in Start here and say hello!

I noticed a person post about trampoline park and that her son has Downs Syndrome.

Please be warned a person with Downs Syndrome must NOT trampoline if they have the spur on the Atlanto Axial joint.. This can only be found out if they have had the scan to see if they have the spur or not.

As a qualified trampoline coach - we ask for this scan (if not already had) before they can trampoline as trampolining can cause paralysis.

Don't wish to alarm anyone.

    Hey there @DebD and it's a big welcome to the community from me too.

    Thanks for letting us know about the spur on the Atlanto Axial joint, that's very useful information to know.
