Struggling to reach overhead, carry a bag, or even find a comfortable position in bed? Many people in Sevenoaks wake up each day with that same stubborn shoulder ache, hoping it will pass on its own.
You may have tried painkillers, hot packs, or “waiting it out.” Maybe you’ve cut back on activities you love, thinking rest would do the trick. Yet the stiffness and discomfort are still there, affecting your work, your sleep, and your mood.
At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, our expert physiotherapists help people ease shoulder pain using safe and effective treatment. No endless tablets. No unnecessary procedures. Just clear guidance, gentle hands-on care, and tailored exercises that bring lasting relief.
With decades of trusted experience and thousands of patients helped across Kent, you will be in skilled and supportive hands from your very first visit.
Many people believe shoulder pain will ease with time. A few days of rest, a tablet or two, maybe an ice pack. It feels better for a moment, but before long the stiffness and ache creep back.
At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, we often meet people who have been living this cycle for weeks or even months. They try to avoid painful movements, stop playing sport, or carry on with the help of painkillers. These things help in the short term, but they do not allow the shoulder to heal fully.
The shoulder is a hardworking joint. It supports you in almost everything you do, from lifting and reaching to dressing and sleeping. Without the right guidance, it rarely recovers on its own.
The hopeful part is that once the root cause is treated, pain begins to fade, movement feels easier, and daily life becomes lighter again.
When people visit Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, their stories often sound familiar. They rest, take advice, try gentle massage, or use ice packs. Some pause activities like tennis or swimming. Others change how they lift shopping or carry their children.
These steps bring some comfort, but the shoulder often needs more support to recover fully. That is where we can help.
Our team listens carefully, not only to the pain but also to how it affects daily life. By finding the real cause and guiding recovery step by step, we help people return to the things they love with confidence.
Every week, we see shoulders that once felt stiff or heavy begin to move with ease. Watching our patients lift, stretch, and rest without discomfort is the most rewarding part of what we do.
Taking the first step toward treatment can feel uncertain, but at Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, we make it simple. That's why we offer a free introductory session.
During this visit, you will:
There is no cost and no obligation. It is simply a chance to ask questions, understand your shoulder better, and feel supported from the very beginning.
Many people tell us that after this first conversation, they feel more confident and hopeful about moving forward.
If your shoulder pain has been troubling you for weeks or even months, here are the most common reasons we see at Manor Clinic
You hoped it would ease on its own, but the discomfort kept returning. Time alone isn't always the healer we want it to be.
Painkillers dull the ache for a while, but once they wear off, the problem is still there. They mask symptoms without addressing the root cause.
Avoiding movement may feel safe, but it can leave the shoulder weaker and stiffer, creating a cycle of reduced mobility.
Heat packs, supports, or gadgets give short relief, but they don't solve the underlying cause of your shoulder pain.
Friends may say shoulder pain is normal as you get older, but that doesn't mean you must live with it. Age doesn't have to mean pain.
Some people try other treatments that help briefly, only for the pain to return. Without proper diagnosis, relief is often temporary.
Shoulder pain rarely disappears overnight, but with the right approach, real progress can be made. At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, we guide our patients through these simple steps:
Many people wait weeks or months, hoping the pain will fade. The sooner you seek proper treatment, the sooner you can feel like yourself again.
Not all stretches or movements are safe for every type of pain. Our physiotherapists create a programme designed for your shoulder, building strength and easing tension safely.
How you sit at work, how you lift, and even how you sleep can affect your shoulder. Simple adjustments, combined with guided care, can prevent the pain from returning.
Gentle, targeted treatment helps restore movement, reduce stiffness, and tackle the root cause, not just the symptoms.
By combining these steps, you can rebuild strength, regain freedom, and enjoy life without your shoulder holding you back.
At Manor Clinic in Sevenoaks, our focus is not just easing pain for a few days. We want you to sleep better, move freely, and get back to the things that make life enjoyable. Here is how we make that possible:
Many patients notice their shoulder feels lighter and freer within the first few sessions. Progress is steady, and each step makes daily life easier.
When pain does not disturb your sleep, you wake up rested and ready to take on the day with more energy.
Tablets may mask the pain, but our approach tackles the cause. Over time, most people find they no longer need to rely on medication.
We use gentle, proven techniques that restore strength and mobility, helping you avoid unnecessary injections or surgery.
Whether it is lifting your children, playing sport, or enjoying gardening, our goal is to give you the confidence to move without fear.
