my needs. Within a month I already felt my body moving "correctly", not compensating because of pain or fear of worsening my injuries. Weekly check ins and constant messages kept my form perfect, eliciting meaningful progressions rather than abitury progressions that gave up form to increase the weight or reps. This was the same throughout my entire time with Darren, keeping me accountable and making sure my ego of pushing as much weight as possible was put into the back seat. If like me you have a need to train and have struggled with injuries or even just want to optimise your training, I cannot recommend Darren enough. My life has got considerably better since my time with him and I will forever be thankful, he has not only fixed my injuries but has given me the tools to train smartly and safely that I will use for life.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Darren at DMK Rehab for the past 3 months and the difference has been unreal. Before starting, I’d had months of pain in both knees which was affecting my sleep, driving, and day-to-day life. An MRI confirmed a meniscus tear in my left knee, and I also had an ongoing shoulder injury. Darren not only helped diagnose and fully resolve my shoulder issue (I now have full pain-free movement), but he’s completely turned my knee situation around. Before treatment I couldn’t even run 200m without having to stop due to pain — now I’m back running 5km and progressing every week. I’ve even hit a new PB on my back squat. Darren is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and clearly cares about getting long-term results, not quick fixes. I can’t recommend DMK Rehab highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I approached Darren almost a year ago now. I had several pains that ultimately made me think I couldn’t maintain the line of work I was in. After hearing several great reports about Darren I decided to bite the bullet. Straight away Darren was very professional, made me feel at ease and gave me confidence that the pain can be addressed/ resolved. My only intention was to fix the pain with the three month plan and that was it. Needless to say the 3 month rehab plan worked wonders and because of how good I felt I decided to move onto the personal training package. Darren has helped me massively. I’ve never felt as good about the gym in my life and my pains are virtually gone. Highly recommend Darren if you want to pursue more in the gym or if you have multiple pains bothering you. He knows his stuff! Thanks again Darren.

Fantastic experience: Not sure where to start here. Daz is a wizard at what he does, the level of depth and understanding that goes behind his thought process is something I’ve never seen before. On top of this, he has a true passion to help people, and it shows in the way he carries himself and the business. I hope more people get the pleasure of working with him, and I highly recommend that if you are injured you drop him a message - if you are going to get rehab you might as well get it from the best around.

Fantastic experience: I Have Oesteo arthritus in my hip had many consultations with doctors, consultants and medical staff tried everything includeing steriod injections(which didnt last), I came to DMK as my last resort (which i now wish was 1st) and although it was very clear we cant directly solve the problem we could help it move better to become more comfortable in everyday life and thats exactly what we done, with Darrens wealth of knowledge I managed to get back doing everyday things pain free in 3 months!! 100% reccommend! Everything is soo soo simple, you dont just go through the motions, Darren teachs you why and how to do the excercises so you can continue to do them when he is not around. BEST thing I have done for myself this year, sooo thank you massively!

Fantastic experience: When I first started with Darran, I was only hoping to be able to run out of pain and discomfort the odd short run as I felt I was missing out when training with my gym friends. After six months, I am enjoying regular running (pain and discomfort free) and competing in Hyrox competitions (which I thoroughly enjoy) - something I never ever thought possible . Thanks Darran!

Fantastic experience: I first started going to Darran for a rehab package when I had bad patellar tendonitis, I was about to pay for a MRI as I was convinced there was a tear. I was playing a lot of squash at a high level and had to stop playing completly due to the pain. Working with darran to rehab my knee, I am now back playing at an even higher level. I would recommend him very highly to anyone struggling with an injury.

