Tired of waking up with that same stiff, nagging ache?
You’ve tried painkillers, hot packs, even ‘waiting it out’ – yet the discomfort is still there, affecting your work, your sleep, and your mood. At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, our expert physiotherapists help you ease daily neck pain without relying on endless medication or risky procedures – so you can move freely, sleep better, and enjoy life again.
With over 30+ qualified practitioners and a track record of helping thousands across Kent, you’ll be in safe, experienced hands from your very first visit.
You might have hoped it would ‘just sort itself out’ with time. Maybe after a good night’s sleep, a few days of rest, or some painkillers from the chemist. But weeks turn into months, and instead of easing, the stiffness, aching, or sharp twinges are still there. Sometimes they are even worse than when it first started.
It’s frustrating. You start asking yourself, “Why me? Why now? And why is it still here?” The truth is, neck pain rarely disappears completely without the right kind of help.
Many people come to us after months of trying different things with little or no relief. Some were told by their GP to rest and take painkillers. Others tried heat packs, neck supports, or the occasional massage. A few even stopped certain activities, thinking rest was the safest option.
The problem is, these approaches may provide temporary comfort but they do not address the underlying cause. Without targeted treatment, the pain often returns or becomes more persistent. At Manor Clinic, we focus on finding and treating the root of the problem so you can get lasting relief, not just a short break from the discomfort.
If your neck pain has been hanging around for weeks or even months, you might be wondering why it has not settled down yet. The truth is, there are a few common reasons it sticks around far longer than it should. Here are some we see often at our clinic.
You thought it would ease with time, but it never really went away.
Your GP advised rest and tablets, but once the effects wore off, the discomfort returned.
A friend or family member told you neck pain is normal with age, so you accepted it.
You saw another healthcare provider, but the advice or treatment did not make a lasting difference.
Things like heat pads, neck pillows, or gadgets may have felt nice for a while but did not fix the problem.
You avoided moving your neck to prevent pain, but this made the muscles weaker and the stiffness worse.
A massage or two helped you feel relaxed, but the pain returned within days.
If any of these sound familiar, the good news is that we can help you take the next step towards a proper solution. At Manor Clinic, we identify what is really going on and create a tailored plan that works for you, not just for today but for the long term.

Request A Call BackNeck pain does not usually vanish overnight, but with the right approach, you can make real progress and stop it from coming back. Here are four steps we recommend to our patients.
Many people wait weeks or months hoping the pain will fade on its own. In reality, the sooner you seek the right treatment, the sooner you can get back to normal life.
Not all stretches and exercises are suitable for every type of neck pain. A physiotherapist can give you a specific programme to strengthen and mobilise the right muscles, reduce tension, and improve movement without causing further irritation.
Poor posture at a desk or an awkward sleeping position can put extra strain on the neck. Small changes, along with targeted strengthening, can make a big difference in preventing flare-ups.
Physiotherapy is one of the most effective ways to address neck pain. Gentle, targeted treatment can help ease stiffness, restore movement, and reduce discomfort. It also tackles the root cause, not just the symptoms, which means longer-lasting results.
At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, we understand how much ongoing neck pain can affect your daily life. Our physiotherapists are trained to get to the root of the problem quickly and provide care that actually works, not just temporary relief. Here’s what you can expect when you choose us.
