“I was a flabby 41 year old grumpy old man with a bad back, a bad knee and a tendency to do to much or too little on my own when i started at opex. I am now 42, so they can’t fix your age, but they can fix your knee, back, flab, hold you accountable to a routine, and that make you less grumpy, so thanks all!! Your great! I have been to lots of gyms in the past, I found that I failed to regularly make it, or make progression at puregym, and always got injured when put in a crossfit type class of 12 or more people - all doing the same thing, without the right guidance, form, foundations etc. There are lots of options between my house and opex which are cheaper, but I choose to come here as the team are nice and I like having a routine to do when I turn up that is personal to me, focused on what I want, and I have really seen the results. You can’t put a price on your health.”

How Our Injury Rehab Process Works

Step 1: In-Depth Movement Assessment

We begin with biomechanical testing to assess movement restrictions, pain triggers and structural imbalances. This removes the guesswork and builds a clear rehab roadmap.

Step 2: Structured Recovery Coaching

Each session includes coach-supported rehab exercises, mobility work, and progressive strength training—adapted based on how your body responds week to week.

Step 3: Build Back with Confidence

We help you transition from rehab to regular training with gradual load reintroduction, mobility restoration, and improved functional movement patterns.