Fantastic experience: Darren at DMK Performance was recommended to me by a friend after I’d been suffering with sciatica for a few months — it was only getting worse. From the start, Darren took the time to go through the different rehab plans he could offer and explained everything clearly. The app was brilliant — the videos were easy to follow and really helped me understand each exercise properly. Darren was patient, supportive, and genuinely cared about getting me back to full fitness. I’m now back training and doing everything I was before my sciatica. Couldn’t recommend Darren highly enough — top bloke and really knows his stuff!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Darran highly enough. After years of dealing with lingering pain from an old back injury and constantly feeling weak and unstable training, Darran went straight into a thorough and holistic assessment, reviewing dietary habits & lifestyle, as well as my physical condition, quickly identifying the issues and how the injuries & issues had manifested and aggravated problems over time. From there, the treatment and exercises were spot on. The plan was challenging but tailored perfectly to my needs, and within weeks I started noticing huge improvements. Now, I’m completely pain-free, my back feels strong and supported, and I finally feel confident and stable when training again. Darran’s knowledge, attention to detail, and genuine care for your progress make all the difference. If you’re struggling with chronic pain, recurring injuries, or just want to move and perform better, do yourself a favour and go see him. Absolute game-changer!

Fantastic experience: One word for this man....legend! Have been to Darran on and off over many years and after ankle ligament surgery I knew I needed someone I trusted to help guide me through the rehab. I felt supported every step of the way with a thorough plan that was tailored specifically to me. The communication from Darran was brilliant and now after 7 months of work, I am fully confident in my ankle and about to head to the himalayas! If I could give him 6 gold stars I would! Thanks pal for getting me back to doing the stuff that makes me me!

Fantastic experience: Was training for a half marathon, and had to stop due to constant knee pain. Visited Darran with this issue. He done a full body assessment and gave me stretching and strength exercises to work on. Coasted the half marathon pain free. Couldn’t rate him high enough, very knowledgeable and thorough in field of work

Fantastic experience: I went to Darren as I had tried physio and lots of other routes without too much success..I had heard off others and seen his Instagram account so reached out to him. It has been the best thing I have done, in 8 weeks he has got me into a position where I am building on the weakness in my back, abs, lower legs and getting them firing to remove pain when I run. I am still a work in progress but he has set me on my way and has been so supportive and making great adjustments weekly. I would recommend him very highly to anyone struggling with an injury that wants to get back up and moving freely again.

Fantastic experience: I had been dealing with chronic back pain for over a year and Darren came highly recommend via my gym trainer. I contacted him and after a good chat and a detailed assessment he started to work on the root cause of my pain. He gave me an easy to follow training program and was available to contact my text, online and in person if I had any issues. I now feel much better, pain levels have decreased massively and recovery times are so much quicker. If like me and you've tried many different types of treatments I would highly recommend giving Darren a call for any ongoing or long-term pain issues.

Fantastic experience: Went to Darren with multiple issues from bjj. Within 3 months made massive progress and feel my body in a much better place following his instruction. Darren identifies where your body is lacking, in order to improve other injured areas. Would certainly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I struggled for years with a ‘tight hamstring’ and one day it gave up and I suffered a pulled hamstring which caused me loads of pain for ages. All the resting, massages and stretching that I was advised by others (including hospital physios), didn’t make much difference and I was still in pain, and unable to train comfortably. I signed up for the 90 day rehab plan with Darran, who’s in-depth assessment found an underactive calf to be the cause of the tight hamstring. The mobility and rehab plan given by Darran made a massive difference to my injury and I can honestly say I haven’t felt tightness in my hamstring since and can run and lift pain free.

Fantastic experience: Darran has been a life saver. Came to hip with a long term injury that flared up pretty badly before going abroad. He completely sorted me out, knew the cause, how to address the symptoms and also how to strengthen weaker areas moving forwards. After 2 sessions pain has stopped and I cannot thank him enough! Would recommend him to ANYONE looking to comeback stronger from injury and become pain free x

Fantastic experience: Working with Darran has helped reduce the pain and discomfort I was experiencing due to a number of long term injuries. I have also come away with a better understanding of what I need to do going forward in my own training. I would definitely recommend DMK to anyone with looking to overcome injury and improve their sports performance

