This can range from hip problems in the early stages to symphysis pubis disorder and lower back pain in the later stages. We use gentle articulation of certain joints, soft tissue (massage) techniques, stretches and exercises to relieve patients of their issues.

I have been struggling with neck pain for just over 10 years following a car accident. Mo at Wokingham Osteopaths has helped to reduce the pain and increase the movement I have in my neck. It has not felt this good since I started suffering 10years ago. Mo is the first person to listen and not just write me off because I have a desk job, which yes is part of it but he listened to recognise it was not just that. Thank you Mo!

I have Sarcoidosis that very often causes the muscles and tendons in different joints to become extremely painful. The last event was my shoulder that got so bad that I could not sleep. I tried different doctors and physios all without luck for 2 months. Eventually I saw Mo and within 2 sessions my should was 90% improved. I will now only go see him, and can highly recommend him.

As a Fibromyalgia sufferer it is difficult to find a treatment and clinician that can help, Matt at Wokingham Osteopath and Massage listened to me and respected the fact that fibro sufferers expirance pain differently to most unaffected people.Matt managed to fit me in while I was in crises with a server fibro flare-up nearly a year ago and helped me get back to a manageable state after a few treatments. I now see Matt for maintenance and would not consider seeing anyone else out of Wokingham Osteopath and Massage.Matt and his team are friendly, respectful, and patient focused.Thank you Matt for giving me my life back!!

I was recommended Alex's services after I'd had a head injury due to an accident which left me with limited breathing through my nose, a stiff neck and various other areas of pain and swelling. I was able to get a 'same day' appointment and there was a noticeable improvement in my breathing and neck after the first appointment.I highly recommend Alex as I felt comfortable during the consultation and treatment and I am now well on the way to recovery thanks to his services.

I have found Matt's service at Wokingham Osteopaths & Massage to be efficient, professional, respectful and most importantly - effective. I am happy to recommend him and his colleagues to anyone struggling with back or hip injuries or aches!

We saw Keri for a combined cranial osteopath and infant feeding session. Keri was very supportive, listened and gave us valuable personalised advice which has made breast feeding much easier and less painful. Would highly recommend.

We had a really good experience with Kerri in treating my baby boy. She was very knowledgeable and he warmed to her straight away. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Wokingham Osteopaths with any future treatment needs.

I've been visiting Matt for osteopathic treatment for a few years now, and my experience has been consistently outstanding. Most recently, it was for severe back pain which was addressed quickly. Matt has an exceptional ability to ease pain immediately and also provides his patients with at-home stretches and exercises to ensure long-term benefits. His professional yet friendly approach makes each visit a genuinely pleasant experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch osteopathic care! Wouldn't go anywhere else! Thank you!

I recently visited Matthew for upper back pain and migraine issue. With just one sitting, he alleviated all the pain that I had for sometime. Thanks Matthew.

I just wanted to say a huge thanks to Mo and Matt!I have been suffering with panic attacks/anxiety for months due to long covid, side affects of a beta blocker and as a result great tension builded up in pretty much all the muscles especially my neck/legs.I started with my journey with a chiropractor but after 7-8 sessions I had no improvement at all.After that I found the clinic via google so reached out to Matt and he offered help, was able to book me in with Mo for the next day!I had about 4-5 sessions by now and my condition significantly improved.These guys are really professional, friendly and I always feel comfortable/relaxed when visiting them.I would give 10 stars and once again thank you for Mo and the team!

Took my 8 week old baby here for massage and treatment, and have had good results from the two sessions, she’s more content and happy. Many thanks!!

Such a great practice.Matt fitted me in so he could help to relieve my severe back pain as soon as possible. He then gave me gentle exercises in between visits and by the 2nd appointment I was already able to move much easier and with a significant reduction in pain.My pain is almost gone but I know I can phone up and will be seen as soon as possible.

Just want to say thank you Marh for a great job taking away my pain in just 2 sessions. I went in with severe back pain which I have been suffering from for a few years, I have seen a few different clinics. And they never really stopped the pain. sometimes I’m able to walk on my own, and it took Math 2 sessions 5 days apart and bye the 6 day, i felt like a new man.Big respect to Math @ Wickingham, Osteopaths & Massages for a great job 👏 very informative, friendly, and I believe affordable, in the end, what matters most When you’re in pain is to get relief 💯. Thanks so much:

I had my treatment with Mo who was engaging and knowledgeable. He identified my issues immediately and by the end of my first treatment, I was largely pain free. The amazing thing was that I remained pain free for days afterwards.I’d highly recommend the team at Wokingham Osteopaths and Massage.

