Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about Kenton Osteopaths:

A Long-Standing Practice Combining Osteopathy and Acupuncture

Established in 1986 and located on Kenton Road, Kenton Osteopaths has built a strong reputation over decades of practice. The center distinguishes itself by offering a comprehensive combination of Osteopathy and Acupuncture under one roof without extra cost. The team is thoroughly trained in both disciplines, utilizing techniques such as mobilisation, deep tissue massage, electrotherapy, and specific Osteopathic manipulations to address patient needs. This dual approach allows for treatments that can be combined or used individually to restore health and relieve discomfort.

Expertise in Pain Relief and Injury Recovery

Patients frequently highlight the practitioners' ability to accurately identify the root cause of pain and improve mobility. Reviews mention successful outcomes for a variety of conditions, including lower back pain, neck stiffness, sciatica, and sports-related injuries. Many visitors note significant improvements after just a few sessions, with some describing the experience as "life-changing." The center is particularly noted for its effectiveness in treating chronic issues that may have resisted previous treatments elsewhere, helping patients return to their daily activities and hobbies with greater ease.

Trusted, Honest, and Patient-Centered Care

A recurring theme in patient feedback is the honesty and integrity of the practitioners. Unlike some commercial models, the team is praised for not pushing unnecessary treatment packages. If a patient is improving, they are advised to reduce the frequency of visits, prioritizing the patient's well-being and financial sense over profit. Patients appreciate the clear explanations of their conditions and the honest assessment of whether a problem can be treated. This transparency builds significant trust, with many long-term clients recommending the center to friends and family.

Personalized Treatment and Empowerment

Beyond hands-on therapy, the center emphasizes patient education and self-care. Practitioners are commended for providing tailored exercise programs and advice on posture and lifestyle changes that help maintain progress between visits. This empowering approach helps patients manage their own health, whether for recovery from an acute injury or for long-term maintenance of back and shoulder health. The staff is described as calm, friendly, and highly professional, offering a supportive environment where patients feel heard and cared for. Even outside of sessions, the team is noted for being accessible, often providing guidance via text to support the patient's recovery journey.

Fantastic experience: I have spondylosis and have had a lot of issues with my back, causing lots of pain tightness and in general just being uncomfortable. Within the first few sessions I’ve felt the biggest difference and I feel a lot more comfortable and at ease with my condition. I feel I can move better in my excercise and don’t wake up with any pains or aches which used to be a daily occurrence. Dev is so calm and explains things that you can do outside of the treatment. Hands down the best osteo I’ve ever been to! Highly recommend

ashahab1000 Published on Google

Fantastic experience: To be honest. I feel bad that I have left writing this review late. Last year dev saw to my knee problem. He really listened to my concern and wanted to get to the root of the problem. He seems very learned in the field. He is very polite and professional in his approach. What is amazing is that even after my treatment I texted him and he kept giving advice.

Fantastic experience: I met Dev many years ago 1996, i was under immense stress, back pain, not even realizing it, GP and hospitals didn't help at all, was at my wits end!, he literally sorted me out to the point "life changing" pain went, never told me at the time what i was suffering, did a fantastic job, also recommended family and friends, great results, not commercially biased and effective treatment, and very reasonable prices, he's objective and the best with his approach, i cannot fathom the negative comments, don't be put off"go for it" to me hes the best, he wont give you the hard sell, he's reliable and straight forward, i experienced acupuncture, manipulation, Dev thank you, you helped me, i will never forget! To anyone reading this "give him a go" nothing to loose, Nev

Fantastic experience: In a lot of pain around my shoulder and neck - Dev agreed to see my very early on Saturday morning. So much better Saturday evening. Such a very special person with such special qualities of healing.

martin oakley Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I went into Dev, hardly not walking with the pain in my neck and came out walking on air, it took two sessions for the pain to completely go, Dev is very professional and caring. I’m thinking of going every three months just to maintain my long back neck and shoulders as this is where I carry all my stress!

May Lee Published on Google

Negative experience: I called and asked Dev (the practitioner) if he provided Scalp Acupuncture for stroke recovery to aid with motor function and he said ‘Yes’. This was a lie and after two sessions when I told him I wasn’t coming back and why - he blanked me. You are placed on a couch in a small room and told to relax whilst he is sitting right next to you answering and making telephone calls and he makes No Effort whatsoever to speak in a quieter tone . He also asked me a lot about marijuana and did I know where to get some . Don’t waste your money

Nirali Patel Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I was getting massages every month for my back and shoulder with great pain for years. However, after seeing dev I no longer need to do this. Shoulder pain is very minimal now and dev has taught me how to do some exercises at home. Great service and at a very fair price. Thanks dev, nirali

Di Hurley Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have received treatment from Devi for different conditions over many years, including lower back and shoulder. He has always been very professional and knowledgeable - I completely trust his judgement and he will always tell you honestly if he can’t help with a particular problem. I’m a very physically active person and he has helped me to keep doing the activities I love such as dancing, cycling, running etc although I am now well into my sixties. I have also recommended him to several friends who have been equally pleased with his service. His fee is extremely reasonable which also helps. He is one of the ‘good guys’!