Fantastic experience: What a recommendation Darran was. I was losing hope after several visits over the last 8 years to other osteopaths and advice from medical professionals that my knee was no good and not to run again. I was told about Darran and from the initial assessment through the rehab process his knowledge and understanding was way beyond what I've previously experienced, the result is I've started running again pain free. Throughly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: Suffered long term mobility in my Lower back, hips. Seen loads of physio, chiropractors, osteopaths etc over years. After working with Darren, breaking down my issues, working on each issue my body now works as it should. Moving more freely, pain free,

Fantastic experience: Worked with Darren and couple times over the last 2 years, most recently helped me rehab an issue with my back, gives you everything to do between appointments with him so always improving. Very knowledgeable and helpful would 100% recommend, will always contact Darren if i get an injury

Fantastic experience: Been seeing Darran for about 10 years. Every issue and niggle has been in depth assessed and rehabbed. Regular appointments have kept my professional and sporting career still ticking over. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: 2 years ago my body was broken, I thought it was unfixable. I went to DMK thinking I was wasting my time but I’d still give it a go. 2 years later I’m back competing in my sport, feeling like my body is back to my teens ready for any activity. I can’t thank Darran enough for the incredible knowledge and guidance to give me the full ability of my body back. Picking the right person to work with is so important, I worked with so many people before Darran and never got anywhere but thankfully I fell in with the perfect coach for me. I can not recommend enough, he will change your life like he changed mine if you apply his information.

Fantastic experience: Been working with Darran since early december. Had shoulder issue since september within first 2 sessions on rehab things improved and training becoming enjoyable again

Fantastic experience: Was recommended to Darren through a friend. Started the 90 day rehab program just a few weeks ago and I am already making lots of progress from my injury. Professional and friendly service, would 100% recommend to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Darran since August, and his rehab program has been incredibly beneficial. From the start, he provided valuable insight into my initial injury, and as the sessions progressed, he adapted the plan when it was discovered that the issue might be something different. His knowledge of the subject is excellent, and he listens carefully, responding quickly to any concerns. He tailors the rehab to suit my needs and makes adjustments as necessary. Darran strikes a great balance between supporting the injury and pushing for progress when it's appropriate. He’s a great guy and an even better professional!

Fantastic experience: Before seeing Darran I had been struggling with a groin injury that had prevented me doing any sport or lower body training for almost a year. I came to him with the goal of getting me ready to compete in a Judo competition in 7 weeks time. He first identified what the core problem was (which was not what I thought), then designed an intensive rehabilitation program that addressed the real underlying issues. It was a completely different approach than what I have experienced in the past. There was no massaging and static stretching that had achieved zero results over the previous year, just lots of intense, targeted exercises at home and in our weekly sessions. Darran continually reassessd and develop the program over the 7 weeks and by the time the competition came around I was pain free and ready to compete. He even designed me a tailored warm up routine to ensure I was ready on the day! I haven't had great success with people treating my injuries in the past. However, this was a completely different approach that really sought to address the route cause of the problems, and that's exactly what it did. After one session with Darran it's clear he really understands his profession, and that's why he's able to think outside the box and find the approach that will work for you. The results speak for themselves! Jamie Boyle

Fantastic experience: I reached out to Darran after sustaining a quad strain through football. After a vicious cycle of resting the injury and returning to sport I realised this was going to require specialist help. Darran created a bespoke plan for my recovery with a measured pathway for a safe return to sport. I done a majority of my sessions remotely which could understandably be less effective than being assessed in person. However, this never felt like a disadvantage as he had so much knowledge and passion for what he does I always felt like I was getting the best possible service. Darran would update the plan weekly with new movements and progressions which included video demonstrations for reference. throughout the week he woud be in contact to determine how you were getting on and if you needed any support or help. There were stages of my recovery where he was able to identify other problem areas which were hindering my progress and he adapted the plan accordingly to overcome these. Finding the right physiotherapist like any service can be difficult. However, I couldn't recommend Darran highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Worked with Darran for 90 days on a quad injury. The attention to detail is next level. I had struggled for a couple of years to squat pain free and worked with others, with no effect. In 90 days I’m now barbell squatting pain free with weight I was doing pre injury. I 110% recommend Darran to anyone who is struggling with niggles or pain. Get in contact with him. Thanks again Darran.