Cannot recommend enough so far!I’m suffering with sciatica on the back of a diagnosis of stenosis and facet joint syndrome and waiting for further diagnostic investigations with a 12-24 month NHS waiting list. I have been for 2 sessions so far with Alex and I can now lie on my back without my knees being bent. It is making an enormous difference in easing the constant pain particular at night.

Couldn't recommend a more professional and friendly osteopath! My whole family's been treated at one time or another with nothing but glowing reviews😊

so where should I start from... Matt has been absolutely spectacular as a professional and passionate osteopath with utmost care and treatment focused attention on his patients. I initially went for my back ache and sciatic pain as I have a chronic sacral vertebral issue. After a few sessions (literally like two session fortnight apart) my back was brand new. Then as a sportsman and a doctor myself, things never stop ... shoulder spur along with neck and then again the solution was Matt and his magical osteopathy. For the last one year, I have been visiting here sometimes once a month and if I need proper MOT done then even fortnightly and I can assure the readers that this family run business is awesome. My wife has had wonders with Kerry in terms of relieving her frozen shoulder which in medical terms cannot be thawed before 12-18 months and here is my wife with frozen shoulder started to thaw in 3-4 months and perfectly able to lift her hand and do stuff within 6-8 months. I would highly recommend them as osteopaths. Good, High skill Osteopaths are hard to find and we are lucky to have them here in Wokingham. Thank you Matt, Kerry and your team for being so wonderful every time.

Excellent osteopathy clinic. Matt sought to find a diagnosis for my discomfort. After having seen numerous other osteopaths/physios/massage therapists all massaging out a shoulder muscle for Matt to determine it’s a rib and it one session solve the issue! Incredible skills and excellent service. Highly recommended!

Martin Cox

Very impressed with the initial consultation, their professionalism, and most importantly the treatment. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Matt took charge of my years old neck & shoulder pains and has lessened the restrictiveness in my neck and eased the uncomfortableness that I have just 'put up' with for years more than I could have imagined. I highly recommend them !!

I seeked Matt’s help after receiving a lower back injury at work. From the first appointment Matt listened to my problem and was committed to help me get back to normal. Throughout the course of the treatment Matt was always on hand to help and offer guidance. The treatment involved a variation of massage, manipulations and home stretches. After about 6 weeks of treatments I was back up and running as normal. I would not hesitate to seek Matt’s help again in the future and would highly recommend Wokingham Osteopaths to anyone who needs it!

I have been seeing Matthew for some years now, my previous osteopath retired. Over the years Matthew has kept my mis-alignments tuned, I may crawl in to the surgery and walk out. As a qualified therapist myself I find we can communicate effectively to get the best possible out come. My family also consult Matthew and Keri.

Keri was very approachable and friendly and listened well to all the issues we had with our son’s feeding. Keri was thorough with her assessment. We would definitely recommend to anyone experiencing breastfeeding problems.

Laura Berry

1695818080

We saw Keri when my little boy was just over 3 months. She helped us identify the issues with his feeding and with gentle coaching and support we were able to continue breastfeeding with confidence. Her feeding knowledge and massage techniques were so helpful for us and I would say that after our appointments my mental health definitely improved. I cannot thank Keri enough for helping my son feel more comfortable and supporting me to keep breastfeeding. I now intend to keep going until he decides he is ready to stop, something I didn't think would be possible before.

I highly recommend Matt, I went to him following sciatica and back problems. In just a few visits I felt more myself. Since then my husband has been seeing him and he says Matt has really worked magic on his long-term back and leg problems.

Lou Paynter

I’ve had 4 trapped nerves in 3 years, seeking help from various different places and professions. Matt was highly recommended to me, so I reached out with trapped nerve number 4. He quickly diagnosed the correct unhappy muscle causing the nerve issue and started working on it. It’s since improved dramatically and I’m able to both sleep throughout the night and move without being in so much pain.I highly recommend Wokingham Osteopath and can’t thank them enough.

2nd visit to Suzy for a sports massage. She is excellent and is helping me sort out issues with tightness in my muscles. I have booked 2 more appointments and will be visiting her on a regular basis from now on.

Lauren Squire

As a wedding photographer with back issues due to a motorsport injury in my 20s, I pretty much owe my career to Matt and the team at this point. Their treatments are incredibly effective for whatever new problem I bring to them, and despite most of my flares being unpredictable, they always make me feel like I'm a priority when trying to find me a slot without much notice.Matt is a superstar, and I enjoy the interesting conversation along with the great osteopathy! In his latest miracle work, my neck 'pinged' and started spasming on Friday morning, I managed to get an appointment within 3 hours, and by Friday afternoon I was on my way to shoot a 2-day wedding. THANK YOU!

