Hospice to Hospice Half Marathon 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Huge respect to everyone taking on the Jersey Hospice to Hospice half marathon!

This isn't just about the miles - it's about running for a cause that touches so many lives in our island community. Jersey Hospice Care provides incredible support to islanders and their families during the most challenging times.

To all our clients and friends running: you've trained hard, you're ready, and you're running for something truly meaningful. We're so proud of you!

Good luck and enjoy every step! 💙

What a week! 🙌

We've said a fond farewell to Hugo, who has decided to head back home. Hugo — you've been a wonderful part of the team and we wish you all the very best in your next chapter. You'll be missed! ❤️

Meanwhile, it's been an absolute whirlwind here at the clinic — so busy we've barely had time to do our own exercises. Not exactly a great advert for us, we know! 😄

But the weekend is here and we couldn't be more excited for what's ahead.

Tomorrow, both the Jersey Rugby Club men's and women's teams are in action — which means Lisa and Claire will be pitchside. Claire, we hope it's a quiet one for you… because you're going to need your legs on Sunday! 🏉

Claire, Kyle and Julie — along with so many of our wonderful clients — are lining up for the Jersey Hospice Care Half Marathon.

Whether you're going out to compete or simply to complete, it's one of those days that reminds you what community is all about. We're so proud of everyone taking part, how hard you have worked and trained, and in awe of the cause you're supporting. 💙

Go give it everything you've got. Run strong. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

A Chara,

Wishing you all a very happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀

May we celebrate our culture, our heritage, and the spirit that binds us together. Whether you're marking the day with family, friends, or simply taking a moment to reflect on what it means to be Irish, I hope it's filled with joy and pride.

Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit!

Been feeling a bit flat this winter? There's a good reason for that — and it's not just the weather getting you down in the usual sense.
Our brains run on a light-dependent operating system. Serotonin — the hormone that regulates mood — is triggered by low-level UV light hitting the retina directly. Not warmth. Not bright indoor light. Actual daylight.
Jersey has just had its third wettest February since records began. When cloud cover reduces lux levels, serotonin can drop within hours. Research found a 27% increase in reported low mood on overcast days, even among people with no history of depression.
You are not moody. You are light-powered, and your fuel source is external.
Take advantage of whatever daylight we have — even on dull days, getting outside makes a genuine difference. Your body is responding to real, measurable changes in your environment. 🌥️

We take staff well-being seriously at the JSSC, and today that meant sports yoga 🧘🧘‍♀️with the wonderful Boote.

Now we are a Clinic full of people who know a lot about bodies. Turns out that doesn’t make Yoga any quieter 😬There were grunts. There was straining. There were sounds we will not be describing further.

But honestly? We all floated out of their feeling completely Zen and gloriously loose.

We invest in our team, socially, physically and mentally, because a happy team means better care for everyone who walks through our door.
Thank you Matt you are a legend. 🙏

Thought provoking session tonight with the adult teams: players, coaching and medical teams.
This club really cares for the welfare of all those involved and involving this great charity is testament to this. Thanks LooseHeadz

Great to welcome LooseHeadz Rugby mental health charity to Jersey 🙌

50 players from our Men & Women sides attended a Workshop put on by the charity.

LooseHeadz uses the power of rugby to start conversations, tackle the stigma, and save lives.

Jersey RFC has its own ‘Loose head‘ Huw Owen who is our point of contact through the charity for our players, coaches etc and can provide and guide them with any information and help they may need.

On average, 1 person dies by su***de every 40 seconds around the world, that’s around 700,000 people per year. And the problem only seems to be getting worse, with the su***de rate increasing by around 36% between 2000-2001

If you are a rugby Club/ Sports club and want to know more about the charity and how it can help please drop us a message !

Thanks for the amazing work you do Looseheadz !

Happy International Women's Day! 🌸
As Michelle Obama so beautifully put it — "There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish."
Today we celebrate the remarkable women in our clinic who embody that sentiment every single day. Their skill, dedication, and compassion make an extraordinary difference to every client who walks through our door.
We are incredibly proud of this team. Here's to them — and to all the women making a difference in healthcare across Jersey and beyond.

Yesterday Kyle was humbled to receive this glowing testimonial from a very happy client. Thank you, we are delighted to know that your life is better as a result of you time with us.

What a weekend to be a rugby fan — and a rugby physio. 🏉
I'm settling in to watch Ireland v Wales, but my thoughts are already on tomorrow, when Jersey Rugby Club face Bracknell in what could be a historic match. A win means promotion to the 4th tier of English rugby — and knowing this group, I have every confidence in them.
The shirt you see here holds a special place for me. It was signed by the players who secured promotion to the Championship during my first chapter at the club. Reflecting on that achievement — and now being part of a second chapter — reminds me just how privileged I am to do what I do.
To the players, coaches, and medical team: it's an honour. Come on Jersey! 🔴⚫

Today our team had the pleasure of a fantastic teaching session led by Holly, focused on frozen shoulder – a condition we see regularly here in Jersey.

Hollie bought us up-to-date with the latest evidence exploring the links between frozen shoulder and metabolic disease and menopause, shedding New light and why this condition is so prevalent in our community.

The session was hands-on and practical, giving us the opportunity to refine our techniques and approaches for restoring showroom mobility and reducing pain for our clients.

A huge thank you to Hollie for such an informative and an inspiring session we feel we left feeling enlightened and energised