Fantastic experience: After over 10 years struggling with lower back pain and flare-ups that had me unable to walk for days at a time, for the first time I’ve seen actual improvement and progress thanks to Darran and his expertise. He’s professional, and explains himself in a way that’s easy to understand. He listened to everything I had to say and left no stone unturned. What’s most important is I always felt comfortable around Darran and trusted him completely in helping me - something I haven’t experienced with previous osteopaths. Usually when my back pain flared up, I’d be in excruciating pain for at least a month before eventually returning to normal. After just two months of rehab work with Darran I had an inevitable flare up, and the pain lasted only a day! After two days I was back to normal as if nothing had happened. Working with Darran has massively improved my quality of life and I recommend him to anyone struggling with injury.

Fantastic experience: Working with Darran has been an all around positive experience from improving mobility, increasing strength, removing pain and offering education in helping maintain a healthy body and lifestyle. He has helped me reach all personal goals set and he is always helping to further improve month by month. The best about

Fantastic experience: Professional services

I can't thank him enough brilliant Oestopath and really assertive and alot of knowledge absolute diamond thank you again mate changed my life around

Fantastic experience: If you suffer with back pain or anything that gives you grief without a doubt darren will fix you. Honestly i cant praise him enough. I was put at ease from the moment I booked the first appointment with him. He’s a Top bloke who takes pride in his work. Thank you again Dar for fixing my back problems

Fantastic experience: I have been attending DMK for months with severe back and neck issues along with other minor injuries. Darran after one visit for deep tissue work and sent home with rehab exercises, I had eradicated my mid back pain that I had for years within 3 weeks. I can now also look over my left shoulder which was impossible for 6months even after several visits with a chiropractor. Darran has a wealth of knowledge, has a great bedside manner and is great at his job. He is also fond of the craic which helps! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I came to Darran with shoulder and knee problems that were really hindering my strongwoman training, especially my deadlift and log press. With a comp looming the pressure was on but Darran's knowledge and experience meant that I started seeing improvement within a couple of weeks. I was so surprised how well things started moving, and reassured by how thorough he was, giving me exercises to do, coming up with training solutions, following up on progress inbetween appointments and being really approachable and supportive. The comp went better than I could have hoped for, and everything still felt good afterwards! I would 100% recommend Darran; it's not often you find someone you can put complete faith in and I'm really grateful for all his help

Fantastic experience: First and foremost Darran really cares about his clients well-being. He explains everything in detail, giving you the tools and techniques during your treatment, from pain management to strengthening those muscles you thought you never needed to. But, he also gives back the confidence you’ve lost from injury, getting your old-self back together again. I highly recommend Darran.

Fantastic experience: I contacted Darren as a powerlifter when I started getting severe pain in my foot to the point I could no longer squat. As lived in NI most of the assessments and sessions were online. He was so experienced and knowledgeable and was able to pinpoint my issues that resulted in the foot pain instantly. He ensured i was getting the most out of the exercises he sent and showed me how to progress as i was able to. He set an excellent rehab programme for me and within time and work with Darren things improved and I am now back getting ready for my next competition with more strengthening my squat has improved so much. Darren was so supportive through the whole time and approachable even between appointments. I am now continuing with the exercises to continue to strengthen. I would not hesitate to contact Darren with any future issues, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: After over 20yrs of competitive martial arts and body building I was going to throw in the towel due to constant pain and lack of mobility,iv been using DMK for about a year now and not only did he fix me, I believe I'm in the best shape of my life and pain free at 47 years of age. I cannot recommend this man enough.

Fantastic experience: Darran is absolutely superb! I have been attending him for years and he always shows a high level of care, knowledge and support to get me functioning as I would like.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant service, very knowledgeable, will continue to recommend to anyone interested in getting help

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend DMK. Professional, knowledgeable and a set of hands, knuckles and elbows that can solve any problems you have with your body.

