🩵🩵🩵 Dear SSG family 🩵🩵🩵

As we celebrate 18years of Sports & Spinal Group this week our heart is full of gratitude. What a journey it’s been from the humble beginnings to the incredible community we have become!!

To the amazing team…past and present…thank you for your dedication, laughter, care, and heart. You have each brought something special to this place, and together we have created more than a workplace… we have built a family.

And to our beautiful patients thank you for trusting us with your care, for sharing your stories, and for allowing us to be part of your lives. It’s been one of our greatest privileges to walk alongside you all these years.

Here’s to the growth, the memories, and the magic we have shared and to the bright future still ahead. COVID may have thrown a spanner in the works and jumbled our numbers and perception of how many years it’s been!!

With love and deep appreciation
Jel & Brett 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

3 Exercises to improve your core -

Your core is far more than just “abs.” It’s the powerhouse that keeps your whole body moving well. A strong core stabilizes your spine, supports healthy movement patterns, and transfers force efficiently between your upper and lower body.

🌼 This weekend was a powerful one with the four-day seminar led by the wonderful Paediatic Osteopath, Ian Wright ,The Flowering of Potential – Working with Neurodiversity 🌼

Ian’s course took us deep into how we can honour and support neurodiversity including conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyspraxia, dyslexia, sensory processing differences, and cognitive/behavioural challenges.

We looked not just at treatment techniques, but at the developmental, prenatal and perinatal factors that shape the central nervous system and how early life, trauma, and developmental patterns influence how someone shows up.

Recognising potential rather than “fixing deficit” and Ian’s framing of “flowering potential” shifts the lens from what’s “wrong” to what’s ready to grow.

The importance of developmental history: pregnancy, birth, early environment all of which can contribute to how someone’s nervous system is wired and how they function.

Gentle, biodynamic and embodied approaches matter. These aren’t simply techniques but ways of being with a child in their body, nervous system and the world.

Thank you to Ian Wright for his depth, clarity and heart in delivering this seminar 🙏🏼

Today the Daisy Clinic was run for children and their families with a group of Osteopaths modelling what inclusive, specialist paediatric osteopathy care can be.

And thank you to our community and peers for showing up as this is how we raise the bar together 💛

Thank you Emma Loftus Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy for Horses and Humans for organising such an amazing course 🙏🏼 and Ian Wright Clonmel Osteopaths for all you do and give ❤️🤩

Having headaches regularly? We can help! -

Headaches can disrupt your day, making it difficult to focus, work, or unwind. Often, the causes go beyond the pain itself—shallow breathing patterns can build neck and shoulder tension, while dietary triggers such as caffeine, alcohol, or processed sugars may increase headache frequency.
