I have been using Wokingham Osteopaths regularly for my lower back problems for some years. Initially I saw Kerri many years ago and then I followed her to the Wokingham Osteopaths, and met her husband Matt (also an osteopath) All the osteopaths are amazing with a wealth of knowledge and experience. They’re are always quick to respond when I need to contact, and always try to accommodate an urgent appointment, as well as routine maintenance for my lower back.

I have been going to Wokingham Osteopaths since 2023 and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. I originally came with a shoulder problem caused by a poor wfh set up. Thanks to Matt’s skills & knowledge, I was able to understand the problem and work alongside him to fix it. This pain had been going on for over a year and with the right support, it managed to heal itself without steroid injections, pain medication or surgery. I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend their services!!!

Having recently moved to the area I needed to find a new osteopath in Wokingham. The decision was hurried along when I pulled my back with a recurring issue. I was in so much pain I was struggling to walk as it kept seizing up. Matt managed to fit me in really quickly and took a thorough history of the issue. After the first session I started to feel a big improvement. Then he gave me some really good exercises which have really helped. After about 5 sessions I am relieved of the pain and have stopped going as regularly. However I wouldn’t hesitate to book again if anything flares up or I have any tensions. Really great osteo, easy parking, fair pricing and a genuinely nice person. Thanks for getting me out of pain!

Hurt my back and was barely walking, Matt sorted me out and explained what the issue was. Did the exercises he recommend and after another session I was back to normal. Highly recommend.

Would 100% recommend Matt and Keri. Their advice and service is great. They are amazing at customer care and have always try to help where they can. They have worked wonders on hip pain, pelvic tilts, shoulder stiffness, even vascular massage on the calves and tendinitis.

After months of endless chiropractor and physio appointments with little to no improvement, I finally found Matt who genuinely changed everything for me. From the very first session, they took the time to really listen, understand the root cause of the issue, and explain everything clearly. The treatment has been incredibly effective and helped me get back on track with my running training. Professional, knowledgeable, caring, and genuinely invested in helping their patients - I honestly cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you for the incredible service and support, Matt!

Same day appointment available (emergency as I could not move my neck!). Matt was great, professional and within 2 sessions he had sorted my trapped nerve. Everyone should have osteopathy and I highly recommend this team!

Couldn’t recommend Matt enough. He’s not only lovely, he’s brilliant! Matt has helped my back and neck pain massively in only just two appointments!
Natasa D.
Brilliant team, knowledgeable, skilful, accommodating and pleasant. The members of the family were treated by Matt, Keri and Alex throughout the years, with positive outcome every single time! Highly recommended.

I had upper and lower back pain from poor posture, sport etc. After my first appointment with Keri, I was completely revived. My quality of life has improved a 1000%, Keri has made a massive difference, my back feels like new - i have so much mobility back. Keri's knowledge and expertise has been so helpful and I cant thank her enough.

Not only is Matt very knowledge and skilled… he excels in listening to his patient and working with them to long achieve long term health. I would recommend him without hesitation.

I saw Keri for a baby cranial osteopath session with my 9 month old. He hadn't been sleeping well and was struggling with his digestive system. Sleep had started to improve but I wanted to check in to see if things were ok, especially as he was forceps delivery. I'd had 5 recommendations for how great baby cranial osteopathy was and 3 for this clinic in particular! Lovely to have a whole hour and not feel rushed. Keri was lovely. My boy enjoyed her company too and even had a little giggle during treatment. She reassured me that everything was looking and feeling great with him and she was able to help get his digestive system going as well. To the extent that he pooped every day after we saw her! Came away feeling happy, reassured and with a happy baby boy too. Treatment aside, as a new mum, any form of reassurance means so much. Really glad I went and will call on them again if need be. Easy to get there, park, friendly reception. All round great experience.

I had my first session with Matt last week, I'd been suffering with pain in my left shoulder for the last 7 weeks but couldn't pinpoint exactly where the pain was. After 10 minutes or so Matt figured out it was my upper chest which was making my shoulder area tight so he worked on it for the session. He was able to resolve the issue in one session. 10/10 recommend.

Keri was so helpful, she helped identify tension in the tummy which was causing a lot of distress and helped relieve this which has lead to a much happier baby! She also assessed feeding and gave us some really helpful advice.
Carolyn C.
By far the best Osteopath and sports masseuse in the area. Always know just how to help and get us back on track in no time.

Super friendly, super knowledgeable, just all round super 😀

I had 3 sessions with Matt for lower back pain and cancelled my 4th appointment because I'm now feeling so much better. Thorough assessment to explore the causes of my pain, and my progress at each appointment. Treatment was helpful on each occasion in reducing pain as well as very helpful exercises which I am continuing, and lifestyle advice to avoid triggers. I will definitely be going back again if I have any issues in future. I thought it was very good value for money and appointments available at convenient times. Highly recommended.

I had a pregnancy massage with Kerry today and it was exactly what I needed! I’m a 32 weeks pregnant and a hair dresser so my body definitely needed a bit of TLC. Kerry has magic hands I feel brand new! She made me feel at ease straight away and was very calm and caring. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about getting a massage, it’s the best I’ve felt all pregnancy! Also very reasonable priced. Thank you Kerry.
W S.
Visited for the first time today after a neck injury and couldn't be happier with the service. Keri was incredibly friendly, professional, and made me feel at ease right away. She took the time to explain everything clearly and the treatment was very effective. I felt a noticeable improvement even after just one session. Would definitely recommend!