Fantastic experience: I have suffered with back problems and other aches and pains over a long period of time. I started going to Darren in the hope of getting some relief. Darren quickly diagnosed me and started working on me.Things got a whole lot better in a short period of time. I attend Darren's clinics each month for a tune up.This is a must do for me and this keeps me moving well. He also advises exercises to maintain the work he has done on me. Darren is a very calm and knowledgeable professional who explains in simple terms what way the human body should work and points out the problems I have and what he can do to treat them. I would recommend Darren and have done to anyone who needs help.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Darran now for a few years since the days of him being my powerlifting coach. Darran service is second to none, a wealth of knowledge and a top class friendly service. Darran has also been helping my mother in law who has had terrible back issues, since she has been going to Darran she is now back into her full-time work and getting better every visit. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Extremely knowledgeable osteopath. Darran has been a great help regarding physiological issues I have encountered. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Have been to Darran countless times for issues including minor aches and pains, deep tissue work, nerve issues etc. Darran has helped me with all problems I’d presented, whether that be on-the-day work at his clinic, or through rehabilitation exercises to do at home or the gym. Have recommended him to several friends and family, and will continue to recommend more.

Fantastic experience: Darren is excellent at what he does. Couldn’t recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: Have been attending on a regular basis to help my mobility with my hips as osteoarthritis is starting to set in . Always a great professional service but a bit of friendly chat and banter guaranteed too.

Fantastic experience: Darren is very professional in his role explaining the process in his assessment and treatment He is very pleasant, courteous and respectful and ensures you are at ease during his treatment answering any questions you may have. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant service i have had lower back problems since i was 25 im now 43 so ive been around quite a few sports therapist chiropractors and osteopaths over the years and finally found Dmk and hand on heart can honestly say none of the other services come close to the knowledge and professionalism of Dmk . Had an appointment today after pulling my back a few days ago and was unable to stand upright and was really struggling to get up from a seated position. After one session im 90% pain free and able to stand fully upright. Cant recommend him enough 10/10 service.

Fantastic experience: I have spent over 15 years in the combat sports industry and have seen numerous physios, osteos, chiropractors etc in that time. Darran is one of the best I have ever worked with! If you want a bespoke approach to rehab then Darran is your man. Can’t recommend him enough

Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Darran for about 10 weeks now. I've had issues going back 3 years now with my hip/groin/pelvic area. I was waking up at night in discomfort and some days I'd find myself walking with a limp. It prevented me from training the way I'd like to and squatting comfortably was a thing of the past. Through working with Darran and his specially tailored rehab program I've got comfortable with the basic movements again and no longer wake at night in pain. There's still much work to be done because I let things get so bad. I'd highly recommend working with DMK and don't put it off for so long like me. Do your body a favor and start now.

Fantastic experience: I reached out to Darran as I was still in extreme pain following a should injury whilst playing rugby. Following an initial phone consultation we decided the best course of action was to complete the 6 week rehabilitation package. This included both treatment sessions and 1 to 1 rehabilitation training sessions in a nearby gym. I found the 1 to 1 sessions extremely beneficial where Darran was able to ensure correct technique when completing exercises and that specific muscles were being strengthened. The treatment sessions were then beneficial to free up the muscles worked in the training sessions. The 6 week program provided substantial building blocks for me to get back to the exercises I was doing before my injury. Thanks Darran for all your help

Fantastic experience: I've been training jujitsu now for the last 14 months, and I found that I wasn't strong enough to perform some of the movement's to a good standard in live rolling sessions. Since talking with Darren, he came up with a tailor-made plan to help me with my jujitsu since joining on the his three month plan I have found that my strength increse has been phenomenal doubling in such a short period of time. The online plan has been very easy to navigate and very helpful with the linked videos on how to preform the exercises correctly and with Darren just being the other end of the phone answering any questions I had has been a big help!. I can't thank him enough and the results have been amazing I now feel confident in my ability in training and competing.