Fantastic experience: Has eased the pain

Minal V Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I suffered a bulged disc over 5 years ago and was in so much agony. I could barely walk, sit or stand. Upon a family recommendation I visited Dev, who after a few months of treatment had me back on my feet again. As I am quite an active person, and also train in Martial Arts, Dev is my go to person whenever I have any issues. He has shown me how to stretch out my back, and has given me some basic self treatment tips, so thankfully my visits are not too frequent. He is honest with his advise and therefore I always recommend him when friends and colleagues have any back issues.

Jayshree Mistry Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I had a leg injury last year and this had a big impact to my well being as I was not able to walk. I checked if Kenton Osteopath Clinic was still active. I last had treatment for a neck injury in 2005, I was fully cured. I am pleased I was able to get treatment sessions. The acupuncture treatment from Dev Shukla has helped me hugely. I have made a good progress and can climb stairs with ease. (Which the local physio clinic weren't able to cure after on going treatments for 8mths and no progress which left me in hobbling in total disappointment) I would highly recommend Dev!

Chetan Savani Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I had suffered from back pain and muscle spasms for a long time and after getting treatment from other specialists I just did not seem to be improving and had to keep going back for more treatment every few weeks. A friend recommended that I should go and see Dev and I am so glad that I did. After just a few sessions the pain was greatly reduced and I was standing up straight. Dev explained to me that my problem was that my spine did not have enough support and that was why I was suffering. He showed me some exercises to increase the support around the spine and strengthen my back. I have not looked back since. Thank you Dev. I have recommended Dev to a number of people and the feedback has always been positive.

Vinni Uberoi Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dev has been my go to person over the last 20 years whenever I have had any issues with my back and neck. He is highly professional and knowledgeable in his field of work and manages to find the underlying cause of the problem. He is clear about whether or not he can treat any issues and will only recommend you book further appointments if necessary. I would highly recommend him.

Naveen Puskur Published on Google

Negative experience: Absolutely waste of time and money. Honestly my shoulder pain increased after his electric shock treatment. Acupuncture treatment didn’t help even 1% of it. Would not recommend at all.

Kenton Osteopaths
Kenton Osteopaths

Dear Naveen, I am sorry that you feel that you have wasted your time and money. I did what I thought was best for you. When you first visited me you were in a considerable amount of pain. On your second visit I used Acupuncture, which I thought would be more beneficial. I have used electrotherapy and Acupuncture for the condition you presented with, on many of my patients. Naveen I am genuinely sorry that your symptoms have worsened. I do not feel comfortable, feeling that I have taken your money and wasted your time.

Positive experience: It is what it says on the tin

Marie Foley Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I am really happy with the results so far. Dev is knowledgeable and professional. I’ve been suffering from back pain for a while and within the first session he located the issue and after three appointments the pain has massively reduced. He uses a mix of chiropractic and acupuncture techniques which seems to be doing the trick. I would highly recommend Dav to anyone looking to relive and erridicate back pain.

Andrew Miller Published on Google

Fantastic experience: The first time I met Dr. Shukla was in early 2008. I had chronic back ache to the fact that I could not sit down , let alone walk. When I tried to walk I must have looked like a 90 year old man, hunched over and taking a long time to make each step. I tried 2 chiropractors before seeing Dr. Shukla. After the first, which was in the morning, I was left in more pain than before the treatment, so much so that I telephoned that practice and they offered my a further treatment in the afternoon free of charge but this did nothing to help me. After my visit to the second chiropractor I was in so much pain that I could barely make it back to my car. I decided that something different had to be done and I looked through the Yellow Pages to find someone that could help, which is where I found Dr. Shukla. My Father-in-Law drove me to my first visit to Dr. Shukla and I immediately gained confidence that I had finally found someone who knows what they are doing and they know how to treat me. The reason being was that he did NOT treat me. Firstly he said that I was too bad to treat and that I would not be charged for my visit as it was purely a consultation. In addition, he advised me how I should be resting and in what position to assist the recovery, so that I could improve and then receive treatment. Dr. Shukla was the first person to advise me of how my problem was diagnosed and in which position I should be lying to aid recovery. Therefore I was not to sit at any stage, as this was adding to my problems. After 2 weeks I returned to the Clinic for acupuncture and the rest is history. The healing process was very speedy and since that time I have regular monthly treatment and have had the least amount of back problems in the period since using acupuncture. It is incredible that I would never have thought of using acupuncture, but it was a “last resort” and now my attitude is that I cannot function as well without it.

Chetan Patel Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I injured my back playing golf and was recommended Dev for treatment. I found him to be professional and precise with diagnosing my injury. After I was treated he gave me a set of exercises to stabilize the pelvis and strengthen my lower body. I am much improved and more importantly able to play golf again.

Ekta Kaur Ross Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend this practice. Dev has an incredible ability to locate the source of your pains, reduce it significantly and drastically improve the quality of your life within the first couple of sessions. I have been to many complementary practitioners in my life and no one can compare to the positive experience you get here. I drive 45 minutes to visit this practice because it is truly worth it and for every pound you spend here. Thank you!

Jay Khatri Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dev is incredible, I had lower back pain with a trap nerve and on my second session my pain had decreased and movement was nearly 100 percent. I would recommend Dev to anyone suffering back pain.