After a traumatic forceps delivery, our baby was left with tension in his neck that led to ongoing reflux issues and general discomfort. We were emotionally and physically exhausted, watching our newborn struggle and feeling helpless. From the moment we met Kerri, we knew we were in safe hands. Her warmth, professionalism, and incredible knowledge immediately put us at ease. She treated our baby with such gentle care and intuition. Amazingly, after just one session, we saw a complete transformation. Our baby was more relaxed, able to turn his head comfortably, and the reflux symptoms began to ease almost immediately. It was like meeting a brand-new baby — calm, content, and finally comfortable in his little body. We are beyond grateful to Kerri for her extraordinary care. Her work made a world of difference to our baby and to us as new parents. If you’re considering treatment for your little one, we cannot recommend Kerri highly enough.

Have had various back and shoulder issues over the years, such as really bad lower back pain caused by tight glutes causing back to spasm, to intense shoulder and arm pain caused by a rebellious 1st rib pinching nerves it’s not supposed to. Each time Matt has successfully diagnosed and been able to get me functioning and pain free again after several careful sessions of administering his magic. Cannot fault Matt, an absolute saviour if like me for whatever reason you find yourself in pain and without any doubt the go to osteopaths in the area, keep up the good work fixing people like me.

I found Matt at Wokingham Osteopath after a friend recommended him and he was brilliant. He saw me very quickly and fixed the issue in just one session. I was taking pain killers daily for a back issue that improved almost instantly after seeing him. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!

Frequently Asked Questions

How many treatments will I require?

The number of treatments that you will require depends upon:

  • The age of the injury
  • The age of the patient
  • The nature of the injury
  • Previous medical history

and a variety of other factors. We like to see our patients a couple of times to give the body a chance to react to treatment. If you are happy with your progress we will continue treatment. Most cases take 4-6 sessions on average but this is not a guarantee. Some patients may come in for a top-up session if they feel symptoms coming back in the future.

Please be assured that we will never block book patients, treatments are booked in session-by-session unless you request it specifically.

What can I expect on my first appointment?

Firstly the Osteopath will take your case history, asking questions about your presenting complaint, the previous occurrences, your medical history and then some.

Then, with you either in your underwear or loose clothing, the Osteopath will examine you, where you will be asked to perform a series of movements. This will give them an idea of how the body is moving normally. Then the passive examination will take place with you reclining or lying on the treatment couch and as relaxed as possible. The passive examination takes the muscles out of the equation and the Osteopath will be able to examine the joints of the body more efficiently. There may be some clinical tests which take place, like reflex testing, taking your blood pressure and others.

When the Osteopath has examined you they will give you a diagnosis and discuss how it may have occurred. They will then talk about the treatment that they would like to perform and with your consent, proceed. You are free to withdraw consent at any point during the treatment and the Osteopath will stop.

Please bring with you any recent reports from scans you may have had if pertinent to the condition about which you wish to see us.

Who will treat me?

We currently have four Osteopaths working at Wokingham Osteopaths & Massage; Matthew Devonport, Keri Devonport, Alexander Evans and Mo Al-Nabhani. Suzy Holmes-Beddow provides top-tier Sports Therapy and Sports Massage.

All therapists are registered with the required governing bodies, fully insured as well as being highly qualified and experienced. Our Osteopaths have a combined total of nearly 60 years experience of treating patients.

Do I require a GP referral?

No you do not require a GP referral. Osteopaths are Primary Healthcare Practitioners so you can refer yourself. Just call us on 0118 380 0385 and discuss your case with one of our principle osteopaths, Matt Devonport or Keri Devonport, to see if treatment is appropriate for you.

Does Wokingham Osteopaths & Massage accept health insurance patients?

Yes, we do. Please be aware that you will need to confirm with your health insurance provider that the therapist you wish to see is registered with them.

Matt Devonport is registered with most healthcare insurance companies including Aviva, Cigna, Vitality, and WPA. Please be aware that you may need pre-authorisation from your healthcare insurer to first, they then will give you either a budget or a set number of treatments. Please note that it is clinic policy to accept payment from patients and provide receipts for reimbursement by the health insurance company.

We are also able to provide paid invoices for patients seeking reimbursement from the company’s cashplans such as Medicash and the like.

Does treatment hurt?

Ideally, no but the nature of our job involves discovering the cause of pain and we may need to ask patients to move in certain ways to help us to diagnose the issue.

We aim to make treatment as pain-free as possible and work within your comfort tolerances. Some treatments may be temporarily slightly irritating but patients are always made aware that if the technique being used is too uncomfortable then they can tell us to stop and we will do so immediately.

What side effects are possible?

The side effects that may occur depend upon the nature of the injury. Generally speaking the area may be tender after treatment or the previous symptoms may be aggravated temporarily, especially if the injury is inflammatory in nature.

If the injury is muscular then patients are recommended to use heat, if the issue is inflammatory we recommend patients to use heat and ice, alternating between the two for half an hour. This is known as hydrotherapy.

How soon will I be seen?

We provide treatments 5 days a week including 3 evenings as well as alternate Saturdays. We are normally able to fit patients in the same week that they call but this depends on the day they call. If we are not able to fit you in within a decent time frame we can add you to our waiting list and offer the next appointment that becomes available. If you cannot find a suitable appointment time on the online booking form please call us as we have better control over the booking system and may be able to open up a slot for you.

What payment methods does Wokingham Osteopaths accept?

Wokingham Osteopaths are able to accept card payments and cash. Unfortunately we are unable to accept BACS payments or cheques.

May I bring a chaperone?

All patients are welcome to bring one family member from the same household to act as a chaperone, unfortunately we are unable to provide one. All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
