JLCSportsTherapy

A Sports Therapists job is a lot more than getting you lying on a treatment table.

Our job is to understand what’s stopping you doing what you want to do, help you understand the problem, manage the symptoms and build a plan to get you back there.

Sometimes hands-on treatment is useful. Sometimes we need to modify your training. Sometimes you need to get stronger. Most of the time, it’s a combination.

The goal isn’t to keep you coming back forever.

It’s to give you the confidence and capacity to get back to doing your thing. 💪

⭐️Client Success⭐️

👏Congrats to one of our long term clients Christopher on completing the Hillsborough Half Marathon over the weekend.

Christopher had been with us for almost 2 years now and has went from someone who had never stepped foot in a gym or even ran before to throwing himself at every challenge and opportunity going, the growth of character and confidence we have witnessed as he’s progressed has been amazing.

🏃He’s now working hard towards a second and third half marathon in August/September and the Belfast full marathon next May.

Keep smashing it 💪

As of 1st August 2026 , we’ll be making a small adjustment to our pricing.

This isn’t a decision I’ve taken lightly. Like many small businesses, i’ve seen the cost of running the clinic continue to rise over the past 2 years. To continue providing the standard you expect, maintain our facilities, invest in new equipment and staff, and give every client the time and attention they deserve, a price increase has unfortunately become necessary.

I want to thank every one of you for your continued support and trust in us. It’s because of our loyal clients that JLCSportsTherapy has been able to do things that I didn’t think were possible when I first started the business in a small cubicle in Wolverhampton University library.

Any appointments booked before 1st August will be honoured at our current prices, even if the appointment itself takes place after the price change.

I truly appreciate your understanding and continued support, and we look forward to helping you move better, recover stronger, and achieve your goals for many years to come.

If you have any questions about the new pricing, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Thank you again for supporting a local business, it genuinely means a lot.

🎉Congrats to Elijah one of our Junior Athletes on their recent successes.

🥇Elijah managed to pick up a rather large haul of medals and trophies at his final sports day at Dunclug College

🏋️Elijah has been training with us for 8 months now and has been getting on tremendously.

🏒Elijah has also been seeing great improvements out on the ice hockey rink for both Junior Belfast Giants and Scottish Ice Hockey and is now looking forward to an upcoming training camp in Finland over the summer.

Keep up the excellent work and we look forward to seeing what happens in the future!!

❗️Let’s talk posture❗️

On Monday we touched on how today’s society forces us to sit more than it forces us to be active and how that can cause pain in the lower back.

So we thought why not show you how you should sit, meet Ross and Rachel.

🧔‍♂️Ross
❌Likes to Slouch forward in his chair and has a very rounded upper spine and very flat lower spine
❌Daily pain in his back while he works and is starting to develop chronic back issues
❌Neck Pain and Migraines daily
❌Hips Feel as if they will need replaced by 40 years old
❌Can’t concentrate on his Job

👩‍🦰Rachel
✅Maintains a neutral spine position when seated
✅ No lower back pain while working and has a healthy moving spine
✅No Neck pain or Migraines
✅Joints feel mobile
✅Full of energy and focus

I’m not sure about you but I would far rather be a Rachel than a Ross.

Take care of your back and it’ll take care of you
