I first came to see Dev two years ago with constant head aches. Upper vertebrae in the neck was leading to muscle tightness and irritating a nerve causing the headache. Acupuncture and osteopathy helped rid of my symptoms.I felt lively and full of energy. Now I see him twice a year and remain symptom free.

Kenton osteopaths have proved to me that there are some great osteopaths out there.I have had two periods of treatment there and the results have been fantastic,restoring normality to my life.From diagnosis to treatment to everyday-life instruction,you will find that everything that has been done on your behalf will work effectively towards your recovery.I only need to recommend one osteopaths clinic to my friends and colleagues.

I am a keen weight trainer but kept on injuring my low back and hamstrings. This was brought on by faulty squatting technique.I was recommended to Dev by one of the members in the gym. He identified poor ankle flexibility to be the main cause of my symptoms.I was given a range of flexibility excercises. I feel a lot better now and pushing heavier than ever before.

I was suffering from low back pain since 2007.Countless medication and GP referrals the pain did not subside.I was recommended to see Dev by a friend .He diagnosed a pelvic tilt caused by poor abdominal muscle and weak hamstring muscles from a previous injury.He not only corrected the tilt but also gave me a series of exercises to prevent the condition from returning. Dev's pleasant , easy going manner makes you comfortable to ask him anything.

I suffered from intense period pains ever since I can remember. Acupuncture and structural analysis of my low back and pelvis, together with a correct diet was of enormous benefit. I would recommend Dev to anyone.

I would like to say a big thank you to Dev.I first came to see him complaining of severe low back pain and sciatica.Prior to this surgery was my only option.With the help of osteopathy and acupuncture I was back on my feet within a few weeks.I was prescribed a range of exercises to improve my core strength and haven't looked back since.
