Derby Cottage Clinic
We will continue to provide surgical grade masks free of charge for use during your appointment. We have the opportunity for Osteopaths and Physiotherapists, especially those with Sonography experience, to join the top-class team in our increasingly busy clinic, with a range of hours from two days a week to full time possible.

We welcome both the newly graduated and experienced practitioners. We offer the best working conditions and full administrative support. Founder of Derby Cottage Clinic Bruce Smart has started his own injury prevention course BodySmart, broadcasting on Zoom. The course contains full information to guide you through a series of low impact exercises which forms the basis for all movements, sporting or otherwise.

After a couple of appointments with Jasper, my long standing back pain is gone. I can’t believe I lived in pain for so long, taking ibuprofen to manage it, having been told 3 years ago by another therapist that it was unlikely to improve any further. And I now understand what exercises I need to do if it gets a bit sore. I’m so impressed with this talented young man!

I have seen Jodielin a few times for physiotherapy after fracturing two spinous processes, I'm so pleased with my increased mobility and decreased pain levels

Bruce was recommended to me, I'd suffered terrible back pain on and off for several years and was told it was scar tissue by my GP. After a thorough investigation into my injury and an examination I was told it was a "rib head rotation" and could be fixed. And it was. Bruce is extremely experienced and knowledgeable and I cannot thank him enough. I just wish I'd gone here years ago. I would thoroughly recommend him.

I see Rachel once a week for tight muscles and alignment and she has done for me in a few short weeks than any other doctor in the last 3 years. Such a welcoming and clean environment as well. Highly recommend!

Attended The Derby Clinic for shockwave treatment on my achilles tendon..I was met by an Osteopath Holly. Who was exceptionally friendly and welcoming and explained everything ro me in detail and during the treatment.It made me feel totally at ease and I felt that even after the first treatment there was some improvement.I can certainly recommend the clinic for its professionalism.

Been visiting Derby Cottage for a few weeks now with different issues - first issue is already sorted after 4 weeks and now well on the way with the second issue. Very happy with the knowledge of my therapist Roberto, who is always super friendly, and always up for a chat! All other staff have been lovely too. Highly recommend Derby Cottage for any injury treatments, whether sport related or just day to day aches/pains/strains.

I first went to Derby Cottage many years ago for a sports injury, and at that first visit I received great feedback and treatment.
I have been back many times since for ‘maintenance’ treatments and have no hesitation in highly recommending Bruce and his team!

The staff at Derby Cottage Clinic was nothing short of amazing. I was lucky enough to receive care for two years before my surgery. It can be very hard trusting someone to make adjustments. I felt very comfortable with Bruce and had full confidence in him. Appointments were always easy to make. Thank you so much Derby Cottage Clinic for everything!

I have recently been to see Bruce at the derby cottage clinic and had amazing service. I suffer with scoliosis and had the corrective surgery 10 years ago. The last year I have suffered with bad back pain in my lower back, I was seeing a physio therapist for 8 months and had no improvement. After seeing Bruce for two sessions I feel completely back to my old self with no pain at all. I'm completely shocked and over the moon with the results. If you suffer with pain don't wait any longer, book in with derby to fix the problem. Will definitely be recommending the Derby Cottage clinic to all my friends

Brad Ray and I love visiting Bruce and Katie at the clinic and are just leaving after this weeks visit! Not only do they relieve us of muscle pain they are lovely people to be around, with fab hospitality. We feel so looked after here!✨ Katie’s massage has helped my lower back pain instantly, ensuring I was comfortable with the pressure and in the… environment! Bruce’s constant work with Brad for all the physio he requires has helped him massively toward his racing career! We wouldn’t go to anyone else. I highly recommend Derby Cottage Clinic for their variety of

The Guys here are AMAZING! highly recommend ! I’ve had a shoulder and neck injury from falling head first of my horse. If it wasn’t for them I’d still be in a lot of pain and would not be able to ride out and complete my work duties to a high standard. I’m now a regular once a fortnight and have been for the past 6 weeks. Thanks again guys ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