Great service from Matt. After a recent neck and back injury, Matt resolved the problem after two sessions.

Amber Rose

Keri is a fantastic, caring and considerate osteopath. My 5 month old seemed to have limited mobility in her neck which we felt was preventing her from rolling properly - after a couple of sessions with Keri her neck mobility is much improved and she was rolling straight after! Keri has a gentle, patient approach and takes the time to find out all context and history before treatment. Thank you for your help Keri.

Abbie Davenport

1689059902

Matt is a fantastic Osteopath, he put me at ease from the first appointment and quickly identified the root of my issues. We worked together over the next 6 weeks, and I would say I’m pretty much where I want to be now. I will continue to visit every couple of months to ensure I don’t slip back. I absolutely recommend Wokingham Osteopaths, just as they were strongly recommended to me!!

Tracy Knight

I cannot recommend Wokingham Osteopaths highly enough. They are a thoroughly professional and helpful team and I have used their services on a number of occasions for my own injuries as well as using them for family and making recommendations to friends.

I've struggled for 35 years with pain management for neck and sciatic injuries sustained in late teens and early twenties. I just wish that I could have found a sports therapy/massage practitioner like Suzy all those years ago to support my rehabilitation. Her professionalism, anatomical knowledge and precision massage techniques have brought immediate and lasting relief during some intense episodes. Her no nonsense, fearless, deep tissue massage treatments, along with her practical rehabilitation advice, have been nothing short of miraculous in helping me permanently break repetitive cycles of chronic pain and take positive steps to strengthen and prevent. Simply can't recommend highly enough for anyone suffering pain in any part of the body.

Hayley Salmon

Professional and knowledgeable. Kerri and Matt helped with an old back injury that had resurfaced and how to change my habits to keep it fixed. Since my change of job, Matt took over from Kerri due to hours of work, and both have been brilliant with my treatment and easy to get on with. Definitely recommend both Kerri and Matt.

Craig Coggan

1682242751

After just 1 session Matt was able to find the problem and reduce the symptoms of pain drastically. Further appointments to follow, in confidence of getting back to normal. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a reputable Osteopath.

Matt is a miracle worker!I had been signed off work for weeks, unable to drive and could barely walk. I’d had countless drs appointments, treatments with a different chiropractor and was on the strongest painkillers possible.Nothing was helping!I reached out to Matt and he called me back within minutes, booked me in the very next day and after just one session things started to feel better and what I had been suffering with for over a month was treated after just 3 sessions.It wasn’t just the treatments that helped my recovery. Matt recommended stretches to do in between appointments and even checked in on WhatsApp to see how I was doing.He is just a lovely, kind, supportive miracle worker with a brilliant sense of humour too!I can’t recommend his services enough

Alex Fernandez-Page

1677089787

Can’t recommend Matt enough!!!! Friendly, professional and all round just a great experience. No pushing for the next appointment, explained every step and set out a plan of action that suited me. After years of trying different places this is by far the best osteopath I have been too. Thanks Matt!!!

Would really recommend - I took my 3 week old baby for some cranial osteopathy sessions and feeding support. Keri was really friendly and very knowledgeable and really supported me on my breastfeeding journey. After 3 sessions, we have got on top of the feeding problems and Keri’s advice and support was invaluable!

Charlotte Heape

Highly recommend Wokingham Osteopath. I was awoken at 3am to excruciating pain in my shoulder and thankfully found Alex had an appointment later in the day! Such a friendly, calm experience. Didn’t try and sell me block bookings, only what I needed and no pressure or arm twisting to make me book. Really really pleased with my experience

Franco Boeri

Excellent. Matt is very knowledgeable, friendly and creates a very relaxed environment, while providing first class service with lots of advice on preventing as much as treating the issue. Would surely recommend to anyone.

Camaron Tuffee

Absolutely brilliant service, Matt is a very friendly and knowledgeable Osteo who helped sort out my back and neck pain. They put me at ease, and addressed not only the issues I was having but also the causes and ways to avoid and deal with these outside of treatment. Would 100% recommend to anyone having any issues with pain mobility or soreness, amazing service.

emma Perry

I’ve been visiting Matt for years now, initially for a back complaints but after being diagnosed with Osteoarthritis I’ve been under his care again recently. I cannot recommend Matt and his lovely team enough, knowledgeable, professional with lots of follow up care and advice. Thank you!