Fantastic experience: Started working with darran a few months back after thinking surgery was the only option for my shoulder, even after 2 sessions I was able to carry out tasks I hadn't been able too for months, now 3 months In I'm able to box again competitively which I never thought possible. We are now in the process of getting my hips back to where they were pre shoulder injury. Couldn't recommend darran enough,his knowledge and methods are second to none.

Fantastic experience: I had been struggling with two injuries: tennis elbow and jumpers knee, both due to aging (I’m 45 and the tendons can weaken as you creep into middle age) and overuse in training/sports. I was still training the way I did when I was 21! Following the injuries I had been resting, and having physio for months and was seeing no improvement. At this stage I started looking online for other ways to resolve the injuries and found Darran at DMK performance. Darran had an in depth online consultation with me and then structured a program to enable me to keep training, improving all round strength and fitness, whilst also helping rehabilitate & strengthen the injuries. I’m now entering my 8th week of the program with DMK and I’m feeling in fantastic condition, whilst also seeing great improvements in both injuries. I would highly recommend Darran and the team at DMK. Thanks very much Darran. Miles

Fantastic experience: I snapped my acl in December and suffered terrible pain and lack of mobility after my operation,A friend suggested that I go see Darran to get my knee right, I opted for the 6 week rehab and recently completed it and I can’t thank him enough for restoring the function of my knee and I’m also pain free now. I’d recommend him to anyone who’s had performance related injuries or any injuries that affect their mobility. He’s very well educated and his service has been 100% all the way through

Fantastic experience: Darran has helped me tremendously getting back fully fit into my chosen sport but also helped me understand why I’m doing what we did and when in the stages we were at. Lovely all round guy and couldn’t recommend him enough

Fantastic experience: OUTSTANDING SERVICE I'm an older kickboxer and active person and if it were not for DMK I would still be suffering from a dibilitating injury and without professional intervention for optimum performance who knows where I would be? Right now I"m well out of the pain I was in and coming to the end of a 12 week program of rehab, strength and conditioning from a routine bespoke to me and my goals from Darren at DMK and I'm smashing it. Super grateful

Fantastic experience: After my injury I thought I was never going to be able to use my leg the same way again. But within the first few weeks with Darran I already surpassed my expectations. His vast knowledge on the body really showed with exercise selection and really left no stone unturned.

Fantastic experience: Went to Darren with lower back pain due to motocross and bricklaying , with in three session and following the movements he suggested I was back riding with no issues. 110% would recommend

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend DMK enough! I was having trouble with my quad which was so painful and restricting me using the gym, so I contacted DMK as someone recommend them to me. I had an appointment with Darran who was absolutely amazing and straight away he diagnosed what was wrong with my quad which was my femoral nerve causing me the pain and discomfort in my quad. Darran explained fully what he was going to do and how many treatments I would need and what I would need to do myself to fix the problem after 3 visits it was fully fixed no pain and back to using the gym as normal honestly can’t thank him enough ! Amazing service from start to finish thank you DMK x

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Darran for a couple of months down at his clinic. The premises is always immaculate and welcoming. Darran is a great guy with a vast knowledge and explains everything in layman’s terms. I recently had a 1-1 with Darran to address my squat technique, this has allowed me to further progress my recovery. During the session he was able to identify some areas for improvement and made some minor tweaks. I can now squat pain free which is massive for me, as I have been unable to get under the bar for about 3 years due to knee pain. Darran is very professional in what he does and his passion for training really shows. I would highly recommend DMK to anyone from my mum to competitive weight lifter ️ Great service.

Fantastic experience: Was really struggling with both my calves leading up to my first marathon, has helped me get back on track and nurse the injury and I’m ready to go. Really highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I contacted Darren on the day and he kindly fit me in to his busy schedule to help relieve me of some pain. Utterly professional and a genuinely top bloke. The service was immaculate and though I was only in Swansea for the day, his treatment and technique has me considering travelling in from London regularly, just to book with him. Thanks Daz!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant service
